An Atheist Manifesto

[ QUOTE ]
Atheism is nothing more than a commitment to the most basic standard of intellectual honesty: One’s convictions should be proportional to one’s evidence. Pretending to be certain when one isn’t—indeed, pretending to be certain about propositions for which no evidence is even conceivable—is both an intellectual and a moral failing.

I like the idea... but I would call that 'skepticism' moreso than 'atheism'. After all, this intellectual honesty need not be only in context of god-belief, but any and all belief. Is there a "skeptics manifesto" somewhere?
