I am a strict Atheist.
I see it this way
...Reasons to believe in a god...
If there is a god, and belief in such god is a requirement to have a good "afterlife" then it may seem more logical to believe.
...Reasons not to believe in god...
There are 6 senses, none detect the presense of said "god".
No Evidence.
So, the only reason to have belief in any god, at least that I am aware of, is really not a reason to "believe", it's a reason to desire or want to believe. I don't believe things just because I want to believe them. I believe things that are facts, I believe things that seem to fit logic. I don't believe things that would be nice to believe in, but don't present any real actual reasons beyond that.
I don't consider that to be "closed minded" as I gave several hours of thought into my decision to abstain from the Church back in 1988 when I was 8 years old.
I am playing the odds, I think that they are very strongly in my favor. Not that it makes any difference though.
