I get the 'God and gods' thing at least from a single believers perspective.
The problem is that from an unbelievers point of view, those who consider who 'God' and 'gods' are differs from religion to religion.
Also when asked for evidence for their particular Mighty God, (such a creature would have undeniable evidence surely) , they themselves demote God to a god by providing zero evidence.
I tend to agree, A Christian cannot be considered an atheist in any way, believing in more than zero gods demotes you from that logical position.
It's a bit like being married, you may be unmarried in regards (not married to) to all other women on the planet, but the act of marrying one means that you can never be a bachelor in regards to all other women on the planet.
Atheism is a disregard all, rather than a choose one and disregard all the rest.

Except Christians are not atheists. They believe in a god. Atheists don't believe in any god.
Also, they don't seem to dismiss other gods for similar reasons we do. Have you not seen Huggy's terrible reasoning for why he believes Odin doesn't exist (in that recent Odin thread)?
