Most Secular Humanists and other Atheists view family as one of the key institutions to creating a functional society and engendering peace and tranquility among people. Family bonds are based in love, trust, hope, and reciprocal good treatment. These are things worth nourishing and protecting. However, Secular Humanists and other Atheists see families as worthy of dissolution in those cases where family members cannot, after persistent attempts, have a cordial or functional relationship. They support divorce or estrangement in these unfortunate circumstances.

Atheists don't have a particularly high suicide rate, but it is higher than in religious societies; it's likely because most religions consider suicide wrong and that acts as a deterrent.

When developing data of this nature many researchers ignore the composition if the population being studies. As an example Scandinavia's have high rate of suicide and are generally prone to be atheist. This fact is seized on as proof of atheist suicidal inclinations. Other effects such as the lack of sunlight during the brutal winter, or the problems sleeping during the continuous light of summer are never mentioned in the popular press.. Reasons given for suicide seldom rank "lack of religion" as a cause.

There is no such place. That's simple.

Richard Dawkins wrote a whole book to answer that question; it is called "The God Delusion". I would suggest that you read the book if you really want to know. However, I will offer a brief summary. Viewed as a scientific hypothesis, the existence of God is not adequately proved by any reliable or objective means, and it raises many serious questions for which believers do not have good answers. Everything that religious people explain as an act of God can also be explained more simply as the working of the laws of nature.

No, she is an agnostic.

Atheism is just a lack of belief in a god or gods, rather than a movement or organisation, and therefore has no traditions. Individual atheists may observe traditions, but these are determined by other factors.

Islam sees rejecting Islam and becoming an atheist as apostasy with its associated punishments. Atheism in non-Muslims is of no concern as all non-Muslims are equally seen as nonbelievers.

Answer 2

Argue them about God. please read the book "Tradition of Mufaddal"

Since atheism is not a religion or a belief system but an absence of those things, it has no sacred text, no tenets, no dogma. In addition the term "sacred" implies "handed down by a god". In atheism there is no god, therefor no handing down, therefore no text

In a cemetery if they're dead. Hopefully not at all if they're alive.

There are secular (often municipal) cemeteries which do not differentiate on faith baed preferences. Even military cemeteries have specific "Atheist" symbols for head stones. Many probably would opt for cremation as burial is pointless, creates pollution and takes up land. These would opt for cremation followed by dispersal. many might offer their bodies for scientific study prior to cremation.

Archimedies, b.287 BCE,d212BCE, was a mathematician most famous for his invention of the screw pump. Not alot was known about his personal life.

Virtue ethics

The idea is to focus on developing the most virtuous character, rather than on what to do and what not to do. It's what you are on the inside that counts.

Neither agnostics or atheists have a symbol. Some atheists use a "Scarlet A" the US gov't uses an stylized atom on atheist/agnostic military graves. There is no approving body for symbols of this nature.

Never heard one way or other.

Mao Zedong may have been raised in the Buddhist tradition, but he rejected all forms of religion for the atheistic socialism of Marxism-Leninism, which sees organised religion as the 'opiate of the masses'. Mao Zedong's own thoughts, while rooted in dialectical materialism, also contain elements of Confucianism and Taoism.

Many people still believe in magic. In western culture, they cannot use that belief openly and directly to impact society or government. Many people find that science has removed the need to believe in magic as a way to interact with the universe.

Magic, the real magic, not the fictionalised magic of movies, books and games, not only still exists but is an integral part of many pagan spiritual paths.

Magic is in every birthday candle wish, sign against the evil eye, wish upon a star, good thought sent out, crossed fingers, candle lit for someone, good deed done in secret, and blessing of a person who has sneezed.

These things are still practiced to some degree in most of the world and therefore, admit it or not, most of the world believes in magic.

The answer is that you probably know an atheist or two and not even know it. There are more atheists in America than believers assume, most just keep their atheism quiet. But unbelief has been growing in America and more people classify themselves as "others" or "non-religious" on religion polls. A few atheists began to come out of the closet on their atheism and bravely voice their philosophy and arguments for their non-belief on the internet. It has slowly grown to an enormous number. About 93% of the elite scientists at the National Academy of Sciences are atheists or "others", and they have begun to become less accommodating to religious belief than in the past. At least one scientist of the Royal Academy follows this line also. Collectively they have come to be known as the New Atheists. Below is a link.

You should also keep in mind that atheism is not an organized entity. Atheists are individuals. There is no umbrella organization under which they can meet and share information or access articles by the leading atheist intellectuals. There is no single leadership under which they are obligated to adopt any particular dogma or worldview. They are generally more intelligent than the average religionist and are more likely to seek out information on their own to expand their understanding of the world and humanity. Those aspects of atheism make atheists more likely to utilize the internet for research, information and support.

Answer:

-When people are no longer afraid of the answer "I don't know."

-When people no longer rely on the "God did it" answer for things we don't know yet.

-When people no longer rely on unproven beliefs simply because they say they have an answer for the unanswerable questions like "what happens after you die?"

-When people no longer rely on unproven beliefs because they are comforting.

It's already happening. Atheists are increasing faster than any religious group is. Even in the United States, of younger people (18-35), the figure show upwards of 30% are non-believers. It's higher in other countries.

As science continues to discover new things, god will continue to be pushed further and further back because people can't attribute those things to him anymore.
