using the word heretic to describe an atheist. It’s just not what it’s about. You’re not part of a theistic religion if you don’t believe in God. And if you’re not part of it, you won’t be a heretic.
Atheism is contrary to theistic religious doctrine- namely, the doctrine that a god or gods exist. That’s literally the definition of heresy as I provided.
ok man, I tried, the dictionary was of no help, maybe consult wikipedia or turn to a priest. He will also tell you that an atheist is not considered a heretic. And if you go on like this with him, he’ll might make you a heretic. But only! if you are a follower of his religion already. Otherwise he just won’t give a flying fuck.
What definition am I coming up with here?
Are you saying the existence of a god is not part of the doctrine of any theistic religion?

I literally provided a link to a Christian website talking about how atheists are heretics.
And “atheist” and “heretic” are literally the same word in Arabic, which means that, at minimum, 2 in 8 people believe that atheists are heretics.
