Because I don't believe in god, this automaticly classes me as an atheist. Also I'm not claiming that there is a god or not and state that I do not and cannot know whether there be a god, so this also makes me agnostic. I don't know whether there is a god or not, and I lack belief in it. I need evidence.
I'm an agnostic atheist.
Simple.
I'd just like to note that I have a very strong lack of belief. As I'm 99.99999+ sure that there is no god. Due to lack of credibility, evidence, logic and reasoning. I consider the whole god thing to be extremely idiotic and so I require extraordinary evidence to support such an incredible idea. God is on the same credibility level as any fictional character that can be thought up. Which is why I reject it so quickly and strongly.

Mankind's intelligence walks hand in hand with it's stupidity.
Being an atheist says nothing about your overall intelligence, it just means you don't believe in god. Atheists can be as bright as any scientist and as stupid as any creationist.
You never really know just how stupid someone is, until you've argued with them.
