The fact is that some dictionaries and encyclopedia define atheism as "denying that any gods exist." Most (perhaps ALL dictionaries) prior to the 1950's had as the first meaning of atheism:  The denial that any gods exist. (Or, the denial that God exists.)

And you have a problem with current usage because why?

Because it is gratuitous...and because I do not believe any gods exist...AND I AM NOT AN ATHEIST.

That's why.
