I don't see how you get atheist out of that.

That meaning

"I also believe that the Father God is a myth. I have sufficient data to believe that, more the inexplicable absence of data to the contrary, but I don't know for sure."

Its possible CH was focusing on "I also believe the Father God is a myth" and taking that to mean that you believe that the existence of god or gods is a myth. That second statement would be atheistic IMO. However you can believe that "the Father God" is a myth while still essentially having no opinion as to the existence of some sort of god or gods as "the Father God" is no the same as "some sort of god or gods or divine being or presence".
