Atheism and faith

Atheism is the absence of belief in any gods or deities, often based on a lack of evidence or persuasive reasons to believe in supernatural beings. Faith typically involves a strong trust or conviction in beliefs, often without empirical proof, and is common in religious contexts. Atheists usually rely on reason, scientific understanding, and evidence to form their worldview, while faith emphasizes trust and conviction that may transcend empirical verification. Both are ways people approach questions about existence and meaning, differing mainly in reliance on evidence versus trust.
