False dilemma, I am both an atheist and an agnostic so I won't vote.
Why, do you disbelieve in science? I think not. You aren't a massive conspiracy theorist that thinks science is all bullshit and made up now are you? I know you're not but I think you take my point (I hope).
Belief and disbelief surely is a true dichotomy because disbelief just means not believing, as there is true and untrue, a rock and not a rock. So if you don't believe in science the alternative is to disbelieve it - and that makes a whole lot less sense doesn't it - if you are actually claiming to support science - ?
There are other forms of belief besides religious belief. Religious belief - and other pseudo bullshit belief like "superstition" and pseudo science - is "Faith" I reckon. Not all belief is bullshit and religious....
