Why do I need to have faith? If I'm wrong, I'll look up at god and say "Forgive Me". And he will.
If I'm right, then I just die at the end.

Belief is for people terrified of being wrong. I don't need to have faith there is no god. I just assume there isn't, and live my life. I don't have nearly enough ego to care whether I'm right or wrong about it. it's like caring about whether or not Flat Earth is real.

I hope you can understand this, and not just reply with "Nuh uh, you believe!"

Based on your description of your views, I would not call you an atheist, I'd call you agnostic.

And you'd be wrong. There's no god.

Maybe this is the big thing that most religious people don't quite get: Athiests don't care enough about the issue to give it much more importance than "meh". Agnostics care slightly less than that.

It isn't like you'll have a bunch of Athiests in a room going "Gee, isn't it great that God doesn't exist?" We literally only discuss it to shut-up the born-again crispies. The rest of the time, we'll just do shit together, usually productive.

Now, the athiests that are religious about liberalism? That's a belief. Them faggots should be shot into space.
