I am an atheist and just because I cannot disprove the nonexistence of God is not in my mind reason enough for giving him the shadow of a doubt based on ancient lore and myths. If that were the case then I would have to give Santa Clause, the Easter Bunny, and every other mythical creature the same chance. Just keeping it real as well.
Was this a reply to my post? Because if it is I should probably emphasise that I used to call myself agnostic but now hold the same position you describe. I've also looked into the matter more deeply in recent years and see even less reason to give supernatural entities any credence.
