Agnostic Atheist- We don't know for sure, but we also do not believe.

And we sure as fuck don't care what your opinion is.

This video is epic fail of ignorance.

We are ALL agnostics , believer and non-believers.

Agnosticism means we can not know if there is a God , since it can neither be proven nor disproved.

You can be an agnostic theist = a believer in God or an agnostic atheist= one who doesn't believe there is a God.

Besides we are all also atheists in the sense that even believers don't believe in ALL Gods but only their own.

Perhaps someday you can shed the ignorance and finally become atheist...

Atheist : One who disbelieves OR denies the existence of God or gods. (Disbelief is an absence of belief; not a positive belief in non-existence)

Agnostic : One who believes that it is impossible to know whether there is a God.

I think most who say they are Atheists are technically Agnostic Atheists. The Agnostic part is usually just implied.

You have no idea what the secrets of this universe are. Just as I have no idea what the secrets of the universe are. Just because you think you know something doesn't make it true. And faith means that there is no proof. Otherwise you wouldn't have faith in the lord, you would know. And don't tell me you know, you don't. Keep believing and stop challenging others beliefs. Respect others as you would have them respect you. And next time you make a video, don't just remake the same one,

Why bother with this twit?

[noobler9]

I defer to the definitions of theist, and agnostic, and atheist meaning the opposite of theist

I'm not an adeist, I'm an atheist...

what's the difference?

well, I'm agnostic and atheist, sure an entity might have created the universe, but we sure can't see it, religions don't explain much/anything to me, theists believe they know god, not just that there's a god

agnostic means we don't know, in other words, I disbelieve that others know god, and as such am an atheist, due to agnosticism

Theist - believes in a deity

Atheist - lacks belief in a deity

(Note that these are beliefs)

Gnostic - believes they have the knowledge they need to believe

Agnostic - believes we can not know the truth because we lack knowledge.

(Note these have to do with knowledge)

Note that knowledge is different than belief. These two can be combined to give a specific position, but many people simply leave the agnostic or gnostic part out of it.

So what you are saying there is no way that the bible can be true? Christianity and Judaism can not be true? You don't believe if there is evidence for the two faiths? What evidence would you need for a document to be true? What tests do we put to it to see its claim? How would we do it in a court of law?

[NuLLx42]

You are the one making claims here, bible boy. YOU prove he existed. and the bible is not proof because if it was then Alla, Krishna and and 100 other gods with dogmatic text would exist also.

[gqathlete]

Pwned? By who? How?How to Pwnd me, would be give me evidence that Jesus Christ is not who he claimed to be, he was not resurrected, he did not exist and the bible is untrue ..... But where did I get pwnd ? Really?

[NuLLx42]

lol you just got pwn'd, gqathlete. You can delete his and my comment in an attempt to hide the truth, but aslong as inside you know you got pwn'd thats all that matters.

[NuLLx42]

But regardless of the semantics, each word has a meaning and root. Athiesm can be used in 2 ways, but truly means "without belief in god":

the prefix 'A' meaning without and 'theist' meaning belief in god[s].

One could say "I don't BELIEVE in god, but I don't KNOW that there is or is not a god". of course, as you said the same could be applied with leprechauns and the such, but with that [and gods] one would just mentally apply common sense and assert the improbability of god.
