It doesn't challenge even the question about such things. 

Atheism is the position people have that simply don't believe in a god or gods. That's it. 

Someone who doesn't believe in Gods can still believe in ghosts or other stuff. Not that I think it's rational. 

Wouldn't you classify as an Agnost if you believe in ghosts and other stuff. Since those are inexplicably linked to heaven and hell and supernatural powers. Any who as you said an Atheist that believes in the supernatural is a very weird Atheist to begin with.

I know very little in the atheistic psyche, but I agree with your post earlier where believing in spiritual beings is sort of counter-intuitive. I don't get how a God is definitely not there, and yet angels, demons, and ghosts are still a possibility. As a Christian I can comprehend things like angels and junk, but I don't see how an atheist could.

Like you said, that's much more of an agnostic thing.
