My Fellow Specifically Agnostic Atheists

[Purple Rabbit]

Problem?

When I speak of gnostic atheists/theists I am referring to people who really do believe it's absolutely impossible for God to exist, or they really do believe it's absolutely impossible for him to not exist. I see that as close-minded...

And as I said... problem? I don't know what my 'problem' is either. I don't know what you are referring to, at least in this case.

The thing is that you may give your definition of gnostic atheism, but that it is not necessarily the definition someone who calls himself an agnostic atheist would give it. He might for instance relate gnostic to knowable to human standards. There is no worldwide atheistic federation that supports your specific definition of it. On the contrary, there is much controverse on the subject of what gnostic or agnostic means. Plenty of options about, none of them regulated by law.

So here you are at AF trying to make a new world standard for labels that are in essence personal and context dependend, seeking some problem ("I find it a bit of an unpleasant choice") with the new and self-defined label of gnostic atheist.

Well, I am proud to say however I am an gnostic atheist about the christian god meaning that I am as sure about the non-existence of the christian god as about the non-existence of goblins and fairies. I don't need no AF-approved definition for that.
