An atheist is someone wo has studied all relegions and all asspects of each relligion and then after all that study comes to the conclusion that there is no God. Is there really truly anyone on this site who can say that they are a true athiest or do they just deny God based on the little bits of "facts" they know?

You have no clue what an Atheist is.
We don't believe in God.. That is all.. We do not need to have knowledge of everything to be an Atheist.

You just made up that definition. There is no education or study requirement, just as there are none for the major religions.
To be a Christian, do you have to have "studied all relegions and all asspects of each relligion and then after all that study comes to the conclusion that" your version of Christianity is the one true religion?
I am an atheist, and I qualify that by saying there has been no description of a god by any of the major religions that I find remotely believable.

What dictionary did you get that from?
Is a True Christian one who "has studied all relegions and all asspects of each relligion and then after all that study comes to the conclusion that there is" only the Christian god?

I have studied all the major religions in some depths as well as several of the smaller and lesser known ones. I know various creation stories, various pantheons (though the greek gods are probably my favorite), various afterlife stories (the Flying Spaghetti Monster heaven is the best, though Valhalla and Nirvanna aren't far behind), but there's no possible way to know or study them all - that's just ridiculous.
However one doesn't need to know about many religions or even any religion to not believe. Atheism is simply a lack of belief in god, anybody not even introduced to any religion (such as growing up in the wild or on an island) will be inherently atheist, as are all babies. Many atheists do come to lose belief by studying religion, but not all must and it is by no means a reasonable requirement.

nicely i'm not Atheist. yet there's a scientifically proff at the back of the worlds creation. yet great religious eu religions peoples do not settle for that. AND PLUS: Atheism isn't the belief of evolution. Atheism is somebody who does not have a non secular concept and is against and opposing to everyone who has religious ideals. Agnostic is somebody who does not have confidence nor disbelieve in a non secular stress. They care to not comprise that for the period of their lives. they don't seem to be insulting as that is not a area of their lives. Darwinists or Evolusionist are people who have confidence in the fact of evolution. there is proff all around us that evolution exists fool. no count how religious or culturally non secular i'm, it is shown that evolution has formed the species on our planet. yet Evolution has not something to do with how the Earth became created. that is termed the enormous Bang. Get a grip on technology. faith won't be able to coach something. technology can practice each and every thing.

Well, I have read the koran, three versions of the bible, the kaballa, several buddest texts, the satanic bible by anton levey, about 6 volumes of the talmud(boring as ****), some ba'hai stuff, the book of mormon and many more obscure texts. I have come to this conclusion, people need some sort of direction in their lives, and it is easy to controll the masses with consequenses to dissobeying the RULES. so bring on the religious lies! Stallin, Marx, and yes even Mao did the same thing, using the anti god angle, and hundreds of millions bought it. so yes I can honestly say, I am an athiest, and proud of it!

Thank you for your crude and deeply ill-informed definition of atheists.
A Christian, as far as I'm concerned, is someone who has studied all religions and all aspects of each religion, and has then gone on to consider in depth the tenets of atheistic humanism, and after all that study comes to the conclusion that there is a God, Christ was born of a virgin, walked on liquid, died, came back to life, and floated bodily up into the sky forever.
So, are there any true Christians in the world?

A great point. Atheists rarely take the trouble to find out what Christianity is about. How can anyone be so arrogant as to claim perfect knowledge? Only God has that.

I think you are mistaken in your definition of atheist. An atheist is one who has no beliefs in god/s. It doesn't mean that I have to study every religious belief in the world, because a new religion is born every few minutes.
An atheist does not have to deny god. All an atheist needs to do to be an atheist is to not have any beliefs in god/s.
I am an atheist because I have not seen any evidence to support the existence of any god.

Studied about ten of them. Found them all ridiculous. So, athieism seemed to be the route for me. The studies can prove difficult-do you study organized religion or just the religion itself? The reading was interesting to a point;but, after much concerted effort; I made the correct decision.

No. But your definition is incomplete. An atheist has to study everything about every religion, as well as invent and study all possible religions and every variation of every religion, travel the whole physical universe, throughout time, and they still wouldn't be able to be a TRUE atheist, since they could still be just a brain in a jar. yay for you.
