I agree with the Op and all add my own bit.

I usually define Agnostic as someone "who believes but does not know". Under that definition, I think most people could be defined as some sort of agnostic. A theist "believes in god, but does not know" with absolute certainty that god exists. Likewise, an Atheist "believes there is no god, but does not know" that god does not exist. They're all basically Agnostic Atheist or Agnostic Theists.

Yeah, I agree. It takes a pretty self-centered person to think that God could allow all the atrocities in human history but would never give your wife cancer.

I didntknow there was a difference and from I just read online im not quite sure i understand the difference. atheist deny gods existence but agnostics believe its impossible to know,so basically atheists give reasons and agnostics dont even try?

Theists believe that a god exists

Atheists reject the notion a god exists

Agnostic says a god existence(or lack of) is unprovable

you can be an agnostic atheist or an agnostic theist or an agnostic deist

or you can be a gnostic any of those

but you can't just be "agnostic"

it holds no meaning by itself

So it would be:

without knowing the existence of god = theist
without knowing the none existence of god = atheist

do you have to have perfect knowledge of the truth value of a proposition before you say what you believe about it?
