could we use a fixed definition of the words atheist and agnostic? I currently use Wikipedia. If you use another source, please link it.

I prefer to call myself agnostic, because there are atheists who believe that they cannot be wrong with the fervor of theists’ belief in god

Arne Babenhauserheide Atheism , Indi in the Wired

you could say I am temporarily agnostic and temporarily atheistic, because I think I could be proven wrong in the future.

Arne Babenhauserheide Atheism , Agnostics

There may be god, or there may not. We cannot know that (yet?) ← new motto for the !agnos group, since some !atheists complained.

I don’t think we will be able to prove the existence of a god. I just don’t think that it is impossible that we might do so.

that logic gets me out of the “admitting atheist could be wrong strengthens theists”-trap.

Arne Babenhauserheide Atheism , Michał Andrzej Woźniak

My take on that prove-or-disprove is simple: If we cannot prove the existence of god, then it has no measureable effect, so it’s irrelevant

and believing that there is no ether was a belief, too. Till it got proven: http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michelson-Morley-Experiment

Arne Babenhauserheide Atheism , Michał Andrzej Woźniak

Just like believing in the ether (as carrier of electromagnetic waves) was a belief.

Arne Babenhauserheide Atheism , Michał Andrzej Woźniak

To me atheism which does not admit that it might be proven wrong at some point in the future is a belief and an ideology.

Arne Babenhauserheide Atheism , Michał Andrzej Woźniak

I am not ideologically against Russels teapot. I just think we might be able to find it someday. Until then, I’ll happily ignore it.

Arne Babenhauserheide Atheism , silner

@silner: yepp. Atheists who say they do not know for certain are agnostic (as I understand it).

Arne Babenhauserheide Atheism

The word ideologic is what I use for strong atheism, because if you cannot prove something you believe, then it’s an ideology.

just check the wikipedia page on !atheism. It calls ideologic atheism “strong atheism”: the belief that belief in god is false.

if a religious person admits that he/she might be wrong, I see no problems with the assumption that a god exists (though I disagree).
