What is Your Approach?

[The Reality Salesman01]

In that case an agnostic atheist is exactly the same as an agnostic - you simply added an extra category.

Agnostic refers only to knowledge. Belief is a subset of knowledge. If you told me your favorite color was blue. I don't have to believe you. You can't prove it, but that alone isn't enough for me to make the claim that I know you are lying. I don't care enough to form a belief either way. I would be agnostic with regards to your color preference, and at the same time, have zero beliefs on the claim you make regarding them, one way or the other. You're creating a false dillemma by suggesting one must either:

Claim God is real
Claim God is false

There are alternatives you are ignoring here...don't you see?

It is the belief that there is no God.

Do you find it easier to tell people what there position is before engaging a conversation with them? Wouldn't it make more sense to ask the person what their views are, and then discuss that?

This isn't complicated stuff..

You are making it complicated stuff...
