Agnostic vrs. Atheist

"The person who thinks he hasn't seen proof of God is you, or another agnostic." Also, please dont refer to me as an agnostic. I dont believe in God, I am an Atheist. - UnlimitedAccess 22:32, 23 Jun 2005 (UTC)

I prefer to consider you an agnostic, since true atheism (denial of God) is the absolute in wickedness (amalek) IMO. Sam Spade 23:11, 23 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Well im sorry 99% of Atheists dont deny Gods existance, that would be denial of negation fallacy. We simply dont belief in anything we see no evidence for. Most people dont see the difference between disbelief and denying something, its a slight logistical difference which isnt made very apparant in English like it is in other languages, so you will find most people who dont believe in God just arent aware of the denial of negation fallacy. :) - UnlimitedAccess 23:31, 24 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Their is another word for someone who denys Gods existance... and I cant believe I cant think of it. I generally wouldnt refer to them as Atheists... but academically the study of Atheists generally reveals them to be called "Hard Atheists". Look at the Atheist page, its a little incorrect, but good enough. - UnlimitedAccess 23:33, 24 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Yes, i know. I've edited that page periodically trying to make it more accurate, but I get angrilly chased off. Wiki has an issue w POV lobbies on certain pages, and that is one of them. Anarchism is another. Sam Spade 00:25, 25 Jun 2005 (UTC)
