Yyyyyup. Technically, everyone is an atheist.

no

that was not my point at all

you are whatever you decide to be

atheism doesn’t necessarily mean “i know there is no god” and it certainly doesn’t mean “there is absolutely no god”

it means you don’t believe in a god

that’s it

“We are all atheists about most of the gods humanity has ever believed in. Some of us just go one god further.” – Richard Dawkins
