Doesn't that make you Agnostic?

Being Atheist means your sure God doesn't exist. Agnostic means you don't have the evidence to go either way.
I am a strong atheist. I don't have evidence that "agbjoyu" exists either. Perhaps one day we will have evidence for "agbjoyu", but until that day happens I will remain an atheist.

I am a strong atheist via non-cognitivism. To me "god" = "agbjoyu" =drivel.

If you look at human history, every idea of "god(s)" is based on human imagination to explain the unknown. The Abrahamic god is slightly different since it became a personal god to explain human nature and morality. An Abrahamic god is nothing but a self projection upon a vague concept.

For clarification purposes, I am a strong atheist. Agnosticism has been polluted. The original Latin definition is "without knowledge". The cult Gnostics polluted it further and stretched the definition into mysticism. Huxley then "re-invented" the word into a methodology. Today's watered down version, means, "I do not know".

Until proven otherwise, I know that every concept of gawd fails.
