Actually the best answer is I don't know. I became aware that religion , atheism , politic are nothing more than fixed thinking. A religious person like it or not has to accept all thing in the faith and will defend it right or wrong because their minds are so fixed that its real they can't free themselves. Atheism is finite you have to accept the theology and will defend it right or wrong - too fixed for me just like religion. All politics is fixed thinking you join the party and you have to accept all things and will defend it right or wrong no different than religion. People are easily led.
People need to free their minds from this kind of thinking and stop following the herd.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

It's like a music box- it only has one tune.
If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.

The only characteristic all atheists share is a lack of belief in deities. The vast majority (myself included) would happily accept god belief if there was any compelling evidence of a god...any god. There hasn't been any compelling evidence in thousands of years of human history. Atheism is a provisional position, just like a scientific theory.
Tell me of this "theology" you speak of...
Disappointing theists since 1968!

Indeed, This I assume robot from the star wars universe, doesn't know what atheism actually is.
I expect some flavour of theist "explained" it to him and got it badly wrong.
You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.
