It probably comes naturally, I didn't mean to sound condescending just now. It would seem I'm not allowed even the smallest show of negativity without becoming the Devil, unlike everyone else.

That is not 'the smallest show of negativity.'

EP, I don't get the point you're trying to make. Agnosticism is regarding non-knowledge of gods and atheism is regarding non-belief in gods.

It depends how you understand that statement. I never called any of Rob's posts idiotic or anything like that, so this was meant as "hey Rob, this is the first time you've written anything stupid that I know of", not "Rob, you write dumb stuff all the time, but this just takes the cake!".

I don't get what's stupid about it because I don't know what your point was that Rob was replying to. I don't get your point EP.

Nobody has knowledge of gods, we are all agnostics.
Some people are non-believers regarding gods, but most are believers. There is no other state between belief and non-belief. You either believe or you don't. Do I have to explain what belief is to a whole forum of atheists? Seriously?

In my opinion, if someone hands you an undefined word, it's perfectly fine to say you don't believe in it.
Do you believe in Blek?
No, I've never even heard of Blek.
LOL, you idiot, Blek means radial tire! You're saying you don't believe in radial tires! Ha ha!
There IS an idiot in that conversation. It's not the person who said 'No, I've never even heard of Blek'.
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.

It's true you either believe or you don't. Who was disagreeing with that?
