No. I usually call myself an agnostic atheist and follow it up with this thought: say humanity some day, somehow sends a man or a robot to explore a black hole and at the very bottom of that black hole there is an old door with a doorbell. We ring the doorbell and soon after an old man opens the door and says: “oh, there you are. I’m God, come on in”. I think it would be kind of arrogant to just dismiss him immediately and say “no you’re not! God doesn’t exist!” That’s why I’m not just a hardcore atheist.
It’s logically dishonest to say “There are no gods.” How do you prove there isn’t something? Maybe you just can’t see it right now. Agnostic atheist is the only logical position one could take.
You can say certain ones don’t exist based on contradictions in their own scriptures, but it could just be that that version is just flawed, but there’s a core of something that does. Anyway, yeah. I agree. Anti-theist doesn’t really make sense as a position to hold. Holding any logical stance that a thing doesn’t exist is pretty much impossible from a human perspective. There’s so much were incapable of knowing.
