I'm an Agnostic Atheist! Ask me anything! [Spirituality & Religion]

@gregloa

I do claim disbelief in a god. I just acknowledged that it is impossible to [i]know[/i] that a god doesn't exist.

[@so you don’t claim disbelief in God.

@gregloa [quote]claim disbelief in God[/quote]

1. there's no proof that gods exist (otherwise we'd all be theists)
2. there's no proof that gods don't exist (they might be lurking around a mountain-top somewhere)
3. in any event, there's no compelling necessity to even postulate gods, and the postulation explains nothing... it merely tries to explain everything away.
4. therefore, I have no gods (I’m an agnostic atheist)

@gregloa

I do claim disbelief in a god or gods. I believe that no gods exist, i don't KNOW that know gods exist.

Do you understand the distinction there?

@Pikachu yes I understand by using the term agnostic. You don’t claim disbelief in God.

@gregloa

Then you don't understand.

Allow me to clarify.

Atheism is a position of belief while agnosticism is a position of knowledge.
A-theist: without god
A-gnostic: without knowledge.

So i lack a belief in a god, i disbelieve that a god exists. I just acknowledge that it is impossible to know.

Do you understand?

@Pikachu If what you claim is true maybe you should have called yourself an obnoxious atheist instead

@gregloa

As long as you finally understand, you can call me whatever you please🙂

[@I understood all along.

@gregloa

Sure you did buddy. But if what you claim is true, then maybe you shouldn't be calling [i]me[/i] obnoxious😉

[@but I believe you are. Buddy

@gregloa
