Atheism - disbelief in and rejection of all proposed theologies presented to date....

Works for me ... I like your use of the word, "rejection." I would add a simple statement to it, to wit:
There Are NO Gods. Works for me.

Atheism isn't a deficiency, a lack, it's being able to tell your ass from a hole in the ground. Nor is it merely a belief. So "(C) There are NO gods." works for me too.

In a general sense, the revised (A): Lack of belief in any god.

David,
Answer "A" seems to fit the best. It's the closest to the opposite of religion. Religion tends to focus in on a specific point we know as dogma. Atheism rejects it. Reality is like many other subjects, if you don't see the the whole picture you're likely missing the point.

Atheism - from a-theos, literally "without god."
It is not about belief, but a state of being. From our point of view, EVERYONE is without god. We at least have the guts to SAY SO.
So, I would say "A" after a fashion, but with the notations I've made here.
