Think of this, Some where in the world is a dyslectic insomniac athiest who is lying awake at night wondering if there is a dog!

Dyslexic.

Agnostic, not atheist. An agnostic has seen no proof of god's existence but has not made his mind, while an atheist has already reached a conclusion.

a (no) + gnosis (knowledge, specifically spritual knowledge) + -ic (noun of Greek or Latin roots derived from an adjective) = One who does not have knowledge (of god's existence),
versus
a (no) + theos (god) +ist (one who advocates or adheres to a philosophy or belief) = One who believes there is no god.

A Quaker hears a noise downstairs in the middle of the night, and grabs his squirrel gun. Upon sighting the burglar, he levels the weapon and calls out, "Brother, I would not harm thee for the world, but thou standest where I am about to shoot."

[D.S.McBride]

A couple of good friends of mine (from Kingston) are Quakers - they'll get a good snicker or two out of that one, Owen.

Actually, Owen, atheist is more properly defined as one who lacks a belief in god. There are some atheists who believe there is no god but that's a subset of the overall group.

In other words, an atheist may or may not have made up their mind, but the common denominator amongst them is a lack of belief in a diety.

Theist - one who believes; a believer.

(A) - Not.

(A)theist - one who is not a believer.

ROFLMAO!!!!

OMG, that was too funny!

I know that last word was Hebrew, but it was all I could think of quickly. ARGHHHH!

Sorry, no - a person who has not made up their mind is an agnostic. Those who have a true lack of any opinion on the subject are often grouped in with atheists, but they're really making a null ststement. The question to be asked is "Is there a god?" There are three possible answers - "Yes," "no," and "I don't know." "I have no opinion" is a cop-out, not an answer.

Being a theist is to be one with a positive degree of belief, by the very definition of the word "theist".

Theist = one who believes.


If someone does not believe, for whatever reason, they cannot be a theist. After all, if they were a theist, they'd believe.

It just so happens that there is a description for those who do not believe, "atheist". This term is simply the opposite for theist, regardless of *why* someone is a theist.

An agnostic may say that the answer of whether or not there is a god is unknowable, but if that person cannot profess a positive belief in a deity, they are not a theist, which makes them an atheist.

Theist = one who believes
A = Not
Atheist = one who does not believe, for whatever reason.

"Theist = one who believes
A = Not
Atheist = one who does not believe, for whatever reason."

Wrong-o. That's not the way the language is structured. You have to break the word down all the way. Time to check out the dictionary, guys.
