Yah, you can believe in anything except divine beings and still be an atheist, and the beliefs don't even have to be rational. There are atheists who believe in ancient astronauts, astrology, cryptids, ESP, homoeopathy, and trickle-down economics. Atheism is the state of not having a belief that any divine deities are real, full stop.
The atheists in this forum tend to cluster around humanism and rational skepticism, so you'll see us having a lot in common based on those positions, rather than atheism itself. Atheists who come here and assert that hoodoo works without divine intervention through the will of the practitioner are going to be asked for evidence, just as we would from a theist who claims Krishna is real.
Wait. . . you think Krishna isn't real?!?!?
