Do you know that if you make an endeavor to find out when and by whom atheism was authored you will not be able to find such information from any source ?
Not even the most "educated" atheists, particularly those associated with the most elite universities throughout the world can truthfully inform you when and by whom atheism originated.
They can enlighten you as to who were its main perpetrators in different cultures, but they cannot identify its founder and when it actually originated.
The absence of a known author and time of origin of such a highly embraced philosophy is a strange phenomenon...
But this phenomenon is highly indicative. It suggests that atheism is not of earthly origin that it had its birth in another sphere before this state of time.
Atheism is not a man made doctrine but a doctrine of the demons.
Its originator is none other than the old serpent himself, namely, Satan.
It had its origin from the very one it deceptively denies exists.
It is a doctrine which denies the authorship and existence of its own author !
This accounts for the absence of information in any literature embraced by atheists that identify both a human author and earthly time of origin for atheism.
The process by which atheism originated is very involved, so a simple starter presentation of the basic principles that gave it birth must suffice...
A conclusion that the Almighty Righteous God is unjust or wrong for any of His actions cannot be arrived at except through the total depravity of those who draw such a conclusion.
So in order to understand how atheism had it origin, It is crucial to realize that the total depravity of the nature of Satan is the key principle that underlies the origin of atheism.
Depravity must direct the hearts of its graceless subjects against God even though they know better.
So it would seem Atheism does have its roots in Satanism...

I don't think this is good, if somebody at work for example says I am atheist, just to let people know, that's cool.
But if that same person is always trying to advocate their beliefs, in the lunchroom, what's going to be the result?
Especially if everybody believes in some type of creator, although not even a religion.
I never bring up my personal theist beliefs at work ever, unless somebody asks me directly, and even then it is the briefest of answers.
All loudmouths will be discriminated against, but it's not because they are atheists, but because they have no common sense, as to when they can advocate their beliefs.
Maybe that's why the internet is such a magnet for atheists. A perfect spot for you guys to unite, defend, attack, and advocate with your dogmatic mindset.

Why, yes, theism predates scientific understanding. Of course it would. If we understood the natural world we'd have no reason to have a lot of those deities in the first place.

That is a good question, because so many people have worshiped pagan false Gods even if they didn't believe in the one creator of the universe. I would say evolution is the crutch that allows an atheist to travel his path mentally and emotionally. No evolution=no atheism. So Darwin would be the closest, as he got the ball rolling with his new theory. And it has been expanded upon ever since by like minded people.

yes but these are things one can see... even after you see them there is still more isn't there ?
Science will not answer the question you are trying to understand but it is a tool... once you get to a certain point then there is revelation.
unless one can actually see nothingness !
