There, fixed that for you. For me, atheism is just a lack of belief in this 'god' thing the theist are all excited about. For you, atheism means you understand perfectly well what this god thing is and you have evidence for its non-existence. Go for it buddy. Show us what you got.
But you don't speak for me. I'm a defacto atheist as a result of my bewilderment as to what a god could possibly be. It is not a well defined concept so I have no idea whether or not this fuzzily defined thing exists. But I don't really care either, certainly not enough to sacrifice my own clarity by claiming to know gods don't exist when I have no frigging idea what counts as a god. Certainly plenty exist as mythical figures.
