It is saying 'I do not believe in deities'. Which, if you accept science does not disprove them, is not a scientific position. You are saying although science has not disproved deities you are prepared to take a leap of faith and say you do not believe in them.
Disregarding a proposition for which there is insufficient evidence to justify belief is not a leap of faith. Your constant attempts to equivocate all manners of inquiry and consequent knowledge to the means used by religion will not hold up to scrutiny.
