Of course there's always the possibility of changing one's mind. One difference I often see between atheists and theists who are both seeking "truth" (whatever that is), is that theists very often have an emotional investment in there being a God. The ideas of an afterlife or a divine order or purpose to the universe is often very important to them. A lot of atheists would probably shrug there shoulders at these concepts; they just don't matter.
