Not believing any god or any supernatural force/being. Atheists believe in fact, logic, and what is proven.
Atheism is NOT a religion!!!
•Atheism has nothing to do with satanism. If it did, the person wouldn't be atheist. Satan is supposedly a supernatural being, therefore, they do not believe in Satan. Just because you don't believe in a religion, that does not mean that you are automatically a Satanist.
•People call atheists evil, the Antichrist, and whatnot. Probably in religious peoples' eyes, they are evil.
Most Atheists don't go up to a religious person and start bagging on them and their religion. For the record, I have never seen another religious person who isn't a Christian make fun of Atheists and call them pussies and devils and other stuff. It's because of this, that Christians are the ones targeted by Atheists most when making fun of the religion. And because of THIS, Christians make fun of Atheists more than any other religion. So it's kind of like a war between Atheists and Christians.
•Some people also say that Atheists believe that we all came from monkeys or evolved from monkeys. That is also wrong. We didn't evolve nor come from monkeys; we had a common ANCESTOR as apes, monkeys, etc. Don't get me wrong about evolution though. There IS evolution in bacteria, cells, and even some animals (probably). Some diseases are bad, but if not cured in time, they may evolve into a more worse disease that may be incurable.

~This part is for bad Christians~
(When I say bad, I'm not saying you suck, just saying you aren't following your own religion and it's rules)
•Christians who constantly say bad things about atheism, get mad at atheism, say they will kill people who are atheism...isn't that a sin in your religion? Aren't religious people suppose to be good and not do bad things? Like stealing and beating someone up because of a color they are wearing or a color of their skin? Isn't it bad to lose your virginity when you're still in high school or middle school still? Isn't it also bad to do your best friend's spouse? Or even lie about something you did? If say you are a Christian and say you are a good Christian, why do I still see people do these things? Why do I hear people say they don't care about their parents and are always bad to their parents? They might have done wrong in the past, or are still doing wrong, but they're your parents, you can help them change. No matter how much they refuse to change. Help them if they're struggling.
Person 1: Are you of the religion of Atheism? Aren't you guys evil and believe in the Devil?
Person 2: No, I am an Atheist. I don't believe in any religion or any god. I believe in facts and what can be proven. I don't believe we are monkeys nor came from them. If you are to make fun of me, then so be it.

Get the Atheism mug.
some argue the state and atheists have cause over 100 million deaths. Nothing compared to the sheer number of deaths that have been cause by religion and theism in the past (crusades) and the simple halt of progress that the church has created (inquisition). Also, violence based on God continues today in the Middle East. But atheists are bad because they don't have faith in something that has no logical merit.
According to Roman Catholic tradition and scripture, one is to have faith in something without proof, like God or Jesus. However, I can easily say "I am Jesus 2005, follow me" and you must follow me without any logical reason or proof, because you're supposed to have faith. Makes sense.

Get the Atheism mug.
The most logical theological position to take. The belief that god does not exist.
An example of Atheism? I don't know what to put here.

Get the Atheism mug.
The rejection of theism, or belief that there is no omnipotent being that controls or created anything. The atheist leaves little to subjectivity beyond this, and generally only relies on what is observable and provable.

Atheism relies heavily on science for explanation. The only induction allowed in science is in the basic properties of matter that are so fundamental that they can not be proven to exist by anything else (the same way a statement can not cite itself as a proof), but are easily observable and thus held to be true. Science holds true only what can be observed.

Get the Atheism mug.
The belief that your belief sucks
Christianity is stupid because they believe in god, atheism doesn't involve that so atheists agree that Christianity is stupid

Get the Atheism mug.
The belief that there was nothing and nothing happened to nothing and then nothing magically exploded for no reason, creating everything and then a bunch of everything magically rearranged itself for no reason whatsoever into self replicating bits which then turned into dinosaurs.
