You're the one pushing a wrong interpretation of the word agnosticism. So far, I've only been defending my case through reason and philosophical arguments. You're not made of teflon, you don't get to just assume you're right and ignore my arguments because you feel like it.

You don't get extra powers over language because you're an atheist. Special treatment works both ways. And I'd watch your words or I'm going to stuff the whole Silmarillion where the sun doth not shineth if you'd like a fairy tale book.

Oh no i'm not. The word is fine as it is, and you don't get to project yourself as the people of the world. Only you and your sub-set of people use it wrong. You are the ones that need to use it right. It's not the word that should change for the rest of us. That is arrogance of the highest order.

Besides, your definition of Atheism is completely illogical, so even if you managed to change the meaning of Agnosticism, you will never manage to change the meaning of Atheism to mean the "belief of no god". They will therefore always mean the same position. It's sad but there is no anti position to belief. We are very sorry for the incovenience that poses.

Look, now we're both disagreeing on who's using the term right. I remain behind my argument. You're misusing the term and doing so clearly to defend your own viewpoint at the cost of a widely held position. If you don't agree with that, start using better arguments, because you've been entirely unconvincing that you even have a basic grasp of what agnosticism means.
