Athiests believe that there is, without a doubt, no god. Agnostics believe that no one knows if there is a god or not, and that we never will. I'm an Agnostic.

An atheist says definitely that there are no gods. An agnostic isn't as certain. He tends not to believe, but he leaves the possibility open that there might be some. Guatama the Buddha was an agnostic.

Everyone has said it in their own words of agnostic and atheist, which most of them has the right answer to what they believe in...
Religion is a believe, whether you are a moslem, budhist, christian, hindu, jew, confusius, kong hu chu, etc.
I would say that agnostic and atheist should be included in the religion as well, since they belive in something which contradict to other believes...

An Agnostic doesn't know if the existence of a God can be proven.
An athiest definetly believes that God doesn't exisist.

An atheist has no belief system outside his 5 senses. An agnostic doubts their is a God but will not commit himself to his own disbelief.

Atheist dont Believ in God at all. A-(non) -theist(religious).
Agnostics say they don't know if there is a God, and don't think it is the place of humans to say whether or not ther is. They are not decided and do not intend to decide. A-(non) -gnostic(gnosis means knowledge, knowing)

Agnostic people believe that there may be some God or higher being out there. Atheists believe in nothing.

Some people especially like viewing themselves as open-minded and liberal. They like to call themselves "agnostic" as a way of showing that they are "open" to questions about God and religion. Atheism is ultimately obscurantist; it cannot be defended without renouncing the meanings of words.

Born-again, spirit-in-dwelt Christians get to go to Heaven after death for eternity.Heaven's beauty, splendor and majesty is far beyond description. It is never silent. It is filled with the praises of God made by the angels.
On the other hand, agnostics, atheists etc are thrown into the Lake of Fire and receive eternal punishment.
May my answer bless you. Hallelujah!

Agnostic and Atheist = Dumb and Dumber.
Forgive me for being harsh in a matter that really has more to do with Grace.
