Do you believe in a god or gods?
If no, you're an atheist.
Everything else is irrelevant.

I assume however you are talking about something completely different however.
Well, you know, it's not really possible to intelligently comment upon very vague notions of a deity. Unfortunately most notions of a deity tend to be very vague, the people using the term haven't really decided what they mean by the term, so where do you even begin? What do you say to someone who defines god as "that which is unseen, yet sustains reality?" That sounds like several things that actually exist; of course, they're probably attributing properties to it that are unjustified, but still. And there are people who define god as "love" or "everything" or whatnot, and what can you say about that? I mean, I believe in love... I'm not sure if I "believe in everything;" that seems either unarguably reasonable or else incredibly foolish. But the point is that unless you can pin a theist down as to what exactly their god is supposed to be (and you usually can't), you can't really argue one way or the other. It would be like arguing over the mating habits of unicorns.
But if they are kind enough to specify, "The God of the Old Testament" or somesuch, then I think I can fairly say that such a god does not exist.

I think any god who causes the universe, the first state of the universe, or any state of the universe to exist, does not exist.
