 It sounds to me like you are openly rejecting all of them, not just neither affirming or denying any of them.


Without a doubt, I do openly reject them all as literal entities.  I don't usually grant any special status to what seem frivolous categories just because some people ardently believe in them.  If even one god ever shows itself to myself or an extremely reliable source I remain open to changing my stance.  I'm not invested in disbelief.  But for now I see little reason to take the possibility seriously.

We can talk about gods as characters in books and stories or as aspects of our unconscious minds if you like.  But the idea of a cosmic watchmaker or eternal judge/torturer is just too crazy to take seriously.
