       Most that I've encountered try to claim they have no belief. Not believing   
   any gods exist can mean having no belief, or it could mean believing no gods   
   exist. Even after making it clear they believe no gods exist many atheists want   
   to dishonestly deny that they have any belief.

       I don't recall having encountered anyone like that, but I've encountered   
   several atheists who have made it clear they believe God does not exist, and   
   then have later tried to deny having any belief. What's in question is why they   
   are ashamed of their own belief instead of content with it, if not proud of it.   
   The idiot child bilgat is ashamed of his belief but goes on to an even more   
   idiotic position trying to persuade people that he somehow found out God does   
   not exist. He amusingly and very stupidly wants people to believe that his own   
   personal belief, or guess, is somehow "knowledge". Hilarious!
