Atheism is actually the disbelief in the existence of God/Gods. I'm not
sure that a religion necessarily needs a God in the top position, but it
is often the case, and I'm sure helps :-)
I don't see why you shouldn't convert to atheism, or conservatism, or
chocolates, nor do you need to let go of previous beliefs to become an
atheist. Can you not be born an atheist?
