Atheism doesn’t have any clue of the real reality there is one Creator an God is that creator, it’s their choice bt when they die or abt to die then many atheists need to believe in afterlife n God as they are leaving this material world to enter the unknown eternity that they have not believed in , if anyone can’t see an have the conscience sense that everything on earth has to be created by a higher power we all just didn’t get here from any other means everything is way to entricate an put together perfectly there is a God an one day we all will meet him when this life is over n into the next

Atheists aren't intrinsically arrogant *because* of their belief that there is no God. Arrogance is a personal trait that *some* atheists demonstrate in the way they express their belief and in the contempt they express towards those who believe in God or have personally *experienced* God.

There are Christians who are fully as arrogant in the way they express *their* belief in God and express contempt for Pagans who believe in *other* Gods & Goddesses rather than in the Christian God. Fully as much arrogance can be in the heart of anyone who believes the God (or Goddess) they believe in is the only *true* one -- and all *others'* beliefs are false (or that all others are worshiping demons).

No matter *what* a person's belief is, that person *can* be arrogant about it -- *or* that person can be living a life of *humility* with that belief (or a range of any number of other qualities of manner of attitude and expressiveness). It depends on the individual.

If you over-generalize on something like this you're going to *falsely* generalize.

No. You have it backwards. Atheism is THE LACK of belief in any deity.

It is not arrogance, it is stubbornness!

Atheism is a response to the complete lack of evidence supporting the existence of a god or gods. That isn't arrogance, but common sense, logic, and rational thought.
