You are a Weak Atheist. Weak atheism is the rejection of belief in gods, but not an explicit rejection that any gods might exist. This differs from Strong Atheism which explicitly claims no gods can exist.
The two strains of atheism are also known as Positive (Strong) and Negative (Weak) Atheism. The distinction is subtle but thought to be meaningful in atheistic circles.
Me? I don't care whether god exists or not. There are no experiments you can perform that support either position. God is irrelevant.
