I am going to say this again.
Atheists do not believe in any god.
Communism is an ideology that seeks to establish a classless, stateless social organization based on common ownership of the means of production.
NOTHING ABOUT THESE TWO DIFFERENT THINGS MAKE THEM THE SAME.

Communists are people who have a certain political view where there should be no state and everything should be communitarian (pretty much like the early Christians described in acts 2). Unlike the early Christians those comunists do not have a define theological view, although most of the seem to agree with Marx (either Karl or Groucho i can't remember wich), who said that Religion is the opium of the masses. Also many comunists agree with other revolutionary ideas that often go against organized religion.
Atheist is a person who believes that God dosent exists independently of their political view.
Well, i hope you got it dude

Do you understand the difference? Communism is a political system. Some atheists are communists, some atheists are republicans, some atheists are socialists, some atheists are democrats, some atheists are libertarians. Its two different things! Its like saying all food is pudding. Yes, some food is pudding, but most is not. For goodness sakes THINK!

Communists?? That is so 1950s. The ones I know aren't. In fact I think a couple of them served in the military.

Becuase one thing "atheism" has NOTHING to do with the other "communism."
One is a faith (or rather lack thereof) and the other is a socioeconomic structure. I would suggest you look up the denitions of both words at http://www.dictionary.com as you are comparing apples to oranges.

(BTW I'm VERY much a theist, as in I believe in deity... although I am not Christian)

The ones claiming to be atheist (answers of your question) that I read, don't seem to understand atheism is a key idea of those who support and push communism.
Communism pushes atheism.

Two different things. I personally don't like either philosophy. I also do not like chocolate ice cream and yet I can still seperate these three concepts.

Why as someone with less than common sense would you attempt to ask questions in the R&S section.

Keep asking, you'll soon be done to level 4. If you knew anything at all you would know you question is false.
