Vanity is the cornerstone of atheism.

Yes. I'm an atheist and at the same time I am not arrogant or prideful. It would be completely naive to assume that people with no belief in god don't have the ability to be humble - humble has nothing to do with religious preference.

Yes, just like there's such thing as an arrogant religious person.

Sure. We just aren't humble to your god. Personally, I've met a great many theists (especially Christians) who profess their humility to god, but treat people like crap.
The problem is, you define humble (or humility) as accepting a higher power. We don't - humility as a human being is more important.

The fact that we've proved you wrong and that you haven't managed to retort in a sensible way, doesn't mean that we like to boast of being geniuses.
We simply cannot believe in an imaginary being living so cozy among the clouds.
Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.

Don't confuse intelligence and understanding as arrogance. Just because atheists use bigger words and understand more complex concepts doesn't mean we aren't humble.

Some atheists have a lot to be humble about.

We're all humble. We recognise our true place in the universe, unlike theists who think they're the special creation of a deity and that the universe exists solely for their benefit.
