The definition of atheism should be a lack of belief in any higher power but the meaning got hijacked. Agnosticism is uncertainty. Anti-religious is to deny a certain god.

Most atheists are to religion as someone without a hobby is to stamp collecting. We don't say someone that is without a hobby denies the hobby of stamp collecting, that just sounds stupid, atheism should be the same. Unfortunately, the world is too Christian and Islam centric to change the meaning of atheism.
