Are Buddhists really atheists?

Atheists in the West claim that Buddhists are atheists, so they (the atheists in the West) feel better that they are not the only atheists in the world.

My purpose is to ask Buddhists whether they really deny that God exists.

From my part, I know from my reason and intelligence that God exists.

So, paging Buddhists, please come over and let us discuss whether you Buddhists really deny God exists.

Why are you focused on atheists from the west? do you consider them different from atheists from the east?
Let alone that Buddhism sources itself from Siddhartha Gautama not really a divine figure although he claimed “enlightenment”.

@Pfuzylogic He thought he got it but probably missed it by wide margin.
