I disagree. I think most atheists are, strictly speaking, agnostics (even if some may not know the term agnostic). When pressed, we'll concede that, no, we don't _really_ know whether a Creator exists. However, our doubts are so very small that, for all practical purposes, it's more convenient, and not really any less honest, to think and argue as though we were entirely sure.
Conversely, I think that intellectually honest believers have a similar but opposite belief. Although, as a nonbeliever myself, I have a hard time putting myself in their shoes, or my brain inside their skulls, so maybe I'm mistaken here.
