Let me check . . . yep, that's what it says. Atheist. In another thread I suggested the possibility that I change that to Irreligious/Agnostic/Atheist but it's all ridiculous, isn't it. Theist, atheist, irreligious, agnostic, blithering idiot, sage of verbosity - I'm all of those things and none of them. Their just labels for the pathologically narrow minded ideologues. Designed to keep you from exploring the real truth by keeping you pigeonholed.
Of course there is a correct interpretation of the Bible, or any other religious text, or for that matter, Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings. If I say Gandalf the Grey is headmaster of Hogwarts school of witchcraft and wizardry and you wanted to refute that you would look to JK Rowling's Harry Potter series. If I said Dumbledore was a wizard of Middle Earth who rode a white steed named Shadowfax, a descendant of Felaróf, you would look to JRR Tolkien's Lord of the Rings. If you want to know what the Bible says, examine the Bible.
