Absolutely. Everyone has a soul/spirit. Not everyone takes care of them, but they are still there.
Opinion
The soul would be regarded by many as something which is evidence of us as being somewhat 'higher' beings than the animals. The fact that we can choose to be either Christians or Atheists or anywhere in-between cannot be explained by mere Biology or brain chemistry. Humans have a soul. Some choose to believe in it, while others don't. The evidence is there in many of the 'discussions' we have. Animals do not 'fight' over different opinions about how the world was made, or religious practices though they will over food, territory, or a mate.
The fact of Atheists, or even Christians for that matter, believing that all people have souls or don't, is irrelevant to the issue. What is to the point is whether or not Atheists do or do not have souls. Not believing in something will not make it go away.
Since the soul is the expression of the person it is not at all surprising that there are many different understandings or expressions of the soul and what it is. This is because people are incredibly complex beings and we have different ways of viewing the same reality and different ways of describing it. This makes this whole area rather interesting since it relates to human personality and what it means to be human as compared to non-human.
Opinion
Ask 100 people from different religious and cultural background what a soul is and you'll get 100 different answer. Until such time that soul, ghosts, spirits or whatever it is called can be proven scientifically exists or do not exist, then your question will have to wait for answer. all we have now are theories and hypotheses regarding what a soul is.
Opinion
No. Souls are merely what The Bible says to justify the killing of animals and to show how humans are far superior to animals. This, according to "God" was the difference between man and animal. Yet aren't people animals too? Don't we eat, move, yearn to survive? Yes. So if Christians had souls, so would Atheists, and if any human had a soul, so would all the animals. If God didn't exist and our existence was merely to reproduce and survive, no one would have a soul. If you have a soul, so does everyone else.
Opinion
People call me an atheist which is pretty accurate.I do believe i have a soul, its nothing to do with religion at all its the connection between heart, emotion and mind. If you go through a rough time emotionally or mentally, something anyway, is exposed and hurt. Its strange.
Opinion
It's not really a question of do Atheist have souls but more of a personal question of wether you believe in souls or not or what your definition of a soul is because there are some that believe animals have souls as well. If you believe people have souls in a Christian sense than yes Atheists do have a soul because after all Christians always tell everyone who doesn't believe in their specific religion that person's soul will burn in hell. If not then no one has a soul.
Opinion
If your world view is purely scientific, then a soul is probably just as fictional to you as an aura or a sixth sense. If your world view is religious, then we probably all have souls. I personaly believe both are partially wrong; we do not have souls.
Opinion
While it is a wide spread belief among believers that everyone has a soul, it is disproved by the fact that the mind (equated with the soul) is affected by drugs and brain injuries. If the mind was somehow separate from the material brain, as dualists believe, then the mind should not be affected by such things. So, no, there is no soul that is separate from the body. When the brain dies, what made you 'you' in life, is gone forever.

According to Christianity do all living things gave souls or do only people have souls?
However, depending on the denomination you could believe that all conscience things have souls. I believe that dogs and cats have souls. That's just my opinion; it is said that only humazns do and we can only go to his kingdom
Why do all humans have souls in our bodies?
Depending upon who you ask, you will get a variety of different answers. According to most atheists, humans don't have souls - their consciousness arises as a metafunction of the neuronal processes of the brain, particularly the cerebral cortex. According to most religions, humans were granted souls by a divine Creator. Each religion has its own creation story in which the granting of souls is explained; most of these contradict the creation stories of most other religions.

Why are atheists so angry?
They're not, that's just an opinion by many people who believe in God and Jesus.Answer:Assuming that all of any group acts one way or has one opinion is never supportable. In the case of atheists the number of happy, sad, angry or morose atheists is probably very similar to that of any group in the population or the population as a whole.Often news services and special interest groups focus on people with strong positions (it makes a better story) and the public becomes convinced that all of the group feels that way.

What do you think of atheists?
This isn't really an opinion service! Atheists are people who don't believe in a god. Plenty of people don't believe, there is no evidence that atheists are better or worse than theists - it's easy to think of evil things done by atheists (Stalin) or theists (911 bombers) just as it's easy to think of good things done by atheists (Churchill, Bob Geldof, Betrand Russell) and theists (Ghandi).Views on atheists differ widely.Among the religious, atheists are many times used a symbol of moral decay of society. To the religious, godlessness is something to be feared. Many people like to equate atheism with the works of brutal dictators and extremist leaders, like Stalin, Mao, Hitler, etc. This being said, there are plenty of religious people who understand that atheists are not evil simply because of their lack of faith.To atheists themselves, the idea that there is no such thing as God is simply a statement of rationality. It often does take courage to admit such a view, as it is not widely held in the United States. Generally, atheists are highly committed to social justice and the welfare of humanity as a whole.
