What's contradictory about it is that if you can't prove your own mind reliability to state objective truths , anything you say about such profound philosophical problems is at best subjective. Therefore hearing someone saying "I don't believe in gods" and hearing my pet dog barking in my bedroom are equally empty and irrelevant.
But it is true that I don't believe in god or gods.
Saying I'm an atheist is just a way to express that.
Saying I don't understand why I would have to put any caveats on that, I don't believe that you were fathered by a pink horse that has fine understanding of mid 2nd century roman art either do I have to add caveats to that belief as well?
You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.
