Theist=Believer Atheist=believes in no higher being at all. This is it-mindset. Constructive question means you question to get answers that would strenthen your faith. Destructive is quite the opposite.
It depends on your starting point: * If you are a non-Christian questioning your present god(s) and coming over to Christianity, it is called "seeing the light" or "being saved". * If you are a Muslim questioning Allah you are seen as an apostate * If you a non-Christian, non-Jew, non-Muslim questioning your own god(s) you are probably not even noticed * If you are a Christian questioning your God in favour of another religion you are called "lost" * If you are Christian questioning your own God and all other gods you are an agnostic * If you are anyone questioning your god(s) and landing on a "does not exist" answer you are an atheist
A nontheist is someone who does not believe in a specific deity or god, while an atheist specifically denies the existence of any deity or god.
The main difference between an agnostic theist and an agnostic atheist is that an agnostic theist believes in the existence of a higher power or deity but acknowledges that it cannot be proven, while an agnostic atheist does not believe in a higher power or deity and also acknowledges that it cannot be proven.
A huge difference, if your like Dimmesdale (an atheist) you will go to hell, and burn their in pain, torment, and agony forever. If your a Christian (like me) you will die go to Heaven and have a good sin free life FOREVER.

No, Catholics are not obligated to have children. They feel if it is God's will, then it will happen. Marrying an Atheist won't make any difference because they will still have their own beliefs.
An atheist is simply someone who does not believe in a god or gods. A freethinker is someone with a philosophical viewpoint that holds that opinions should be formed on the basis of logic, reason and science and not authority, tradition, or other dogmas. So, while the term "atheist" only answers the question of belief in gods, the term "freethinker" describes a person's philosophical viewpoint. In short, yes, you can be both an atheist and a freethinker.
