You ask the question is there a god aren't both of them going to say no? And if one says there could be a God doesn't that turn it into agnostic?
I think to say "there is no god" implies you know just what they mean and in fact have sufficient evidence to establish it isn't true. I don't know just what they are claiming this god-thing is so I don't know how one would know if it does or doesn't exist. So I don't make any claims at all about gods, but that doesn't stop me from reporting on my beliefs. No I don't believe in 'x' whatever they think this may be.
I'm sorry but that doesn't make any sense to me. It sounds like you are saying you don't know if gods really exist but then turn around and say they don't. I'm not criticizing I just don't understand. To me it's very black and white- either gods exists or they don't. I say they don't so I'm an atheist. I have no belief in them and when reworded I lack a belief in them.
