    Yeah, I think it boils down to this.

    “Do you believe in a god or gods?”

    “Yes” - Theist

    “No” - Atheist

    “I don’t know.” - Agnostic

    Of course, many people would admit they aren’t certain for yes/no, and so might qualify as an agnostic theist/atheist depending on how strict you are with confidence. Some agnostics will be more rigid and say the answer is inherently unknowable. Regardless, it still seems a lot simpler than having to explain a satirical religion you are pretending to believe in to someone.
