Am I Agnostic or Atheist? HELP?

Question

I don't believe in God(s) yet I can't prove there's none. Religions makes me mad lol cause I rather think for myself. I'm not sure if evolution, creationism or any other of these theories applies to our world.
I think we know simply nothing. Need this info for my profile.

So, ummmm, what am I?

Thanks.

Answer 1

You're agnostic. If you were an atheist then you wouldn't believe in anything point blank. When you're agnostic you don't believe in God(s) but you're not sure because you can't prove anything and you still wonder about those sort of things.

Answer 2

If you think there's no god, that makes you an atheist. Whether you think there is proof for that idea or not doesn't matter for the designation. If, however, you withhold judgement on whether there is a god, that would make you agnostic. So figure it out for yourself (or not, no idea what that's called lol).

"...but I did not marry the first girl that I fell in love with, because there was a tremendous religious conflict, at the time. She was an atheist, and I was an agnostic, y'know. We didn't know which religion not to bring the children up in." Woody Allen

Answer 3

Agnostics claim either that it is not possible to have absolute or certain knowledge of the existence or nonexistence of God or gods; or, alternatively, that while individual certainty may be possible, they personally have no knowledge. Agnosticism in both cases involves some form of skepticism.

Atheism, as a philosophical view, is the position that either affirms the nonexistence of gods[1] or rejects theism.[2] When defined more broadly, atheism is the absence of belief in deities.

You sound more agnostic although agnostic and atheist are usually associated together.

You sound like you aren't denying God but without proof you aren't acknowledging him either.

Answer 4

"I don't believe in God(s) yet I can't prove there's none."

That means you are an atheist. Do you believe that humans at some point can *know* whether or not God exists? If no, then you are also an agnostic.

Answer 5

It's religious people who are obsessed with these labels. They all belong to some denomination or another, so the only way they can deal with us to stick us all in some sort of denomination or another.

I've found the person who asks me, "Are you an atheist or an agnostic?" isn't interested in finding out what I believe. He just wants to know what pigeonhole to stick me into.

The whole notion of defining people by what they don't believe in is fatuous, anyway. I beleive in free thought and free inquiry. That's why I've stopped describing myself as a "third-generation atheist" and started describing myself as a "third-generation freethinker."

Answer 6

Religion is a belief structure of a supreme being(s)
Atheism is the Religion of not believing in a God(s).

Agnostics are open on the subject.

Answer 7

Agnostic.

Answer 8

Why do you need a label? It only gives people a way to make presumptions about you. If someone asks then they should be prepared to listen to your full explanation. If not they're not worth wasting your time on anyway.

Words are constantly morphing and changing. Once you pick a single word to define yourself you let others define you. Your best bet is ignore every person here who is trying to define you. Define yourself.

Answer 9

Agnostic.

Definitions:

Agnostic:
1.
a. One who believes that it is impossible to know whether there is a God.
b. One who is skeptical about the existence of God but does not profess true atheism.
2. One who is doubtful or noncommittal about something.

-and-

Atheist:
One who disbelieves or denies the existence of God or gods.

Answer 10

You are definitely Atheist because you don't believe in gods.

If you claim you don't know if gods exist you are also a week agnostic.

If you claim it is impossible to know if gods exist you are also a strong agnostic.
