I am not an agnostic but an agnostic atheist and so although I dont know if God exists I also dont think that God exists
Agnosticism is between theism and atheism but I am atheist rather than agnostic because there is no evidence for God

I think that there being no evidence for God and absolutely no evidence for him makes him less likely to exist on the balance of probabilities
Not all probabilities are 50 / 50 which would be the agnostic position but my position is closer to 0 / 100 without it actually being that though

And I cannot class myself as a gnostic atheist because this would then require me to actually disprove the existence of God which I cannot do
As all truth claims require a burden of proof and if one cannot be provided then the claim in question cannot be demonstrated even if it is true
A MIND IS LIKE A PARACHUTE : IT DOES NOT WORK UNLESS IT IS OPEN
