If we didn't take any actions unless we were free from doubt, we wouldn't get anywhere. Atheists are smart enough to say they don't believe that God doesn't exist. That way they can't be accused of having any doubt about their position.
You should read a thread we have around here that asks about theist's doubts. You would be surprised by what most of your co-religionists say. As for me, I'll keep not believing untill some evidence is brought to me. As to doubt, that only pertains to things that we do have some evidence for, but not enough to make a conclusion. Kinda like dark matter and other stuff like that. To all accounts, the amount of evidence for a god or gods is zero, I don't consider so-called holy books, edited to support whatever political status at a given time as evidence. Many moderate religious people bank on faith. Faith will never cut it for me.
