This is a very common question asked of atheists. More often then not they skirt the issue by responding that not all atheists share the same values. I'm not going to do that because I believe that many Christians have at least a set of common principals that they believe in and follow. I would say most atheists adhere to issues of personal freedom, human rights, reproductive rights and principals of democracy. As atheists we also do not believe in magic, superstition or other non-empirical systems. We rely heavily on science for our answers and see the scientific method as the path of the future. Since we have no after life we believe we must do now whatever we can to improve our lives here and now.
That is not a question. Atheists view friends as friends.
Suffering and dying exist. Existentialism has no part in atheism.
What you have described is simply a family that does not believe in gods.
We believe atheist families exist all over the world. Existentialism has no part.
Atheism is NOT A RELIGION. It has no rules. Those are given by morality. Every atheist has different opinions.
There are no categorically atheistic views on any topic except a general lack of belief in gods. Apart from that atheists are simply people. They do not all think alike and with one mind such as theists. You have confused atheists with theists who generally hold religious beliefs as a group.

Being an atheist does not mean that you don't have the same feelings of love, hate or indifference that are experienced by those that are not. these emotions are built into every human being and they are what help the human race survive against even their own evil intentions.
Christian answerChristianity is monotheistic. It does not believe in three gods, but in one God, expressed in three persons. The Trinity is a difficult concept, but no Christian would ever say that Christianity is polytheistic.
They were for the most part atheistic. Communist governments suppressed all religions: Christianity, Jewish, Islam, Buddhism, Baha'i, etc.
The atheist existential view of ethics is that ethics do not emerge from supernatural sources but from pragmatic sources; a good system of ethics is one that contributes to the healthy functioning of the society which adopts it. In other words, we are ethical because it is useful to be ethical, not because God commands us to do so.
Atheists have no "standard" position on anything except that there is no-good. All other questions on social order, work, and the existence of aliens is up to the individual. Posing a question on their views is like asking what bald men think of vanilla ice-cream
