   If you look up "atheism" in the dictionary, you will probably   
   find it defined as the belief that there is no God. Certainly   
   many people understand atheism in this way. Yet many atheists   
   do not, and this is not what the term means if one considers it   
   from the point of view of its Greek roots. In Greek "a" means   
   "without" or "not" and "theos" means "god." From this standpoint   
   an atheist would simply be someone without a belief in God, not   
   necessarily someone who believes that God does not exist. According   
   to its Greek roots, then, atheism is a negative view, characterized   
   by the absence of belief in God.
