Essentially, I might say that while both group start in the same position (absence of evidence) they take their beliefs to the opposite ends of the spectrum (namely, the existance or non-existance of a higher being).

Of course, like you said, logic and religion don't mix.

You are not atheist. You are antitheist. Atheist means that you don't have idea about God. And you have but it's negative.
