Ateisme

Ateisme (frå gresk a-, 'ingen' og theos, 'gud') er manglande tru på gud(ar).

Sjølv om mange ateistar heldt mot sekulære filosofiar som humanisme eller naturalisme, er ikkje ateismen eit livssyn som alle ateistar følgjer.[1][2][3] Nokre religionar som jainismen og buddhismen krev heller inga tru på ein personleg gud.

Omgrepet ateist vart opphavleg nytta nedsettande om ein person eller ei tru som er i konflikt med etablert religion.[4][5] Med utbreiinga av fritenking, vitskapleg skeptikk og religionskritikk har omgrepet fått ei meir spesifikk tyding og blir i høgare grad nytta sjølvbeskrivande av ateistar.

ISBN 0-89005-201-8. «Atheism and atheist are words formed from Greek roots and with Greek derivative endings. Nevertheless they are not Greek; their formation is not consonant with Greek usage. In Greek they said atheos and atheotēs; to these the English words ungodly and ungodliness correspond rather closely. In exactly the same way as ungodly, atheos was used as an expression of severe censure and moral condemnation; this use is an old one, and the oldest that can be traced. Not till later do we find it employed to denote a certain philosophical creed.»
