Are you so really desperate to shore up your faith that you need to lie about what other people do or do not believe?
I don't dispute the fact that atheists exist, lol. But atheism, as a position on religious beliefs, lost its charm a while ago. All the major proponents of atheism are epic failures. From Krauss equivocating on the word nothing, to Dawkins misunderstanding Aquinas's all Five ways.

Do you agree with me, @Astreja, that Krauss is a dumbass when it comes to understanding the word nothing ?
This accusation against Dawkins is in Wikipedia, but, it's just one medievalist who is making it. As a layperson interested in Medieval studies, I think that Professor Dawkins was addressing the modern interpretation of Aquinas' Five Ways and not trying to perform some historical analysis of high Medieval Catholic theology.
In short, the accusation against Dawkins is unfair.
