Well, first, there is only one God - the Creator of the Universe.
Second, here some websites to check out to view the beliefs of an atheist:

It's important to have rational thought, of course, but an experience with the Holy Spirit is NOT rational, it's spiritual. Once you have a personal experience with our Creator, with Jesus Christ, your faith is born in your heart, not your brain.
God bless you on your spiritual journey!

You gotta be kidding, right? But it sounds like you're serious so I'm sad to say the answer is yes. Some people have no belief in the Lord God Almighty. I'm sure there are many reasons that these people feel that way. I believe that everyone is entitled to believe whatever they choose to, and I am not the one to try to change their view. For instance, if I was at a party and saw that one of the guests was not consuming alcohol like everyone else, I may ask them if they would like for me to get them a drink. If they say no and that they not drink alcohol, I would apologize and ask if I could get something else for them instead of insistently prodding them to have one. If someone I just met tells me in casual conversation that they were Atheist, I might ask them why they are, but I wouldn't start trying to "cram religion down their throat" as so many have posted on this board. So, yes, there are people that have no belief in God/god/gods, but since we live in America, a free country, I respect their outlook as long as they do the same for me. Remember the Golden Rule...Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.

Hmm....let me answer this with a question as an atheist, which I am.
Are there really Christians? Those are people who believe that there is a god.?
Note that this is a belief.

Blimey, Elmo's a stoner for sure. I was brought up as a Catholic and have had a thorough look at other faiths too. I'm still unconvinced. Don't believe in ghosts, Holy or otherwise. I am the evidence you require. I am an atheist, I think therefore I am, and am still going strong. Bless you!!!!

Just because it is a belief it doesn't mean they don't exist. If you thought the sky is purple it is a belief. Anything that comes with an opinion is belief whether or not it is in the realm of theology.

Yes, atheism is a belief, just like Christianity is a belief, just like all the other religions are a belief. Prove there's a god and atheism will go away.

Yes I disbelieve the existence of gods.
Look in a dictionary you will see that the term atheist does not preclude a belief in anything but the existence of supernatural beings / gods.

There really and truly are atheists who believe there is no God/god/gods. That's because atheists are rationally thinking people who have not lost contact with reality.

They don't believe there is a god. That is not a belief, it is a disbelief. Not believing in something is not the same as believing in something. Its all a matter of semantics.
