either the belief that there is no god, or the belief that humanity doesn't know enough to make assumptions that lean in any particular direction. not to be confused with satanism which is in fact a religion. atheism is NOT a religion but a lack thereof.
billions of people have died in history by people killing in the name of various gods or religions.
atheism is a bit less violent in most situations, dont you think?

Atheism is not exactly a religion. It is not synonymous with satanism at all, in fact, atheists reject him as well. Atheists can be crazed and apprehensive a la christian fanatics, but nowhere did I say every atheist can be like that. It's common for them to follow science because it seems more logical to them. The inverse applies to some christians as well. Last, but most important, most atheists ARE NOT EVIL.
Atheist: I'm an atheist.

Crazed Christian: You horrible, horrible scum! You and your demonic kind are killing millions with your atheism lies!

Okay Christian: Calm down. He never hurt anybody. You did. Remember last year at that atheist support festival?

Crazed Christian: (fleeing) You'll all burn forever! Gagh!

*Sigh* Okay, let me get this strait for most of you idiots.

Atheism does not mean you worship Satan.

Atheism means you believe in NO God of ANY type WHATSOEVER.

It is the doctrine or belief that there is no God
Christian: "You don't believe in God, so that means you're an evil Satanist."

Atheist: "No, it means I don't believe in some Jewish zombie that I somehow have to telepathically worship. Atheism means I believe that life came from science."

okay. well atheism actually makes sense if you think about it. there's no freaking god or any force controlling your life. face it. you screw up. that's your problem. but instead.. our society likes to turn all their problems into some little imginary friend's problems in which we like to call "god." get out of your stupid state of denial. if he's there or another force is or whatever where the hell is it? up your ass? yeah that's what i thought. guess what... go take a reality check, it's the most impracticable thing ever.

oh and just for the record.. atheism isn't connected with satanism. at all. you're just too dumb to know that. atheists aren't evil. just because they don't follow the ridiculousness and ignorance of "god" and the propagandistic antics of the bible doesn't mean that they're bad people. so go to hell. you sinning hypocrites. get over yourselves.
Person1: What happens if i don't do everything god tells me to?
Person2: YOU'LL DIE AND GO TO HELL! AHHHHHHHH
Person1: Isn't that dictatorship?
Person2: OF COURSE NOT!!
Person1: How is it not dictatorship?
Person2: Because he's god.. duhhh
Person1: Righttt... Hitler much?
Person2: IF YOU'RE NOT GOING TO BOW DOWN TO GOD AND HIS EVERY MOVE THEN JUST GO STUDY ATHEISM!!
Person1: Stop being so asinine, just go have butt sex with him or something.. god.

The belief that in the beginning there was nothing, and nothing was something, and nothing created something.
Guy 1: Hey, space, time and matter had a beginning, even Stephen Hawking admitted this, so whatever created space, time and matter must be spaceless, timeless and immaterial. Also intelligent and personal, because only persons can make choices, intelligent choices for that matter. If one imperceptible variable had been different at the beginning, the Universe would have never developed or it would have collapsed, yet here it is, perfectly designed to host life.
Guy 2: No, we just live in one Universe out of many, that's why it seems perfectly designed, they were all created by the multiverse generator, which was created by the generator of multiverse generators.
Guy 1: And all the way back to infinity, right? Science can't step out of its boundaries to discover the beginning of the Universe because it is limited by the laws of nature. By the way, are you aware of the extreme extra-biblical historical evidence that confirms the legitimacy of the New Testament and the resurrection of Jesus? You should read some William Lane Craig and John Lennox to get a better insight.

Guy 2: HAHA ATHEISM SMART JESUS NOT REAL SKY DADDY FAIRY TALE IF GOD EXISTS WHY BAD THINGS I JUST WANT TO JERK OFF AND BE HAPPY ABOUT IT

Guy 1: Ok, good luck then, we all have a God-given free will to make our own choices, Jesus still loves you enough not to force you into His presence.

Either 1) a lack of belief in god/supernatural being due to lack of evidence (weak evidence=agnosticism), or 2) denial of the existance of god/supernatural being. Despite some definitions listed here, atheism does not in its-self attack a single other religion-it is simply a lack of belief in a god. Some might be Satanist-which is by definition not atheism as it requires unfounded faith in a supernatural being ('Satan'); science, in most accepted definitions by scientists, involves testing and falsifying or corroborating of an idea, not stating "fact", and a claim to a supernatural being/god/God is not testable by purely scientific methods.
I agree with atheism because there is no credible evidence for God-only faith in texts that are open to interpretation.

Well, I used to live a blinded life, led by a fictional superbeing that cannot possibly exist in this dimension, but then I thought: "what the hell am I doing?" So, I chose the path of atheism.
