       To disbelieve can mean to have no belief at all, but it can also mean to   
   believe something is incorrect. That is very unfortunate imo, and possibly the   
   cause of some honest confustion...POSSIBLY.

       To honestly have no belief requires considering the possibility that   
   something is correct as well as that it's not correct. You make it clearly   
   obvious you can consider the possibility that God does not exist as being   
   correct. Try to present some evidence that you can also consider the   
   possibility   
   that God does exist as being correct, if you really would like to try   
   pretending   
   you honestly have no belief about it.
