Gnostic Atheism? WTF?

[Thumpalumpacus]

There are gnostics in both cams, though I would say there's a higher percentage of theists who claim there is a god then there are atheists that claim there isn't.

Neither claim yet satisfies the burden of proof. One day we may find conclusive proof that there is a superior being (not the christer gawd though). We may also discover enough about the universe to confidently claim there are none. Before you go on about proving a negative, unless you remain agnostic about dragons, leprechauns, fairies, elves, big foot, the Loch Ness monster, unicorns, etc... then you cannot claim there will never be enough evidence to dismiss god claims as absurd.

Well, while I remain agnostic about god's non-existence, that doesn't mean that I think his existence is equally likely. (Indeed, due to internal contradictions, I'm comfortable saying that the Abrahamic god doesn't exist).

I'm very happy to say that I don't think any god at all exists. That is my considered opinion.

I'm not happy saying "I know that there is no god," because that is knowledge which I do not possess.

Epistemology is not black and white.

Somewhere, out in the multiverse, is there a universe where, for example, Joseph Smith is correct about gold plates, Moroni, and blacks and native Americans turning caucasian if they believe in him enough???

The fact that the multiverse contains infinite possibilities does not imply that all those possibilities actually exist.
