Atheism is the lack of belief in a god or gods, while agnosticism is the belief that the existence of a god or gods is unknown or unknowable. Atheists assert that there is no evidence for the existence of a deity, whereas agnostics question whether such evidence could ever be found.
The belief that there can be no proof either that God exists or that God does not exist.
Christianity is the belief that there is one god in the form of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost, and is based on the teachings of Jesus of Nazareth as laid out in the Bible. Agnosticism, on the other hand, is the belief that it is impossible to either prove or disprove the existence or nature of god(s), and so claims neither belief nor disbelief in deities or the spiritual world. In short: Christianity - There is an all powerful, all knowing, all loving, ever present God. Agnosticism - I don't know if there is a god(s) or not.
It is a belief based on the premise that there is no proof that there is a God, and no proof there is not a God. I guess it is just the notion that reality in its purest sense is elusive.
does agnosticism count? if so, His agnosticism prevented him from accepting any form of religion.
Agnosticism refers ONLY to a certain attitude about a belief in god (basically, that you can't know for sure). Quoting from Wikipedia: "Agnosticism is the view that the existence of God, of the divine or the supernatural is unknown or unknowable."In other words, other than this particular point of view, agnosticism is not a world view; for example, it doesn't have a "holy book" that tells you what to wear when.
I believe you mean "atheism." In a nutshell, it is the belief that there is no superior being. It is often confused with agnosticism, which is when one doesn't claim or disclaim a superior being.
Agnosticism is the belief that it is impossible to know whether God exists. Agnostics neither affirm nor deny the existence of a deity due to lack of evidence or the limitations of human knowledge. This stance contrasts with atheism, which denies the existence of God, and theism, which affirms belief in a deity.
Some of the fastest growing church groups or religions in the US include non-denominational Christian churches, Pentecostalism, Islam, and Buddhism. These groups have seen increased membership and influence in recent years.
Atheism is the absence of any belief in gods. Agnosticism is a belief that it is impossible to know whether there is a God or not. Note that this is different from just 'not being sure' whether God exists or not.
Agnosticism is the denial of humankind's ability to know or understand the existence or nature of god(s).
Agnosticism is a religious choice not really comprehended by most people religious people.
