Answer 2

Athiest [wikipedia] --

Atheism, as a philosophical view, is the position that either affirms the nonexistence of gods[1] or rejects theism.[2] When defined more broadly, atheism is the absence of belief in deities,[3] alternatively called nontheism.[4] Although atheism is often equated with irreligion, some religious philosophies, such as secular theology and some varieties of Theravada Buddhism, also lack belief in a personal god.

Many self-described atheists are skeptical of all supernatural beings and cite a lack of empirical evidence for the existence of deities. Others argue for atheism on philosophical, social or historical grounds. Although many self-described atheists tend toward secular philosophies such as humanism[5] and naturalism,[6] there is no one ideology or set of behaviors to which all atheists adhere.[7]

The term atheism originated as a pejorative epithet applied to any person or belief in conflict with established religion.[8] With the spread of freethought, scientific skepticism, and criticism of religion, the term began to gather a more specific meaning and was sometimes used as a self-description by atheists.

Answer 3

The prefix "a" means without or outside of.
The second part of the word "theist" is taken from the root
"theos" and that means "god" in Greek.

Thus, in the literal sense the word atheist means
"without god" or "outside of [the realm of] god."

Some folks these days prefer the term "non-theist" to describe themselves with the literal Latin meaning of not or no and again the Greek "theos" god.
Thus [although the two words may describe the same person]
a non-theist is one who has "no god."

I hope that helps.
