Agnostic: a pointless term?

[robvalue]

If you don't like how the terms are used that's fine, but you will find yourself at odds with everyone who uses them. Of course knowledge is a word that can be defined in many different ways. Depending on your definition, you'll get different answers. In this case, yes, knowledge is generally considered to be synonymous with absolute certainty. So I advise using that definition in regard to these terms. But there is always room for debate about that. I am absolutely certain no omnipotent god exists, because it's logically possible. I'm not absolutely certain a floating teapot doesn't exist though.
