I like to say I’m a polyatheist (note the a) rather than [mono]atheist. I disbelieve in many gods, not just in one big god. Regular monotheism is hedgehoggy, regular polytheism is foxy. Disbelief inverts this. Atheism is foxy, polyatheism is hedgehoggy.

An atheist knows a thousand little reasons why God, singular, cannot exist (fossils, spaghetti monster, anthropic principle). A polyatheist knows 1 big reason why *any* god or multigodplex cannot exist. One of my few epistemic commitments that is hedgehoggy is polyatheism.

I can’t precisely articulate my 1 big polyatheistic disbelief (and feel no particular need to do so, since I think theism/atheism debates are futile+pointless) but suffice it to say: polyatheism is as much stronger a position than atheism as atheism is stronger than agnosticism.
