	Atheist Revolution
		An atheist is someone who does not accept the theistic claim (i.e., a god or gods exist).
		Rob Sherman, atheist activist and father of a high school student who successfully campaigned to remove "God Bless America" from the list of songs to be played at her Homecoming Dance (yeah, that's a great one for dancing), is the victim.
		Nonbelievers, especially atheists, are constantly bombarded with misconceptions about what they believe and who they are from the mainstream media.

	Atheism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Some weak atheists are without any opinion regarding the existence of deities, either because of a lack of thought on the matter, a lack of interest in the matter (see apatheism), or a belief that the arguments and evidence provided by both theists and strong atheists are equally unpersuasive.
		Some weak atheists feel that theism and strong atheism are equally untenable, on the grounds that faith is required both to assert and to deny the existence of deities, and as such both theism and strong atheism have the burden of proof placed on them to prove that a god does or doesn't exist.
		Atheists reject this view and assert that they are as motivated towards moral behavior as anyone, citing possible non-theistic sources of moral behavior such as: their upbringing; natural empathy, compassion and a human concern for others; respect for order, society, and law; and a desire for a good reputation and self-esteem.

	Atheism is illogical (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-27)
		If you succeed in showing an atheist the natural outcome of some of his (or her) main claims and arguments, you are in a much better position to share the gospel with him.
		Atheists often charge that theism is a crutch because people are motivated to believe in God because that belief gives meaning, hope, and order to their world.
		Alvin Plantinga correctly argues that the atheist does not treat the statements "God exists" and "God does not exist" in the same manner.5 The atheist assumes that if one has no evidence for God's existence, then one is obligated to believe that God does not exist whether or not one has evidence against God's existence.

	The Atheism Web: Introduction to Atheism (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-27)
		Many atheists feel that the idea of God as presented by the major religions is essentially self-contradictory, and that it is logically impossible that such a God could exist.
		Atheists view morality as something created by humans, according to the way humans feel the world 'ought' to work, rather than seeing it as a set of rules decreed by a supernatural being.
		Atheists therefore tend to feel that they are unlikely to be proved wrong in the immediate future, and they stop worrying about it.

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Atheism
		In this sense too, the early Christians were known to the pagans as atheists, because they denied the heathen gods; while, from time to time, various religious and philisophical systems have, for similar reasons, been deemed atheistic.
		By the Atheist I understand the man who not only holds off, like the sceptic, from the affirmative, but who drives himself, or is driven, to the negative assertion in regard to the whole unseen, or to the existence of God.
		Consequently, while it would be unjust to class agnostics, materialists, or pantheists as necessarily also atheists, it cannot be denied that atheism is clearly perceived to be implied in certain phases of all these systems.

	ATHEISM: (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-27)
		Most Atheists have analyzed the available material evidence for the existence of one or more deities (gods and/or goddesses) and have concluded that there is no real evidence of the existence of gods or goddesses.

	The Raving Atheist
		The factions seem to be Cooper's cult of Ayn Rand, whose adherents believe that in the absence of God pure reason dictates an ethic of capitalistic selfishness, and Draper's nihilism, which holds that godlessness implies nothing.
		An enormous debt of gratitude is also owed to Dawn Eden, who has worked quietly but tirelessly behind the scenes to promote the book for many months -- even while on tour for her own book -- and whose selfless efforts are largely responsible for bringing the book the attention it deserves.
		Ray was responding to this article earlier that month about atheists, including Chicago-area nurse Gail Pepin, who were mourning the then-recent 9/11 attacks but felt excluded because the nation was unifying "under God."

	Atheist - Death Metal
		Using a heavy basis of fusion jazz, Atheist twist high-speed progressive death metal riffs into a series of motifs which as a whole express a melody structurally as a series of themes centrally referent by degree of consonance of modal compatibility with an overall melody.
		The consequence of this exploratory and ambitious method is a wealth of potential notes and harmonies within which to play, allowing the alacritous expression of a fluid lead guitar style awake to fifty years of blues, jazz, rock and metal yet still alive on its own.
		Trying too hard to mix mainstream-recognizable progressive jazz into their metal, Atheist make an album that is a mix between intelligently shredding metal and something like Phish, complete with the quirky randomness and other humorous self-referentiality that makes for excellent jazz but tragically poor metal.
