That you believe! Therein lies the contradiction.

Ok, I'll reword it, we don't believe in any religion.

We don't believe that all religions are definitely false. We just don't know which one's right, so we don't believe in any. That isn't to say we aren't looking to find which one we think is right, just that we haven't found it yet.

You've described what is referred to on the USENET newsgroup as "weak atheism" -- where abscence of religion is based upon absence of evidence. There's also "strong atheism" which positively asserts that no gods exist.

I personally try to avoid using the word "we" to describe atheists as a collective, as the only collective truth about all atheists is a lack of god-belief (despite assertions of some theists and even some atheists) -- but then I'm neurotic.
