But thats just wrong. Atheism is acknowledging that there is no God, thats what atheism is.
You could say that an atheist still has a belief system which is not unlike religion, in that an atheist having found that there is no God, needs to believe in something else to explain the world around them.
But if you don't believe that there is a God, then you are by definition, an atheist.
