Poly-atheist... (did you coin the term?). I disbelieve in many gods... pretty much if you can think up a god, I do not believe in it.
Edit: Doesn't anyone want to play this evening?

In the Summa theologiae St. Thomas Aquinas records his famous five ways which seek to prove the existence of God from the facts of change, causation, contingency, variation and purpose. These cosmological and teleological arguments can be neatly expressed in syllogistic form as below:
Way 1
1. The world is in motion (motus).
2. All changes in the world are due to some prior cause.
3. There must be a prior cause for this entire sequence of changes, i.e. God.
Way 2
1. The world is a sequence of events.
2. Every event in the world has a cause.
3. There must be a cause for the entire sequence of events, i.e. God.
Way 3
1. The world might not have been.
2. Everything that exists in the world depends on some other thing for its existence.
3. The world itself must depend upon some other thing for its existence, i.e. God.
Way 4
1. There are degrees of perfection in the world.
2. Things are more perfect the closer they approach the maximum.
3. There is a maximum perfection, i.e. God.
Way 5
1. Each body has a natural tendency towards its goal.
2. All order requires a designer.
3. This end-directedness of natural bodies must have a designing force behind it. Therefore each natural body has a designer i.e. God.

I'm not Atheist, but I didn't think there was such a thing as Mono-Atheist or Poly-atheist. I never thought it really mattered...

Some atheists (myself included) may know of many gods and reject belief in the existence of all of them. Therefore, you could call me a poly-atheist.

Poly-atheist. I hate and disbelieve in all organized religions and their respective god figures equally.
