I don't represent every (or any) atheist: just myself. I don't even know if I am an atheist, what with all these weird terms like nihilist and agnostic going around.

Historically, agnostic means that you don't think the existence of a god can be proved or disproved. Most agnostics I've met use the word to say they think there is some sort of god or spiritual force but not those as described by organized religions. Atheists believe there is no god of any kind. What Does Agnostic Mean?

Well, screw it. I'm not tying myself down to any belief system or lack thereof.

I like the historical definition of agnosticism because it says nothing about what is probably true or what is probably bollocks. It states only that it can't be proven one way or the other ( at least with current technology) I'm still not going to use the title though, people hear agnostic, ignore the actual meaning and apply whatever random system they use to it.
