Belief systems

Atheism/Agnosticism:

"Weak" Atheism: You don't believe God exists, but you concede the possibility that he could in principle exist. You may argue that even if he does exist, that's impossible to know anyway.

"Strong" Atheism: You don't believe God exists, and you claim that He can't exist, maybe because His goodness is incompatible with evil in the world, or the concept of an all-powerful God in inconsistent for whatever reason.

"Weak" Agnosticism: You don't know whether God exists, but you believe that it may be possible to know it. You may not be violently opposed to the idea of God existing, you just don't know right now - you're "undecided".

"Strong" Agnosticism: You claim that it's impossible to know whether or not God exists.

Ericka says: I consider myself to be Agnostic. While I admit that God may exist, I don't think the existence of God is highly likely. Even if he does exist, until He makes His existence known to me, I regard it as irrelevant. He knew I was going to do that anyway.
