Members of almost any group generally blend in with the "public" behavior of their culture. In the case of atheists we do not seek out Christians to disparage, kittens to bite the heads off, churches to burn, or carry a copy of Marcus Aurelius' work (Meditations) to give us talking points when we start spontaneous street corner meetings. The classic complaint is that atheists fume and sputter at a Xmas carol in a store or a clerk's failure to use the P.C. "Happy Holidays!". This is not the usual case any more than expecting Christians to become apoplectic at the sight of a burkha.
Considering that 10% to 30% of the populations of most European and North American cities are atheists, agnostics or other non-believers it is likely that you witness their public behavior daily - without it ever drawing any attention.
They have no belief (or a disbelief) in God or any gods, so to make that clear to others, they simply state that like others would with their beliefs. However, beliefs in any thing else other than to do with religion normally varies from each individual.

OpinionChristians are in the business of converting the world to their way of thinking. They are under the mistaken notion that all good moral behavior comes from religious laws and beliefs and that theirs are the best. Atheists are anathema in this process since they choose to not adhere to any religious beliefs. It should be noted that not all Christians harass atheists but many sects preach against atheism from their pulpits and often paint a picture of atheists that doesn't mirror reality.
Atheism is an absence of belief in a deity, so there isn't a doctrine of beliefs as you find in religions and there isn't a single thought or belief about death which is shared by atheists. Some Buddhists are atheists - but believe in reincarnation, other atheists believe that when we die, we cease to be.
All scientists aren't atheists, so the question of "why" isn't valid. Many have beliefs, in different manners, of a Creator or something bigger and more Divine or significant than the universe and humankind.
Atheists' political beliefs cover an extremely wide spectrum. Many atheists are conservative and don't think that womens' rights are an important issue, or who are misogynists, especially the most common form of atheist seen on the internet.
