In reply to the discussion: Poll: How do you as an Atheist Define Atheism? [View all]beam me up scottie
(57,349 posts)12. That sounds like agnostic atheism leaning towards gnostic atheism.
That's my position as well.
Do any gods exist? Probably not.
Does the Christian God exist? Using their definitions almost certainly not. It's completely illogical.
But I'm uncomfortable making the claim that I can be 100% certain.
And that's as far as I care to speculate. If someone wants to bring me evidence I'll consider it.

It would be better if we could rate ourselves on a spectrum but all we have are polls.

Pie is never the wrong answer - that's why I always include it in my polls.
