Of course there is. For the record, I'm an atheist. I have to chuckle every time I see one of these questions and then see all the atheists who are just as dogmatic about their beliefs as the theists. And yes, they are beliefs. You can't prove it either way making it a belief, not fact.

There is a huge chance that ANYONE'S beliefs regarding the Divine are incorrect... Atheist, Christian, Hindu, Muslim, Wiccan, Shinto... There's no way to KNOW, so we just do the best we can with what we have.

There is always a real chance that all kinds of beliefs are incorrect. We all run that risk of being incorrect no matter what we believe or don't believe.

Well, there is a chance my disbelief could be right too. I think that if you were to calculate the odds there is a better chance that not believing in any Gods is right than the belief in one God out of many thousands of Gods is right.

2 Peter 3:3-4
Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts,
And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation

Yes, but I rather do my own thinking than just blame everything on God. Religious people will say it is God plan to everything they can not explain and be done with it, that is the lazy way, the easy way out. I will take responsibility for my own action, good or bad. Religious people will say God sent Jesus to earth to die for their sins, how convenience. I , on the other hand, do not wish anyone to die for my sins.

Of course, but then there is also an equal chance that I'm right, and that there is no God. I choose the stance that best fits my way of thinking, and that is more believable to me.

I consider the chance to be about the same as the chance that my cat created the world last thursday.

Sure. Exact same chance that the Christians are wrong in their understandings, and based on the same evidence.
