A person who holds a positive religious belief in a spontaneous, causeless, sourceless, purposeless and objectively meaningless existence.
Existentially, they often believe that at the origin of the Universe there was nothing, and that nothing exploded - creating everything; before a bunch of everything magically rearranged itself, for no reason whatsoever, into inexplicably self-replicating parts, which eventually developed into intelligent beings with inexplicable (or at least incomprehensible) capacities for reason, ethical judgement and aesthetic awareness...
As Xenocrates stated; “Without proof, belief is still belief – even if you believe in nothing.”

Someone who doesn’t believe in a higher power or god-like figure. Atheists are often unfairly stereotyped because they don’t believe in the same things as religious people. In fact, atheists are some of the most tolerant people out there. You see Christians hating on atheists and claiming it’s because they “follow the path of the devil”. How many Christians do you know that cuss? I’m an atheist, and I have never uttered a curse word in my entire life. Please stop this unfair hatred. I’m just believing in what I think is true, just like you.
Religious person: “You’re a (curse word) atheist? You must be a (curse word) terrible person”
Me: “At least I’m not cussing at you because you aren’t an atheist”
Me: “At least I’m not cussing at you because you aren’t an atheist”

1.One who is without religion
Despite common belief by stupid people, Athiests are not satanists nor are satanists athiests. Speaking as a Satanist we do not believe in god because we do not believe in any of the lie you have created for yourself. We do not believe that satan is a fallen angel or that other angels exist and there for no god. Its quite simple we believe that the race we worshipped as gods in Egypt, and many other early civilizations.
