Erm...
Either you don't think the existence of god is unprovable (and thereby think it is provable...double negative remember), or you think the existence of god is unprovable.
As for certainty, I am talking about relative certainty, not absolute. I'm near enough 100% certain about most things I do (for instance I'm 100% certain I will not get shot by a sniper when I open my door tomorrow), and that includes my disbelief in God. The key thing to remember about certainty is that it is not knowledge. You can be 100% certain about something and still be wrong. Certainty is an attitude.
So really, if you think that the existence of god is unprovable, you are a 6 or 5, depending on your certainty. If you think that god is provable (or that the non-existence of god is unprovable) then you are either a 6.5 or a 7, again, depending on your level of certainty.

Quote:Holds God’s non-existence as provable - NO, only highly improbable and (depending on the specific god concept evaluated) in most cases a highly immoral concept
