>you can be run over by a train and killed, but not be dead - @AutumnFire , current year

so there are many gods, and you can chose to believe any number of them. atheist is a term meaning that you have no god at all. just because you dont believe in all gods does not make you an atheist, because belief in one god makes you a theist

that is called hte dunning kruger effect my friend, and you just won the award

the·ism
[ˈTHēˌizəm]
NOUN
belief in the existence of a god or gods, especially belief in one god as creator of the universe, intervening in it and sustaining a personal relation to his creatures. Compare with deism.

if you have a belief in a god

any individual god

you are a theist

and therefore not an atheist

theist is a difinative statement

meaning that you hold a belief

you do not have to hold ALL beliefs in order to have a belief

you cannot believe in thor, and believe in jesus, and still be a theist

you're saying that in particular context someone is an atheist in the frame of a particular god

but it does not remove their belief in a different god
