I'm afraid that ZOMGits is simply incorrect here. She's guilty of making assumptions, of playing with definitions, and (I believe unintentionally) engaging in strawman arguments.
And much as I hate hitting one of our own, incorrect is incorrect...and it needs to be challenged.

...besides, and number of you asked me to address her video. :)

I get really annoyed when people try to tell me what I do and don't believe and that I cannot be certain there is no god. You can go on with your uncertainty as to the possible existence of masturbating shoulder trolls but I am as certain about their non-existance as I am about any and all gods.

@roboticsynapse Agnostic atheism isn't nearly as unique as you suggest. I'm also an atheist. My beliefs are very similar to what you have written here, but I don't find it necessary to add the word agnostic as it's pretty much a given for everyone. Very few people claim to be gnostic about anything. I've never met an atheist who claims to be a gnostic atheist or to be absolutely certain of anything, although I'm sure they exist. Agnostic atheists are easily the most common.

You are right, but I've got to admit, ZOMGitsCriss is extremely intelligent, and she completely destroyed Kirk Cameron's bullshit in a video.

youre a moron n demeaning n you basically say knowledge is always changing ("they knew the earth was flat"). If you are going to correct someone through education it is best not to use "kiddo" because that is ignorant and idiotic since you are this enlightened dictionary. Nonetheless, shut up and focus your energies elsewhere people like you divide and well bring upon pointless bullshit besides the downfalls of bad dye jobs. But you should look into bureaucracy your bullshit would work there.

@roboticsynapse wouldn't that make you a deist?

I am a unique type of Atheist. I don't know if a god outside human understanding exists or not. God(s) could exist, but gods that have influence on daily lives and have attributes that contradict reality are imaginary. There is no evidence that the gods conjured up by human imagination are real and no reason to believe in it for me. A god separate from religious dogma, are undefined. I am an Agnostic Atheist in this case.

@BionicDance And further more, wouldn't ZOM be more of what you people would call a "gnostic-atheist"? And even if for the sake of argument, the whole world adopts the "lack of belief" definition of atheism, wouldn't a "strong/positive/hard/gnostic/­knowledgeable-atheist" simply be a "strong/positive/hard/gnostic/­knowledgeable-lack of believer"? How does putting any of those words in front of "atheist" suddenly change it from "lack of belief" to "belief there's no gods"?

@BionicDance Look honey, Thomas Henry Huxley and the gnostics before him were under no obligation to coin the words agnostic and gnostic the way it was literally used in ancient Greek. Besides, you already have like six words to describe the same exact thing as "agnostic-atheism" and "gnostic-atheism". Why is it so important to you people to rip-off the words "agnostic" and "gnostic"?

@BionicDance ROFLROLERCOASTERRIOT:D And Mark Walberg would of beat up the terrorists if he'd gotten on the plane that day:D (*sarcasm*). Why you lying? You're starting to sound fanatical LOL:D No offense but that's just sad:) You know damn well you wouldn't just be randomly tossing around Greek words in English if it wasn't for Huxley and the gnostics:D LOL:D Thanks for the laugh though! I wish you could see me! Typing "LOL" just doesn't do justice to how hard I'm laughing:D
