I would call myself a 4.99. It isn't up to me to prove the non-existence of god/gods. I don't have to disprove the flying spaghetti monster, bigfoot, the chupacabra, or the leprechaun that steals my left socks. It is the responsibility of those making wild claims to prove the validity of said claims. I can say that a flock of flying toasters lives in the jungles of Brazil, but without any evidence to back up my claim, then it is as viable as any other ridiculous claim that we humans have made in the last 10,000 years.
"In our youth, we lacked the maturity, the decency to create gods better than ourselves so that we might have something to aspire to. Instead we are left with a host of deities who were violent, narcissistic, vengeful bullies who reflected our own values. Our gods could have been anything we could imagine, and all we were capable of manifesting were gods who shared the worst of our natures."-Me
"Atheism leaves a man to sense, to philosophy, to natural piety, to laws, to reputation; all of which may be guides to an outward moral virtue, even if religion vanished; but religious superstition dismounts all these and erects an absolute monarchy in the minds of men." – Francis Bacon
