[QUOTE="Teenaged"]Being an atheist doesn't mean there's nothing supernatural, it's just that there is no god, no ruler that rules your destiny (I think (?) - correct me if I'm wrong - Besides I'm not an atheist)

I don't think I've ever met a hard atheist who believed in the supernatural. Atheism usually comes with the belief that what we see in the universe is all there is, although that's technically not an inherent part of the definition.
How am i going to understand what an atheist thinks, if he is not atheist himself?

By talking to them. :P You don't need to agree with a person's views to be able to accurately articulate what they are.
Most Atheists i know tell me the same thing. You will die, you accept it, you live your life to the fullest and you will never exist again because afterlife is impossible. Well, when i question them and say, if your life is so good, then why not hope to keep it forever? most of them give me the same response. We don't care, fact is we are gonna die. When interpretated, you'd think that their life is only worth it for the time it is endured, where as i think that my life is worth eternity. When i say that i think that way of thinking is sad, i don't mean it as"bad-sad"for me to think that my life is only worth the 70 years i will live, would depress me to no end. So this aparently has no effect on atheists but that just makes me question their moral and emotional feelings, i am interested and not here to judge anyone btw.
