There is a difference between not adhering to a religion and being atheist, you know.
You could always just be totally nihilistic about the existence of a higher power, but if you do not believe in any deities, like it or not, you're an atheist. I mean, it's not so much a label... it's just what it's called.

Okay, but that's nonspecific. A person with no religion could also believe in God, or be unsure of God's existence or nonexistence. An athiest does not believe in the presence of a higher being.

Not where I'm from. To be an atheist is to be a satanist. I'm sick of it. Hopefully I'll be moving soon. It doesn't matter what the definitions or terms are of the word. Pople around here are too stupid an arrogant to
wan't to be correct and sensible.
