If no, this is one of the strangest individuals I've ever come across. He has managed to convince himself that a word should mean what he thinks it should mean, even though I've never met anyone else ever who uses that definition. Not one person. So as far as I'm concerned, he's talking to an audience of himself. He could easily test this by going and asking 100 people whether they consider belief to be concerned with certainty or confidence. I would wager almost all, if not all, would say confidence.
Words such as "belief" are not precisely well-defined, so you can fiddle with language to alter the meaning in several directions. That is fine, as long as everyone in a particular discussion agrees on what the word means. But when one person insists they are making a point by using a definition that hasn't been agreed, it's just a simple equivocation fallacy. All this should be very clear to someone who appears to value logic so highly.
What's up with this guy? His huge inflexibility and weird posting style makes me think (assuming he's not a Poe) this is some extreme case of OCD. He can think only in black and white terms. You have certainty, or you have nothing. Things don't work that way. We don't have certainty, no. But we don't need it to function. So stating it over and over is redundant.

However, as prior mentioned, when belief concerns deities, it is observed that such a degree concerns absoluteness.
In that paradigm, the human race is atheistic.

By extension, as far as science prescribes, there is uncertainty, that is, we are not omniscient of any event. (See uncertainty principle)
Non beliefism had but originated on the aforesaid uncertainty.

As we are not omniscient, we can't validate/believe (absolutely) whether God's existence is true/absolute.
Thusly, the human race is atheistic.
