May I call your position agnostic Christianity? It seems from your posts that like many atheists, you're using some nuance in your terms. It's not unusual for an atheist to point out that atheism isn't a claim that God doesn't exist, but a state of mind in which one doesn't believe God exists. Similarly, theism is the state of mind in which one believes that at least one deity exists, and is not, in itself, a claim for existence. Most atheists seem to be agnostic atheists. Most Christians seem to be 'gnostic' Christians, but both of these could be artifacts of who talks the most about their position.
I assume you would expect an atheist to put 'none of the above' for your poll, or would you rather we not vote at all?
