That same logic could be applied to people who consider themselves 'Christians'. Accepted tenets of the Christian faith have generally been derived from christological debates between learned clerics and ecclesiastical figures across many centuries. Most Christians believe in a God, described to them in someone else's terms. Since they define themslves in terms of their faith, and their faith is derived from external definitions of previous generations' beliefs, how are they different from your description of atheists?
