Atheist vs. agnostic vs. agnostic atheist

[Fidel_Castronaut]

I think muddying the water by saying inanimate objects hold a position (eg atheism) is rather odd.

I mean, a rock could be a theist, whose to say?

I think it's quite easy to bracket out inanimate objects when it comes to defining an atheist as some who lacks a belief in deities, as I describe myself.
