Yes, I am aware of the distinction between atheism and anti-theism.

I did transition from atheism to anti-theism due to them being different positions, so I am confused by you having added but in there.
As to your question: I was an agnostic in the beginning when I discovered Robert Green Ingersoll. I was even an Agnostic Theist before fully transitioning to atheism and then eventually to anti-theism.
Yes but you can be an anti-theist and a theist if you believe god is evil, and so on... What I'm asking is if you're a gnostic or agnostic? For example I'm an anti-theist and a gnostic atheist, you are certainly not only an anti-theist, I'm assuming you are an atheist as well, but I know your anti-theist position probably implies atheism as well, still I like to clear things out.
