I agree that the poll is flawed, but not for the reason stated. Atheism is a belief because the non-existence of God can not be proven. Theories need reasons, belief without reason is faith.

The problem with this poll is that the arguments listed are reasons to disbelieve in religion, not reasons to believe in the non-existence of a supreme being, or entity or whatever. I vote 'other'.
