What am I atheist or what but not theist?
March 29, 2015 at 7:35 am
I beleive 99.99% that there is no God. but i beleive 00.001% in God that God exists only due to punishment after life.
I am free from all religions mean i don,t follow any religion that,s why i am free from all boundreis of all religions.
If some one asks me "Do you beleive in God", my answer is "I don,t know" because i do not have any clear and proper evidence of existance of God but i also don,t have any proper and clear evidence which proves there is no God. In this situation after a lot of researching i left religion and now i feel my self free from all religions because i think religions are harmfull for humans.
You guys tell me in this situation what can i call myself atheist or theist or naturalist or what?

What do you want to call yourself?

Sounds like you're an anti-theist with a healthy perspective of human ignorance.

Once you take into account past present and future you can use "agnostic" and "atheist" at the same time.
If CURRENTLY your switch is "off" on all past and present claims so far, you are an atheist. You can be unsure about what might come about in the future the "agnostic" in "agnostic atheist".
I am pretty strong as far as the future being "off" as well, although "semantically" and "technically" I don't know.

It's not important. If you insist on a label, call yourself a free-thinker. It's hard to argue with that one.
Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.

'Atheist' is not a permanent label. Obviously, if a god showed up and started doing undeniable stuff, you would not need to be an atheist anymore because you would have actual proof for a deity.
