Neither a theist nor an atheist

Surely there are degrees of certainty in a person's beliefs.
I would say that Faith is 100% certain of her positions but I don't think many of us share that level of conviction.I would place myself at about 95% along a scale towards Atheism since I have yet to see any evidence saying otherwise yet I am unable to hold the absolute conviction that God does not exist.Does that make me an Atheist?.In the chart it would place me as a (mostly) gnostic atheist but not all the way into the corner.

That makes no sense to me. If you have a firm (let's say absolute) belief in something then you are, by definition, 100% certain that you are correct. Take Faith's position about the bible as an example. right or wrong, there is absolutely no doubt in her certainty that the bible is 100% correct All depends on definitions doesn't it?
personally I agree with you that atheism is just a lack of belief. nothing more and nothing less but my experience has been that most people see atheists as having a positive belief in the absence of God. I've often argued that point in the past.
