See, there you go. It follows from that if you do believe in the existent of gods, you are a theist, if you don't, you're an atheist. There is no position in between. Agnostic is merely an additional description of the two.
Agnosticism describes a state of knowledge, not belief, whch is why I'm both agnostic and atheist.
That's not the point.
Let me put it like this.
Let's take bennie as an example.
Bennie, do you believe in God, answer with a yes/no, please?
If he chooses no, he's an atheist. That's all there is to it, really.
