Theism is a belief in some sort of god, whether it's the current one in fashion or of some other god. Atheism is not believing in any type of god period. As far as to which is better, that is for one to decide personally. Will you feel emotionally comforted in believing in a god or are you strong enough to believe in yourself.

∙ 9y agoYou are asking for a value judgment. That decision must be made by the individual. In matters of belief we should not judge the beliefs of others, the non-belief of others nor do we have the right to impose our personal beliefs on others. That there was a supreme creator of all that we know, who controls human destiny, is a speculation at best. Some choose to believe and some do not. Atheism is better for some people and theism is better for some people. It is a matter of choice.

Is atheism connected to ethnic cleansing?
Atheism is the lack of belief in deities and is not connected to ethnic cleansing at all. Ethnic cleansing could be believed to be something a deity calls for so, in that manner, theism (belief in deities) is more connected to ethnic cleansing than atheism. It's possible for atheists to engage in ethnic cleansing but they do it for reasons other than atheism.
