undecided : undecided [Atheism is, in a broad sense, the rejection of belief in the existence of deities. In a narrower sense, atheism is specifically the position that there are no deities.
Most inclusively, atheism is the absence of belief that any deities exist.
Atheism is contrasted with theism, which, in its most general form, is the belief that at least one deity exists.


#W0uld Any0ne like to vote an atheist as a president

God is a word created by humans to fill in the gabs in their quest and comfort, so in essence, there is God as a human creation, but no God as creator of humans.

Lol i doubt that, not in this religiously saturated society and religion somehow has a thing with intolerance.

It would be a very bad and poor political tactics and practise to admit to be an atheist in this society.

First the christians will brand you the nick name ANTI-CHRIST and none of them will vote for you.

Muslims might even call for your head. . . . For now it will be a wrong move for any politician to admit lack of belief in Gods

Many presidents are atheists, especially those who attended Ivy League schools. They teach nothing but reason over there.

In the developed world(Presidents like Obama and a lot of other world leaders are closet atheist), but African leaders are mostly religious fanatics and fundamentalist. It will be foolish to come out as an atheist an seek any selective office.
