The phrase you are probably searching for is "agnostic.' It is generally used for people who are undecided or uncaring about religious/spiritual issues.

In reality, most atheists are open to the idea of religion. Atheists are commonly divided into two categories. "Strong" atheists make a positive assertion that there is no god. While "weak" atheists say that it is possible that gods exist, but they dont believe such is the case.

Basically it goes like this.

Strong atheist - "I believe that there is no god"

Weak atheist -- "I dont believe that there is a god"

The difference appears small at first, but logically, "weak Atheism" has a much stronger footing as it is open to evidence, and is by far the more common type of atheism.

Does Matt Bellamy have a religion?

Matt does not believe in god. In fact he disses god in the songs Megalomonia and Fury. (I"m not going to change your answer) but Megalomania doesn't diss god. I could see how you interpret "What were we built for, will someone tell me please" I think he's more talking about how he over sees society and thinks its just useless and he wants to see purpose.
