Not entirely actually. In fact an atheist can believe in spirits, ghosts and even some kind of afterlife. Atheism in it's strictest sense is the lack of belief in god(s) existance. Though atheists tend to reject most if not all supernatural claims.
Atheism is pretty much one thing and one thing only. Lack of belief in god. Everything else is up for debate. It's just atheists do tend to lean away from most if not all supernatural claims. Just like atheism doesn't support or reject science but it's just atheists tend to lean towards science.
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.
