"Atheist" is the default position. It is the label used to describe someone who doesn't bother with a god belief as opposed to someone who chose to hold onto a faith. It is the same way (most) people don't bother with a Santa Clause belief. It is a difference between having faith and not having a faith is obvious to most non-believers but, for some reason, seems beyond the grasp of most believers. Somehow believers insist that atheists hold onto a faith that there is no god. Though I've never heard one claim that they hold onto a faith that there is no Odin.
