Nope. Atheism is ONLY one who lacks belief in god. One without belief in god. That is it. Atheism has got nothing to do with evolution or anything else.
Theos or θεϊστής is one with god. One who believes in a god or gods.
Atheos or αθεϊστής is one without god. One who lacks belief in god or gods.
Funny really. So simple and easy to understand and yet....so many misconceptions. Why?
You put it out of context to misrepresent me. If you would have read the very next sentence it would say any athiest has to accept evolution to explain any type of origins (paraphrased). This is how it ties in.
Oh! thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand
Between their loved home and the war's desolation!
Blest with victory and peace, may the heav'n rescued land
Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation.
Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just,
And this be our motto: "In God is our trust."
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!
