If the person enquiring is a Christian, Muslim, or a Jew, then I'm an atheist. For all other people, I'm an agnostic but with absolutely no reason to believe.

CONTEXT: My sister (calls herself a christian but dabbles in astrology and fortunetellers strangely enough nor does she think genesis is true, which makes me want to facepalm. For simplicity's sake, she is just very confused) made a bold statement ...

Hello everyone, I'm Lisa and consider myself to be both atheist and agnostic. In every sense of the word, I reject religion the way it has been presented to me. I do not have faith in atheism to say that they know the absolute truth either. That ...

We can quibble about the "right" words until the cows come home. Me, I call myself atheist. I don't KNOW that there is no god, I am just pretty sure there is no god. I guess agnostic would be a better description of me, but it don't matter. Moo ...

Ugh. There’s an agnostic group. I wish they would just come to terms with their being atheists and move on to bigger and better things.

How would you label me? a Christian Atheist? for I grew up in a christian culture or what? I consider myself an atheist that believes in God. My definition of god is that unknowable ether that resides in the dark void of ultimate reality.

Note: this was posted on the main discussion board. I still can't figure out how to link to the groups page. Language matters because we think, reason, and express ourselves through language. You are not thinking as clearly as you are able, if you...

So agnosticism is a claim on knowledge, not belief and can therefore be used as an adjective to describe one's knowledge on a topic of belief. I myself am an agnostic atheist. People can be an agnostic theist or agnostic deist

I am an atheist. I do not consider myself an agnostic, I do not believe that it is "unkowable", even if it is currently "unkown", those are two different things entirely. There are many god claims which can be directly disproved by observation of...
