Well okay. All atheists agree that the following is true of themselves:

"I do not believe in the existence of gods."

Checkmate atheists? Wink

That's one. Maybe. If you count not believing something as a belief. What's the other? You can't have a system with only one component, and I only asked for two beliefs that all atheists hold.
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.
