    You either believe in god or you don't.

    - Atheists are against the concept of a god.
    - Agnostics don't believe that knowledge of a god is available.

    I split atheism into two sorts as well - those for whom it is a scientific fact and those for whom it is a conviction.

    • I disagree with your definition of atheism. Atheists aren't generally against the concept of a god, many don't even make the claim that a god doesn't exist, they simply don't believe that one exists. There is a subtle, but important, difference between, "I believe there is no god, and, "I don't believe there is a god."
