It actually means lack of theism...nothing more. It does not make assertions as to what exists or doesn't exist.
Does anyone here believe in the Tooth Fairy?
If you don't, does it take faith to not believe in the Tooth Fairy?
What are my personal thougts? I have not seen any testable evidence to indicate that anything supernatural exists. So I don't believe in the supernatural.
If some evidence were to come along that wasn't anecdotal and showed beyond a reasonable doubt that the supernatural exists, I'd be one of the first people to raise my hand and say, "I believe".
