That is not an atheist...

An atheist has been exposed to a 'higher being' or 'god' and has DENIED that such being exists

You provided the definition and still managed to misuse it. An atheist is also one who disbelieves.

this is how atheists / agnostics / rebels / pagans regard God ..... For even though they knew [about] God .. they did not honor him as God or give thanks .. but they became futile in their speculations .. and their foolish heart was darkened ...... http://dadmansabode.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=43#p43 ... Romans 1:21

This is assuming that God exists...

Which is NOT the question. Please answer without some random copy and paste bible verse and use critical thinking to persuade us.

that's because they (willfully) ignore the evidence

And Theists reject every other god without considering any evidence.

Atheists don't ignore it, they show that it doesn't prove what you want it to prove. Proving something is very difficult.

If they "come to the conclusion that god is imaginary" then they regard god as imaginary. geez!

Let me try to clear it up. Atheists come to the conclusion that specific gods are imaginary, not the concept of god. Theists reject any idea of god that they imagine doesn't match their god, Atheists reject gods that don't match reality.

Atheists do regard god/God as imaginary. There is no evidence FOR god being an actual being but that is not this debate. Atheists do not believe in a god or higher being. This means that Atheists believe it was brought upon this world by human IMAGINATION. Nothing came to the human race and said, "THERE IS A GOD!" Therefore, atheists believe that god is imaginary

Atheists believe every god that has been presented in history has flaws and is therefore imaginary, but each god is thought of as having the possibility of being real until the flaws are found. Atheists believe the gods that have been presented so far are imaginary.

I think you misunderstand...

Atheists reject the existence of a higher being.

Deists on the other hand believe that there is a higher being but they see flaws/don't believe in the gods/religions that are in place in the current society.

Although a lot of people say, "I do not know if there is a god or not" or, "I think there is a god but I just can not decide which religion is correct," label themselves as atheists. In reality the first is agnostic by definition and the second is deist by definition.

An atheist that has heard of God does.

Side: false

"a person who denies or disbelieves the existence of a supreme being or beings." Straight from dictionary.com

It's not that hard to understand.

Side: false

Many atheists do regard in conversations with Christians that their belief is imaginary.
