I don't believe in atheists. Everyone worships something, consciously or unconsciously.
When you are close to someone, it is generally quite evident who or what they worship in the decisions they make and how those decisions affect themselves and others around them.
Actually, atheism is the belief that there definitely is no deity. Agnosticism is the lack of belief in a deity. But Jesus said, "You shall know the Truth and the Truth will make you free!"
I think agnosticism is a bit more nuanced. It's more of "I'd believe in a deity if I saw enough proof", whereas atheism is hard core "There is no god".
I'm saying this as an agnostic. I used to be hardcore atheist, but I've opened up my mind to the possibility of a god existing. My problem is that there is so much conflict as to whose god is the right one. Seems that a lot of people usually go with what they were raised with as the correct one.
First step, is to understand that different forms of god are being preached and interpreted by people. That’s all. People. And people can make mistakes, and interpret thru there own lenses — political, emotional, generational. To truly know the Living God Almighty, seek Him first and His kingdom through the Bible, which is written and inspired by the Holy Spirit. This happens in the heart. Not the mind — in the deep part of your spirit. You will find him there waiting.

Atheism is the lack of belief in a deity.
Given what Atheism is, the rest of your statement is nonsense.
With that said, YES there are plenty of atheists who need to worship something.
