Pet Peeve

I don't like that last sentence... it rubs me the wrong way....
Being an atheist means you have FAITH that there is no god... being a theist means you have faith that there is a god.
And I don't really give a shit either way, and don't have "faith" that there is, but not enough faith that there isn't one.

Having faith that there is no god falls under "atheism," though. Whether it's gnostic or agnostic falls on whatever you think your undeniable knowledge lies on.

I get that -- and mentioned it in my comment. I don't have enough faith either way, and therefore choose the label agnostic.

Aubrey;

Or were you saying that your pet peeve was that kind of thinking?

Aubrey;

The kind of thinking presented in the image, I meant.

Aubrey;

No, my pet peeve is people labeling agnostic as a "belief". I understand what you are saying, but from my knowledge that is a form of atheism. The label atheism has gained so much of a bad rep, but it basically means "a lack of faith in a higher power." I agree with the picture.

Okay, well that makes sense. It's a lack of belief, but it still exists. I still think the picture makes it seem as though agnosticism doesn't exist at all.
