Default How many atheists are just people that mislabeled themselves?

I seem to have noticed a lot of self proclaimed atheists aren't even atheists.

Atheist = no deities/gods

non-religious spiritual = no religion but has beliefs in supernatural things or gods and are more personal in views on such things

Agnostic = knows we cant know about if there is a god or not

Ignostic = cant question if there is a god since there is no definition of what a god should be

Apethist = doesn't care if there is a god

Antitheist = hates the idea of gods or God completely or against religion

Deist = there is a God that doesn't act in peoples lives or do anything but watch.
How can i be mistaken? You dint know my friends.

Wow I never knew there were so many different definitions and labels. But I'm an Atheist and I know this because I don't believe in God, I don't believe there is a God. I don't think I'm spiritual but I love nature and animals so maybe that's spiritual? Whenever I'm feeling stressed I usually go to the woods or hike just to gather my thoughts because nature helps me with that for some reason.

Some of those categories aren't mutually exclusive. Names are just names, and usually 'atheist' gets the idea across just fine.

Those are all irreligious. Some people just call their kind of religion atheism, because that is the most known thing.

I think so too....

many people believe God is real but have concluded he is not loving or righteous and so abandon him...
