       Since the majority of them have denied having any belief much less faith I   
   concentrated mainly on quotes from the few who were not ashamed, but here are a   
   few examples from those who are:   
      
   "We REALLY have no belief about gods." - Smiler   
      
   "if You have FAITH OF ANYKIND whatsoever about weather god exists you   
   are a theist" - bilgat@m.nu   
      
   "I am glad that you realize that there are no such thing as atheist beliefs.   
   It took long enough." - thomas p   
      
   "It is the absence of a *particular* belief - 'the belief gods exists'." - Les
