Atheists don't have religion, we're without religion, we believe in no religion.Yes. But by saying there is no God, you have made a categorical statement about the nature of existence as metaphysical, theological and doctrinal as fundamentalists who believe God speaks to them. The only way to avoid making a theological claim is to be an agnostic.

Yes. I'm an agnostic when it comes to small blue people living under my bed, who scamper out of sight when the lights come on, so I can't be accused of making a "categorical statement about the nature of existence."
