12. You're wrong about the definition.

At least a few dictionaries are in agreement with Beregond2:

Merriam Webster:
a disbelief in the existence of deity b: the doctrine that there is no deity
http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/atheism

Dictionary.com:
the doctrine or belief that there is no God.
http://dictionary.reference.com/search?r=2&q=atheism

American Heritage Dictionary:
The doctrine that there is no God or gods.
http://dictionary.reference.com/search?r=2&q=atheism

Worldnet (Princeton University):
the doctrine or belief that there is no God
http://dictionary.reference.com/search?r=2&q=atheism

Where did you get the definition that you prefer to use?
