You cannot simultaneously assume any belief while denying there is enough evidence to form an opinion."I know there is no god and I believe that I am right." A lot of atheists feel the same, however, they do not generally state it as such, especially in a forum, as that presents a claim that they must now defend. IMHO, that is what an atheist is.
Lack of evidence is proof of nothing, but how long do you search the gymnasium for the missing basketball before you accept that it is not there? After some 15000 years, evidence of a god has yet to be found.
Your first statement is very honest and i completely agree. The second one however is just wrong, as again i have already pointed out, evidence is anything which can be used to support a position, and there is plenty of that in the case of God.
