1)The lack of belief in a god and/or higher beings.
2)A belief in theories that have only made sense on paper but have not ever been proven concretely as to determine how the Universe was made and how life on this earth came to be.
3)An extreme state of narrow-mindedness and pessimism in which one is sure that there can be no god because one's "logic" tells them that they cannot believe what they have not seen and therefore must believe that theories that were never physically proven hold the answer to our existance and that even when the real answer is right in front of our faces telling us that there could have been no other way but god one must deny that which makes at least some sense and dive into this state of maximum stupidity where one denies anything one did not see based on that and not an actual dose of logic.

1)I don't believe in god, therefore I must be atheist.
2)I fail to use common sense and see only through the eyes of a theory that was never and will never be proven, thus I must be atheist.
3)I think that the Universe was created by accident and I base this on thousands of theories which contradict each other and fail to offer concrete evidence of there being no god, therefore I must be atheist.
4)Atheism = Lack Common Sense

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 what so ever into self-replicating bits which then turned into dinosaurs.
Makes perfect sense to me!!
Makes perfect sense to me!!

A person who does not believe in God and the after life. It is sad, in that the person believes that there is no God. They live without hope. Someday when the person dies they go to Hell. If they had only believed in Christ and had been good people, they would have gone to Heaven.
Example of atheism:
Person 1: "Christ is truth."
Person 2: "I don't believe it."
Person 1 dies later *Goes to Heaven*
Person 2 dies later *Goes to Hell*
Person 1: "Christ is truth."
Person 2: "I don't believe it."
Person 1 dies later *Goes to Heaven*
Person 2 dies later *Goes to Hell*

Atheism is a belief system embraced by those who reject the moral teachings of Catholicism, especially those teachings against abortion and homosexuality.
Those who embrace atheisim often claim to do so because they think it is rational and scientific. Unfortunately most vocal atheists show a high level of irrational thought combined with a lack of factual knowledge.

Gay pop star Elton John:
"Religion should be outlawed because it lacks compassion and promotes hatred of homosexuals."
Okay Elton, have you got any proof that religious people on average have less compassion than atheists, or that they generally promote hatred of homosexual people? I guess not.
Gee Elton what a great argument for atheism! LOL.

The lack of belief in a deity or deities. Just that. Nothing else.
Atheism doesn't hold any answers to life's big questions. It won't tell you the meaning of life and it won't tell you how it all started. It's not a religion, not a philosophy, not a way of life. Atheism is quite simply *non-belief*.

#1: "I heard you're an atheist and don't believe in God, #2. If that's true then how did the universe begin?"
#2: "I don't know for sure. The leading scientific theory right now is the Big Bang theory, but that has a few problems and might not be correct."
#1: "If there's no God then where do we know right from wrong from?"
#2: "Again, I don't know for sure, but the general theory is that we evolved this feature because social creatures do better if unit cohesion isn't hindered by constant murdering."
Atheism isn't about answers. It's not really about anything, actually.

Atheism is absence of belief in god(s). It is not necessarily belief that no god(s) exist. Just as asexual is absence of sex in reproduction, not opposition to sex or asymmetrical is absence of symmetry, not opposition to symmetry. Atheism is simple absence of theism.
Frequently people confuse the theism vs atheism question with the gnostic vs agnostic question. The word gnostic means pertaining to knowledge. It is a question about whether a person is certain or "knows".
Everybody is either theist or atheist and everybody is either gnostic or agnostic. There are agnostic theists. They believe god(s) exist, but don't claim to know for sure personally. There are gnostic theists. They believe and claim to know for sure that god(s) exist. There are agnostic atheists. They do not believe in god(s), but do not claim to know with certainty that no god exists. There are also gnostic atheists who claim to know that no god exists. It possible and quite common among atheists to not have been convinced of the hypothesis that god(s) exist without taking the position that no god exists.
