Antitheists oppose religion, not gods. I’m an atheist because there’s no reason to believe that anything supernatural exists, and I’m an antitheist because I think belief without evidence is inherently harmful.
well if that’s the case, I may very well be an antitheist. being raised as a Christian these terms really aren’t familiar to me. I’ve just called myself agnostic and gone on my way.
Do you believe in gods? No? You’re an atheist.
right but anti theists OPPOSE gods. which would lead one to presume that they might believe they exist.

Antitheists oppose theist thinking. The term is usually used by people who identify as actively opposed to religion rather than just nonbelievers.

that actually makes more sense.
I don’t really know what i believe. I’m probably more agnostic than anything. If there is a god, it’s a cunt.
I’m definitely agnostic. if there is a god, we have no way of knowing, and I’m not going to waste my energy on it.
I think it was Carl Sagan that said they’re answers to two different questions:
Is there a God? I don’t know. Agnostic.
Do you believe there’s a God? No. Atheist.
Thus he chose “Agnostic Atheist,” equal emphasis on both.
