Atheism is not a religion. There are no beliefs involved in being an atheist. None. It is simply a disbelief in deities and supernatural entities. Nothing more.

Incorrect. Furthermore, atheism is intellectually dishonest by definition, as admitted by the noted atheist Isaac Azimov. Atheism makes a judgement about a domain which it readily admits is not open to investigation. In effect, atheism claims to "prove" a negative.

Nope. I don't try to prove anything at all. I simply disbelieve.
