Just beginning to read this thread but I'm already willing to bet that it isn't atheism per se which the OP finds self contradicting but the assertion that: gods do not exist.
Can anyone save me the bother of finding out if the OP thinks it is self contradicting to answer the question "do you believe in gods?" with a simple "no"?
