RE: Defining "Atheism"

I think atheism isn't the lack of belief, it's the lack of faith. No one can really believe in nothing, everyone has to have some belief, even if it's wrong. However atheism is the lack of faith. People who believe in deities such as God have a faith in them. They have faith in the bible, because no matter how stupid it gets they still follow their life by it. Atheists don't have this faith in science, because they have the support of empirical evidence, there's no need for faith.
