re: #259 Talking Point Detective

I need some more help. It seem above that Sergey is saying that agnosticism is a subset of atheism. Is that what you’re saying also? As I think of atheism, it is saying that someone knows that there is no god as opposed to saying that they don’t have faith that a god exists.

If it is the later, then what is the difference between atheism and agnosticism (if not Sergey’s definition that one is a subset of the other)?

Atheism in my mind has always been a denial that God exists as opposed to mere questioning or doubt.

To me Agnosticism is a more reasonable point of view in that it says not only do I not know, I’m not sure I ever can beyond a reasonable doubt.
