Bentway, some people believe with all their heart and some are in doubt and some people are sure. Some people believe with all their heart = some people are sure = atheists dictionary.reference.com a person who denies or disbelieves the existence of a supreme being or beings. Some are in doubt = agnostics Doesn't this describe you exactly?: en.wikipedia.org Agnostic atheism *The view of those who do not believe in the existence of any deity, but do not claim to know if a deity does or does not exist* If so, you're a type of agnostic. We're arguing the precise meaning of words here. ================================================================================== No one can know for sure. It is impossible. If we use knowing as he criteria for an atheist we might as well throw out the term atheist altogether. Atheists are SURE. They no DOUBT. They are positive. Which makes you an agnostic. ================================================================================== This is my last post on this subject. If you want to make up your own definitions of words, you're not worth talking to.
