Actually the belief in nothing and that when you die everything is black and gone is believed by a minority.

Do the research yourself.

Here's one from wikipedia:

Irreligiosity (atheism, agnosticism) is highest in Canada and the US (Canada: 16% USA: 15%), and accounts for roughly 10% of North American population.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Religion_in_North_America

and if you think wikipedia is biased then honestly, anything written by a human being is.

Actually, a belief that there is no deity is also a belief. Nobody has ever proved that there isn't. Nor will anyone ever be able to.
