Atheism- The lack of belief in god or gods
Atheist- A person that lacks belief in god or gods

If you are a atheist who disagrees with this, then please elaborate.

People who lack belief in gods.
People who deny any possibility that there could be any gods.

I'd call them both atheists.
You are currently experiencing a lucky and very brief window of awareness, sandwiched in between two periods of timeless and utter nothingness. So why not make the most of it, and stop wasting your life away trying to convince other people that there is something else? The reality is obvious.
