The short answer is "Yes." However, I must clear up for you the definition of "soul". The Bible says that when God created Adam, "He breathed life into him, and Adam BECAME a living soul." Notice it doesn't say he RECEIVED a soul. All human beings ARE souls, we don't HAVE souls.
SOUL = body + breath of God
SOUL - breath of God = body (dead)
The soul is the combination of the body plus the breath of God. The breath of God is also called the spirit, but it is not a conscious entity any more than your or my breath is conscious. The spirit (breath) returns to God, and the soul ceases to exist.
It's like a light bulb represents the body, the electricity represents the breath, and the light produced is the soul. When the electricity is shut off, where does the light go? Nowhere. It ceases to exist.
So yes, atheists, since they are human, ARE a soul.

We all have souls and when people remember a long lost loved one it's like we're remembering the extent to which we had experience with that persons soul.. How people impressed upon another during their lives, good or bad is how they're remembered as souls with each individual, but God knows a persons true reflection no matter what they think they see when looking in the mirror.

James Brown has soul. But seriously yes they do and if when they die they meet god he will forgive them for being wrong about him and let them off. After all we aren't born Atheists we choose to be later on in life - that doesnt make our soul vanish. And anyway the gods are best served by those who need their help the least.

I've never even heard a definition of what a soul is, so I don't know. It's not measurable, nor does it have a specific position in the body. If you define it as "life", then every living thing has a soul. If you define it as "sentience", then that opens up a whole different can of problems.

All men have body, soul and spirit.
Genesis 2:7 And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.

Yes they have souls, God made everyone with souls if the believe in him or not, denying that God made you, and that you have a soul does not change that fact. Does not believing in gravity change that it exist and has an effect over your body. If you say no, go jump off a cliff and you will find out that gravity and your soul really exist.
P.S. I hope you all don't go jump off a cliff it was just an example.

Everyone has a soul. Look in the mirror and you will be looking at your soul. Your soul is your flesh and bone. The bible tells us this thru and thru. Everyone has the spirit of Life in them which is the breath that they breath.

Yes. Some even have left great prints of their achievements on the hall of fames and the scientific world where humans enjoy the comfort of livings. They may not believe in God but they believe in human endeavours to keep the world moving which sometimes the theist just wait for wind of destiny to bring them to places of hope and illusion.

the soul is:the mind,will and emotions, not to be confused with
the spirit(heart).
by definition, regardless of your position on the existance of GOD,
then yes, atheists do have souls.
