From my understanding of the word atheist, I think that is indeed what you are. An agnostic-atheist to be precise.

There are plenty of apathetic atheists that don't believe in a god but don't actively seek to fight against religion. Most people in Japan for example fit this description. Religion (outside of traditional/cultural ceremonies) isn't a part of their lives and they don't worship gods, but they don't actively argue against the existence of gods (probably because they don't need to - everyone around them is equally as apathetic towards the issue).

I can understand not wanting to be associated with the atheist title since it carries quite a bit of stigma and unfortunately theists have contorted the meaning to be more aggressive than it innately is. But the bottom line is that a person who does not worship any gods is an atheist. Doesn't mean you have to start debating theists or anything - there is no actual obligation that comes with the title.

From the bolded above, it is called Apatheism. . . another practical type of atheism just like Pantheism is also a watered type of literal atheism.

You may want to call yourself an agnostic apatheist though
