I believe you'll find there already are Christian atheists. Plenty of people stick around hoping to rekindle faith in ideas that have lost all plausibility. Some probably stick around for the chicken dinner after services. Some out of loyalty to the faith of their fathers.
People, their minds and the world are all complex. None of them obey language. Language is at best a vague approximation of how things actually stand. You shouldn't obsess so much about the language.
Certainly there are agnostic Christians too, these are the best ones. What kind are you Vinny? Literalist fundamentalist? Is your faith solid and true, or do you have the intellectual integrity to acknowledge doubts.
Edited to let you know I've taken you off ignore in case you squeak while I chew on you.
