1. Atheists don't believe in anything

This statement is partly true – 'atheism' does not entail that one believes anything! If someone says they are an atheist, they have only told you what they do not believe [ie gods exist]. Of course, atheists as people happen to believe many things, but none of them is necessitated by their atheism.


zepner508 claims "atheists don't believe in anything supernatural"

Well, that is mostly true for most atheists, but you can not say "being an atheist requires you to reject the supernatural" since all that's required to be an atheist is that you have no belief in gods! You can be an atheist and believe in ghosts.

You are wrong.
