The vast majority of them are strong atheists:

.. . .
Strong atheism is a term generally used to describe atheists who accept
as true the proposition, "gods do not exist". Weak atheism refers to any
type of non-theism which falls short of this standard.
Because of flexibility in the term "god", it is understood that a person
could
be a strong atheist in terms of certain ****trayals of gods, while
remaining a
weak atheist in terms of others.
Historically, the terms negative and positive atheism have been used to
denote this distinction. Within negative or weak atheism, philosopher
Anthony Kenny distinguishes between agnostics, who find the claim
"God exists" uncertain, and theological noncognitivists, who consider
all God-talk to be meaningless.[1]
Since many self-described agnostics specifically distinguish their stance
from that of atheists, yet would also fit the general definition of "weak
atheism," the validity of this categorisation is disputed. Another problem
is whether "strong" atheists must consider themselves able to prove
authoritatively that a god does not exist, or rather, if they must only
disbelieve in such a god in order to qualify.

who are ashamed of their own faith, apparently in everything they
have faith in. So far it appears to me that they have been influenced
by what Howard Levey told them to believe in his Satanic Bible, which
is that God and Satan do not exist. If they do of course we can expect
that Satan uses and laughs at such people who disbelieve in his
existence because of his own influence over them...
