I kept my answer 'simple' because you asked nicely... I do infact believe in God. He is a rather diabolical character sometimes, but then look who's talking
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day
5:1 is a pretty good ratio for an atheist forum.

As the poll is written I would have to say no. "God" written as a proper noun is a name: it has very definite implications in my society that you are talking about a particular deity of a particular faith group. Not believing in the deity so referenced does not make an atheist.
Were the question worded as, "Do you believe in a/many god(s)," I would answer yes. So I'll take the Fifth. Or maybe a Quart.

Looks to me like Kill was just doing some fact checking before he replied...lol.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
No, I really don't think there's a god. But then I'm always ready to be proven wrong.
When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura
You're the one making pass/fail judgements on articles of faith, that's the business of the faithful. Kill, lol, well understood.
