But I must clarify that my vote involves some reduced rigor.
I know there is/are no God/gods to the same degree that I know there is no elephant in my refrigerator. I do not claim this knowledge is absolute and unqualified as I do not believe in the possibility of such knowledge (the unknown unknowns can only be unknown) hence below some noise level, all such claims are agnostic. But within the limits of my instrumentation and within conventions of common discourse, I know there is no elephant in my refrigerator and know it is rational to believe there is/are no God/gods.

If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god. If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.
