Atheist comes from Greek, and its early meaning: "unbelieving" has gradually transformed into "breaking off relations with God" or "denying the existence of God". Most people believe that scientific research should be based on actual data and avoid the influence of religion. Einstein said: "it's best to study science when it doesn't exist".
Due to the principle of separation of politics and religion, and in order to ensure that the science education system is not affected, the vast majority of countries will take an atheist or neutral attitude towards religion; A country that combines politics with religion adopts a theistic attitude towards religion.
Atheism pays attention to seeking truth from facts, being objective, fair and justified, and recognizes and scientifically explores the material world; Theistic religion is not convincing and can not be falsified, so the most logical conclusion is that it originates from the inner construction, spiritual sustenance or the longing for liberation from death.
