Is atheism ever a faith?

Poll: Can atheism ever be based on faith?
This poll is closed.
Possibly because atheism could be based not only on evidence but also on preference or intuition, this would be faith in atheism.

Never, atheism always contradicts faith. There is no faith without belief in the supernatural.

Hmmm I guess what you're suggesting might be the possiblity of not an atheist religon but more of a sort of atheistic 'cult'.

Well the true definiton of atheism is nothing more than strong disbelief in God and the supernatural. Or just God.
Futhermore atheism is based on evidence and science. And science does not have rules of morality so neither does 'true' atheism. Atheism does not need absolute rules....the beliefs, morals and rules of atheists vary from atheist to atheist. The only similarity is the strong disbelief in any God, gods - and as is often the case anything supernatural at all.
