Do you have the right to be an atheist?

I went into that discussion as a strong atheist but i came out as a not-so-strong atheist which was a resultant of my own argument against myself and atheism.

That sounds like a kind of subliminal self-programming.  We don't control our subconscious, but we can influence it to some degree.  We might think that taking the "devil's advocate" approach won't affect what we think and believe, but our subconscious is influenced by our activities, and it can adopt and reinforce behaviors that we perform routinely.  If you are regularly arguing a side that you disagree with, you might find yourself accepting that side in spite of yourself.

It's not a bad thing, in the sense that it can give you a broader perspective on an issue.  But you'll need to dig deeper than "we can't know everything, so maybe there's a god."  Or you can go that route until you "find" the "evidence" that you need in order to believe.  If that seems a bit far-fetched, look into Cotard's syndrome to see just how far the human mind can go in order to force the world to make sense.

You may have to read all the posts inside this thread as "we can't know everything, so maybe there's a god" is not as deep i went.I went deeper.
What really happened was that i was providing arguments to some admin on the page.I didn't actually believe the arguments i put forward.I just brought them up
to see if they could counter my arguments(I guess you could say that it was my way to trying to access if they were worth my time).Among the many points i put forward i (automatically contradicted my own arguments in my mind)i just wanted to see if they could do it.Among these random points i put forward,i put forward an argument and they couldn't really put forward enough points to contradict it and i was grinning but at that moment i realized even i couldn't contradict that point.It made me freak out.I remember spending the entire of the next day on my bed trying to prove my own point is wrong(because i was a strong atheist then).Sadly i couldn't so i decided to be a not-so-strong atheist.This is what really happened in all honesty.Nothing more.


@Alex K ,
The current definition of unicorn is "a mythical animal typically represented as a horse with a single straight horn projecting from its forehead."  according to google,you'd have to provide enough input for people to believe why this is wrong and why your definition is better.
