"God" is a symbol. Some atheists approach their atheism from the point of view of not needing, wanting or recognizing the symbol. Basically saying that they know there is more out there than we know, but they don't want or like the symbol of "God" to represent the unknown. Therefore, they have shut themselves off from the symbol.
