I would call a para-atheist a person who declares him self in public as an atheist but deep down in his soul he believes only "almost"in the non existence of God.
We believe in the non existence of God just as much as we believe in the non existence of fairies, making as para-fairiens.
It's nonsense to talk about belief in non existence, you know what it's called? No belief. You know what we call people who have no belief in God? Atheists! Don't confuse yourself with semantics and double negatives, the entire concept of 'para-atheism' is ridiculous and yet another attempt by christians to cause divisiveness amongst atheists.
A lot of the arguements I hear from christians seem to be flawed in many crucial aspects originating from their misunderstanding of basic terms, such as atheist, belief, and almost complete lack of critical thinking skills.
You're either theistic or you're not.
You're either a fairy believer or you're not.
