If were to use Dawkin's scale, here's my perspective:
Abrahimic gods and other mythologies = hard 7. The literal existence of such beings would defy reality as it is known through the scientific method. Let's face a few things here: there wasn't a global flood, we aren't descended from one couple, snakes don't talk, etc. I'm very much a gnostic atheist when it comes to any modern or previous mythology.
Deism is another story upon which I sit with a 6.99. I can't say for sure that there was no creator that started everything. However, if there isn't evidence for it, I won't believe there is one.
Oh, and don't tell me I can or can not say. It is my right as a being with a free mind to assert whatever I wish.
