What does being an atheist mean?

Please edit/correct the given text:
What does being an atheist mean? Does it mean abandonment of a religion altogether, or just the rejection of the existence of God? Isn't a religion also a part of self-identity? Doesn't it relate to your culture? Doesn't it carry the same importance as the identity of where you hail from? Does religion also relate to nationalism which itself a kind of religion? If Theodore Herzl was a committed atheist, then what did make him the founder of Zionist movement, a movement which had its entire infrastructure built on the religion, and demand for a Jewish state? Isn't it a prime example of religion used as an identity? What is a religion? A connection between God and man, or perhaps living life through divine laws? Or, perhaps for most people it is just a part of identity?
