c. I eat so much cow that I dump meat loafs.

Actually every answerer above me has it wrong. Atheism is simply the lack of belief in god. The word Atheist has nothing to do with religion. Some Athiests are in fact religious, such as Buddhists, Taoists some Pagans.

An atheist is a person that believes there is no God. The definition goes no farther.

Still laboring under the impression atheism is a religion I see.
Atheism is nothing beyond a personal recognition that deities do not exist. No liturgy, no services, no rules, nothing that would make it a religion of any kind

C. Atheism means 'not theism'. Being atheist does not determine or define you in any way, except that you do not believe in the reality of any hypothetical deities.

Atheism has only been around since the 18Th century when some guy got a couple people to start criticizing religion.
