An Atheist is a person who believes that there is no God. A person who does not believe in God is not necessarily an Atheist, but may only be an Agnostic.
An Agnostic does not know if there is a God nor does he care. He does not try to convince others that there is or is not a God.
An Atheist actively denies the existence of God and argues the point to try to convince others as well.

well, let's see.
"A": without/no
"theism" God/belief in God
Without/no God. No belief in God. And that is not dictionary or Wikipedia. That is from me.

Religion is simply a repeated action. The atheist's religion may be science. Atheism is the absence of belief in one or many gods.
