think it is)? 1) A magical fairy cup filled with vinegar and invisible to humanly detection exists floating around each of our heads at 10 times the speed of light.

I assume none of you believe in this tea cup either. However, there is no way to disprove the tea cup either. Why are none of you "agnostics" about the tea cup's existence?

This is because the Burden of Proof exists on the person that CLAIMS the existence. Disbelief in that claim is a default position. It is NOT a religion to disbelieve in such a tea cup.

So if you claim God and i respond by disbelieving because there isn't enough evidence, does that make my position a religion?

It becomes religious when you devote your life to that disbelief. The religion of atheism only applies to a small minority. They are whom the people who say that are referring to.

Ok, you are a bit confused.
Having a belief in something does not make it a religion. There are many things about life that I believe, but do not worship. I don't worship the sun, I don't worship the holocaust, and I don't worship the hippocratic oath.
