Atheism: Believing God Does Not Exist
Atheists believe God does not exist. Atheists reject theism, the view that God—an all-powerful, knowing, and good being—exists. Atheists are not agnostics, who suspend judgment on the matter and so neither believe nor disbelieve there’s a God. This essay introduces some of the core philosophical issues about atheism: what it is, how and why people accept atheism, and the relationships between atheism and meaning in life and ethics.
