That's no contradiction. There are no contradictions. Atheist: I don't believe in god/ I lack belief. Agnostic: I do not or cannot know whether a god exists or not. There is no contradiction.
Either I believe in god or I don't. No claims made, no contradiction, no belief.
Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence - Carl Sagan
Mankind's intelligence walks hand in hand with it's stupidity.
Being an atheist says nothing about your overall intelligence, it just means you don't believe in god. Atheists can be as bright as any scientist and as stupid as any creationist.
You never really know just how stupid someone is, until you've argued with them.
