Nothing like that - not believing in something is also beliving in that there is nothing !
in the end it is still a belief - a faith !

An Atheist's Error
"For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;" -Romans 1:18
The Atheist makes the grave and deadly error of deliberately rejecting the truth! But is Atheism really an error? Atheism is no mistake friend, it is a willing rejection of God Almighty. No child is an Atheist. A person does not become an Atheist until they've been brainwashed by some heathen teacher in a public school or godless university (or sadly by Atheist parents). Romans 1:18 teaches that mankind, even in his unrighteousness, HOLDS THE TRUTH. We read in the Word of God...
"For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men," -Titus 2:11
it is clear from the Bible that God's saving grace is extended to all humanity. Man HOLDS the truth at his fingertips. Proverb 1:20 says that wisdom crieth out in the streets for people to hear, but few listen. God's hand of invitation for salvation is extended to all people of all races of all nations. The gospel of Jesus Christ is good news for EVERYONE. If you want to be saved, it is still not too late. If your heart hasn't become hardened by unbelief to the point where you refuse to call upon the Lord for forgiveness, then you may be saved. Ironically, it is the same sun which melts the wax that also hardens the clay. The same Bible which melt one person's heart, causes another's to become hardened in unbelief. The only thing which can keep you from becoming a born-again believer is you. God wants to save everyone (2nd Peter 3:9).
The Atheist makes the foolish mistake of rejecting God. According to the Word of God, there is NO such thing as an Atheist...
"Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools," -Romans 1:21-22

Calling atheism a faith is like calling bald a hair color.
There are no tenets, no universal characteristics, no code of behvaior, no dogma, and no services for atheism. There is no religious veneration of a person, object, or place. Atheists come from a wide variety of backgrounds and have extremely diverse opinions ranging thre gamult from liberal anarchist to militant conservatives.

I don't believe in God, but I have faith... And and Atheist is someone who denies a supreme being or God... Without religion, everybody would be an Atheist...

It does not mean that. We atheists just do not believe in a supreme beings which means that we have faith that there are no gods or supreme beings.

Atheism, doesn't mean lack of faith.
This what is means (Reference: www.dictionary.com)
the‧ism
1. the belief in one God as the creator and ruler of the universe, without rejection of revelation (distinguished from deism).
2. belief in the existence of a god or gods (opposed to atheism).
a‧the‧ist
a person who denies or disbelieves the existence of a supreme being or beings.
This means something different now.

I'm addicted to nothing.
And quite right, one without faith is an atheist.
