The dictionary of Atheist is:

A (without) + theism (belief in god) = Atheism

There are also several kinds of atheism.

Atheist: I do not believe in god.

Agnostic atheist: I accept that gods cannot be proven or disproven but I personally do not believe a god exists.

Gnostic atheist: I KNOW there is no god

What being an atheist means to you and your life:

  • You can't fall back on all the religious reasoning (e.g. It must means something! I hope I can be delivered from this pain! Help me god!)
  • There is no reward for your good woks except your good works
  • You don't have to pay for a priesthood to blame it all on you
  • No miracles
  • No welcoming community of religious people to comfort you
  • Your dead friends, parents and dogs are really gone - forever
  • Many people hate you, mistrust you and fear you.
  • Endless conversion attempts by theist acquaintances
  • You have to live by your moral values not someone else's
