Listen, the only common thread between Atheists is the total disbelief in supernatural deities and their afterlifes. Other than that, they're individuals, not adhering to any dogmas and such.

Answer 2

1. An atheist is someone who doesn't believe in any godds.

2. Atheism has been around since at least the time of Socrates and has probably popped up in every culture.  Even the Bible talks of the 'fool that says in his heart there is no god,' so atheism wasn't unknown in that time and place.

3. There isn't one.  Atheists don't have meetings.

4. That there are no gods running our lives.

It seems to me that you are misinformed about atheist, first of all atheism isn't a religion so there is no church, every atheist believes in something different and there are many famous Atheist. The word atheist means without god greek roots, as for the britney spears thing I do not know what you're thinking about. so....

Answer 16

I think you might not know what you're talking about. You should try learning this stuff on your own, first, then maybe asking better questions on here. And, please, don't turn anything like these questions into your teacher. You will most definitely get a bad grade.

Answer 18

I started to answer this question seriously. Then I saw #9.

p**s off, you little smart @$$.  

Answer 19

1) A person who does not believe in the existence of (a) god(s).

2) It has always existed - from the dawn of human consciousness if you want to get technical. It is the default position on the subject.

3) You did.

4) I believe in love, decency, human intelligence and the possibility there is hope for everybody.

5) it's from greek, from the word "theos" which means ''god' and the prefix "a-" which means 'none' or 'without'. You can interpret it to mean someone has no god, or no religion (no theism).

6) George Bush. Most people, however, do not realize this.

7) A Scandinavian state. I think it's Sweden. Not sure, however.

8) There is no church and therefore no entry fee.

Answer 20

1.  An atheist is a person who lacks belief in gods.

3.  There is no atheist church.

4.  The single defining characteristic of atheism is a lack of belief in gods.

5.  a = without theo = god.  

6.  I have no idea.

They don't get together because they are capable of independent thought.

Answer 22

1 One that does not believe in a god or gods.

2. Atheism has been around as long as religion if not earlier.  The earliest atheistic writings date back to 300 BCE in Greece, however the default human position is to not have a belief in anything until told to do so by their parents.

3. Atheism is not a religion and does not have a church.

4. If there isn't evidence to support it I don't believe it.

6. I don't know and don't really care.

7. Unsure but many European countries are becoming predominately atheist.

9. No,  I don't worship anything.  

Answer 23

Atheist church???

<snigger>

If you want to be taken seriously then PLEASE dont use text speak for starters. ;)

Answer 24

9.  WTF x 2?

Answer 26

I have a hard time believing a teacher would actually ask these kinds of questions.  Some of the answers can be found easily in any dictionary, like 1 and 5.  Some can be researched on the web, like 6.  The rest are idiotic and wouldn't follow if you knew the definition of the word atheist.

And we don't feel the need to get together to support our atheism, unlike proponents of religions.  Our knowledge is sufficient and doesn't need validating by getting together in a group.

Answer 27

Don't play!

Worshiping Britney is like cuttting your d**k off.

There is no reason to and you will a whole lot better if you don't.

Answer 28

This is something you should be researching yourself :)

hahaha worshipping britney spears, perhaps some atheists do, like that crazy chris crocker guy.

Answer 29

These questions are ridiculous.

There is no "athiest church." thats an oxymoron considering that atheists don't believe in a church. And no we do not worship Britney Spears. The whole point of Atheism is NOT to worship anyone or anything.

Atheism is simple. No such thing God, just reality.

Answer 30

1. A person who does not believe in gods.

2. The concept has always existed, for as long as there have been people there have been people who did not believe in gods.  

3. There is none.

4. Not gods.  That's about it.  Of course individual atheists have other beliefs, but the absence of belief in gods is the only thing common to all atheists.

5. It comes from Ancient Greek, and took on something close to its current meaning around the 5th century BCE.

6. I really couldn't say.

7. Possibly China, although it's hard to get accurate statistics from them of course.  If you mean which country has the highest percentage of atheists (rather than the largest population of atheists) then probably Sweden.

8. There isn't one.

9. Nope.  Well not all of us anyway.
