Can you define/describe/explain what you mean by "god"? I need to know what you're talking about before I can follow the rest of your claims.
But the point of this thread is that people assert they are atheists without having to know my definition - why and how is that?
Why - sensations of bitterness, hope, prejudice, resentment, etc. ?
Perhaps these emotions may transfer to the converse position(s) as well at times ...
How - pure ignorance and naivety.
Perhaps this dynamic transfers to the converse position(s) as well.
Then again, I may have had too many tacos this evening ...
Or do we find that the logical conclusion is agnostic?
It seems that oni is suggesting that, without the basic premise as to what
defines an individual's perception of a god, the logical conclusion is unknowable whether theistic, agnostic or atheistic, etc.. For instance, perhaps - may one claim their car is red, without first laying out the premise of what color defines?
In this light, there is the sense that - without at least a general concept of what a particular god may be, a god maybe nothing, everything and anything.
With this definition - god is nothing, everything and anything, can one find a logical conclusion in agnosticism?
Again, I'm not sure, as I am really into my tacos this evening (chalupas actually) ...

If those in first century CE had known what these words mean ...
'I want and desire mercy, not sacrifice'They surely would not have murdered the innocent; why trust what I say, when you can learn for yourself?
Think for yourself.
