What is the name for modern atheists?

[Kingpin]

Bambi,

I appreciate you asking the question, I think it's a good one.  What I find is that unlike religious ideologies where there are core beliefs and subsequent beliefs which delineates the sect of the core belief, Atheism spouses one belief and one only:  There is no God or Gods.  Out of that there are no subsequent beliefs.  Evolution is separate and there are atheists who accept evolution and atheists who think it has serious issues, but it has nothing to do with their atheism.  I honestly think Atheist has no sect, nor needs one.  They are not espousing a belief in anything requiring sub-categorization, they are only espousing a single statement about a specific topic.  No God.  

At best, you will get agnostic atheist or gnostic atheist.  There are some that are not comfortable with the logic of making a definitive statement about something unknowable, others are fine with it.

See you get it. That makes one Christian who actually knows what atheism is.

Those years of studying have finally paid off!

Seriously I'm with you guys though on when people over complicate what atheism is.  It is not a belief system.  "System" means there are further beliefs/statements to be made.  It is a belief, in so much that people are saying they believe there is no such thing as God, or that they have no reason to believe there is a God.  When i see it called what it isn't, I tend to chime in.
