There was one Facebook page, "Pray For an Atheist", which was pretty much taken over by the atheist members. Anyway, the minister/pastor who run the page ended up having to shut it down. It wasn't because of the largely atheist membership, however. No, he was exposed, for well, exposing himself to one of the female atheists, via pm.
It was a shame really because that page was awesome.
In terms of your position gringo, it's one I have trouble understanding the reasoning for. You said yourself it basically boils down to what you 'hope' for. IMO it's like me saying I want to hope that fairies are true, so I'll label myself as agnostic towards fairies. Sure you can't disprove them, but what is the reason to take them seriously. What is it that differentiates god and fairies in your eyes? To me they are both mythical beings.
Perhaps another thread for another time, but I am interested in hearing what you have to say on it
