Atheists can be optimists. They can have hope for better things in this life. They also have faith in friends and loved ones. But if the question is about the false hope for another life after death, then of course atheists do not hold out this hope. And faith in a non-existent deity is no help to an atheist.

It has been said that science is concerned with truth, politics with justice, and religion with hope. Atheists believe that they are realists and that death is final, with no hope of continuation of a spiritual life afterwards. Nevertheless, of the millions of atheists in the world, there would no doubt be some who, when faced with their final hours, choose to hope for an afterlife. Religion does offer comfort in times of need, and there is no reason to deny an atheist this comfort just because there is no objective evidence that this hope will be fulfilled.
