No, you can be totally unconcerned with us.
You can't both believe in a god and not believe in any god or,
conversely, can't both not believe in any god and not not believe in
any god. You either believe in (at least) one, or you believe in
none.

Truth has nothing to do with belief. Atheism has nothing to do with
the existence of gods, only in belief in them.
