What claims does an atheist have. It is nothing but a lack of belief. You must be talking about the anti-theists.
No, its a belief that there is no God (oh what an irony...). That is different from a lack of belief. A lack of belief is more the way an agnost looks at it... He is undecided, and lacks faith.

As for being a Christian, i've been one for a few months, so i don't have much experience, but it can be quite hard, especially when you have a friend who is completely atheist, and won't budge. Then again, he just thinks its fun debating about it... Doesn't really care.

And as for going to Church, moustache, i go to a place called "St Mikes" (St Michael's) and I have never felt the way i did that night again, but when the Church roars with the singing and the music in the background, when people cheer and shout the words of some songs, it gets very close... We were just on BBC1 actually, for anyone who's in the UK (my first TV appearance, hehe) a few sundays ago, the celebration for Pentecost, a hundred years after the last Welsh religious revival. My favorite song is "When oceans rise and thunders roar..."
