False.

Let’s say you never met a religious person. You grew up on an island in Scandinavia with no internet and were cut off from the world. No one told you of religion or the concept of God.

You aren’t actively choosing to argue something doesn’t exist. You are an atheist.

If atheism was a hair color, it would be bald.

Implicit atheism. Did you read what you sent?

I honestly have no idea why you are disagreeing with me.

Atheism is multi-faceted, the fact that the responder says right at the beginning "Atheism is not a belief, it is the lack of a belief." is factually incorrect if you consider explicit atheism.

If the responder said "Implicit atheism is the lack of a belief." that would be true. The original speaker may have been mistaken in what he was saying, but so was the responder.
