FWIW, Urban Dictionary accepted my proposed meaning for my proposed word amonokerism.
http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=amonokerism
-----
The belief that unicorns do not exist. More generally, a form of atheism that considers the proof that a deity exists to be no more convincing than the proof that a unicorn exists.
<From Greek a = not, monokeros = unicorn (mono = one, keros = horn), ism = belief>
Since I cannot deny with absolute certainty that there are no gods, I decided to go with amonokerism to explain my beliefs.

Amonokerist to follow.
