My religion teacher said that there are no atheists because in order to reject God, you must first have a concept of God, and if you have a concept of God, you are not an atheist. In what way is this true, if at all? Why?

That’s moronic.

Just because I am aware of the concept of Gods, or unicorns or chupacabra, doesn’t mean they are real. That’s… some really bad philosophy.

I have heard of the concepts of qlippoth, of daemons and devils, of the Dark Young, of Grays abducting people, and much more bizarre shit. It doesn’t mean they are all real. That is not how reality works. You CAN just make shit up.

How did a computer scientist such as Geoffrey Hinton manage to win a Nobel Prize in physics when computer science already has its own Nobel Prize equivalent in the Turing Awards?

You have to BELIEVE GODS ARE REAL to believe that gods are real.
