Enlightened [Elitist] Agnosticism
#81
RE: Enlightened [Elitist] Agnosticism
(March 2, 2015 at 2:29 pm)Delysid Wrote: Technically an agnostic is either an agnostic atheist or an agnostic theist. Most of us atheists simply don't feel the need to specify that we're agnostic atheists because we feel that is already obvious. So if someone is saying they're just agnostic than they're not really saying anything at all.

The reverse argument would be just as strong: "Technically an atheist is either a gnostic atheist or an agnostic atheist; so if someone says she's an atheist, she's not really saying anything at all."

I'm both an atheist and an agnostic. I choose to self-identify as an atheist, but I don't see any reason to belittle people who self-identify as agnostic.
