I'm an [b]agnostic atheist[b], I guess, as opposed to most people in the world, who tend to be [b]agnostic theists[b].

That is, I see no reason why a god/gods should exist, but I'll freely admit that there is currently no way to prove he/they (or something along the lines claimed) doesn't/don't exist.

Most people bumble along, believing in "god", but would admit, when asked, that they accept that they can't prove he exists.

PS. Cogito, ergo sum deus.

I prefer apathetic agnosticism. Sure, there could be a god, or gods, but, at least right now, I really could care less.

If some deity suddenly appeared to me and told me to clean up my act, or to go do something, well, then I might believe. I might believe I'm completely insane, but I would believe something.

I've fantasised about this type of issue often.
Never knew if I would dispute the thing, or
just attack it.

How can you know. You can only assume.

Cognitive rounding is how. Which I define as: if something is close to zero it can be rounded to zero.

You belong to the Church of the Holy Sopha.
You worship the god of the fluffy furry things every day at sunrise and twice on Sundays. :D

The word you are after is "amnesiac", IIRC.

I had a lot of trouble yesterday, trying to remember the word that describes me. In fact, I've been trying to bring the right word to mind for some time now. In the end, someone else came up with the correct word. It is articulate. Go figure.
