"You believe in God and I think that's a big delusion, though I'm not going to tell you that I don't believe in God. I'm going to tell you instead that you have an interesting idea that, unfortunately, just doesn't stand up to close scrutiny"

This isn't one clear point but two opposing views.

Do you "think that's a big delusion"

or

Or are you "not going to tell [us] that [you] don't believe in God"

At the moment, your post reads as saying that you don't have an opinion on whether or not there is a God, but in your opinion there is no God.

Do you want to have your cake or eat it?
