[split]Atheism is based of ignorance.

[Esquilax]

You're an atheist born of ignorance rather than conviction. Whether that's better or worse I'm not sure.

No atheist is an atheist born of conviction, even those who were once christians. There's no conviction because there's nothing to be convinced of: skepticism should be the default for everyone, and the only reason one should hold it regarding christianity or any other religion is the spectacular way in which those religions fail at shouldering their burden of proof. You may find atheists that feel strongly about their atheism, but the only necessity is a skeptical mindset that won't give god claims a free pass, not some conscious, constant decision to keep god claims out.
