A person who doesn't believe in a higher being and that death marks the end.

As for what I am...I've always been a Muslim...however, I wasn't really a practicing Muslim several years ago for several reasons.

Then I saw an exorcism happen to a relative of mine who was never really troubled as a person. The way it all happened...words cannot possibly describe it, and I have yet to see a (reasonable) scientific explanation for this. Ever since, I've been pursuing more religious knowledge.

Now I see the center of this debate revolves around science such as the big bang and evolution. I support science, and I believe that God created the universe as we know it through the big bang and are continuously expanding it (and one verse supports this). As for evolution, I believe in theistic evolution.

Considering all the so-called exorcisms that happen worldwide all the time, I'm just gonna say that it's was probably all fake. I didn't know exorcisms were practiced by muslims too. Was your relative 'possessed'?
