Atheism refers to human rights
No, it doesn't! Atheism does not "refer to human rights". It does not speak of animal rights. It says nothing about the fate of the universe. It does not state that evolution is happening. It is not a guaranteed path to peace and prosperity.
Atheism is an absence of belief in god(s)!
Atheism is an absence of belief in god(s)!

Why is this so difficult for theists to comprehend?? Why do you feel the need to assign all kinds of attributes to atheism that have nothing to do with atheism?
It is like saying theism refers to the taste of mustard. It makes no sense!
