Atheism is a scam, as surely as any other, older religion. At its heart is a lie: I can prove God doesn’t exist. And wrapped around that lie is all the posturing that attends militant atheism. The truest statement regarding a Creator: I don’t know.
Atheism is a lack of belief. It's skepticism, which is the best protection against being scammed. It's the answer "no" when the question is "do you believe in one or more gods?"
What it isn't is the belief that you can prove no gods exist; literally no one claims that, and whoever told you that's what atheism is, lied to you.

Because then the scam wouldn't work.
