Most atheists will tell you that, yes. Atheism on its own, however, is just the answer to one question: do you have a belief in god.

You really need to do some research on evolution. If you are starting at the point where you think irreducible complexity (a point Michael Behe was bitchslapped in Federal Court with a stack of papers disproving every single point he made) or transitional fossils, you literally have no idea what you're even arguing against.
ETA: Talkorigins is a wonderfully cited website, if you're interested in honestly learning about what you have dismissed out of hand.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great
