Just because I don't believe something for which there is no unambiguous evidence doesn't mean I must endorse your statement. If I recognize that I myself hold beliefs which are in the same boat, I'm in no position to argue that those who believe what I do not are wrong.
I say that makes you an agnostic. Actual atheism takes the further step of claiming that religious beliefs are wrong.

Sure, in the same way that "I don't believe your claim that Jeff Goldblum climbs up the latticework outside your bathroom window and watches you shower every night" is a claim.
