Well atheism is pretty easy to understand. Atheism is lack of belief in god or gods. It's got nothing to do with anything else. Just lack of belief in god. That's it.
Also reason has nothing to do with it. You either believe in god or you don't. Simple.
I don't believe that a god exists, and so this makes me an atheist.
Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence - Carl Sagan
Mankind's intelligence walks hand in hand with it's stupidity.
Being an atheist says nothing about your overall intelligence, it just means you don't believe in god. Atheists can be as bright as any scientist and as stupid as any creationist.
You never really know just how stupid someone is, until you've argued with them.
