As a hard-core atheist I would agree with this definition. I just happened to catch this message as I am way behind in emails so I haven't been following much lately. An Agnostic is someone who in simple terms doesn't know whether there is a god or any other deities or who doesn't want to commit to such a statement. I will have to go back and try to find Carl's original post. Arm out of sling as of doctor's appointment today so I may be more regular again on the computer.

Subject: [blind-democracy] for Carl, Atheism

from Google

Atheism is not a disbelief in gods or a denial of gods; it is a lack of
belief in gods. Older dictionaries define atheism as "a belief that there is
no God."


Atheism is, in a broad sense, the rejection of belief in the existence of
deities.[1][2] In a narrower sense, atheism is specifically the position
that there are no deities.inclusively, atheism is the absence of belief that
any deities exist.[
It seems to me that this describes your belief. That is why I say that you
are not an agnostic.
