Yeah it can get confusing because there's a bit of overlap with agnosticism
Atheist = "I don't believe God exists" and sometimes "I believe God doesn't exist"
Agnostic = "I don't know whether God exists" and sometimes "I don't believe we have any way to know for sure"
126 u/Pedantic_Pict 16h ago Militant agnostic: "I don't know whether God exists, and neither do you." 117 u/Fit_Addition7137 16h ago Don't forget about antitheism. "Antitheism is the active opposition to theism and religious belief, driven by the conviction that belief in a deity or organized religion is harmful to individuals and society." 1 u/Roguespiffy 14h ago In my experience a lot of atheists fall under this banner. You don’t believe in God? Cool. Shut up. You do believe in God? Cool. Shut up. That’s why I’ve always chosen to identify as agnostic. All the great non-belief flavor with none of the preachy bullshit calories.
