I hesitate to get involved in theological debate here; still less to make changes without agreement, but I should like to suggest that the word 'regular' be deleted from the above sentence. As written it suggests that Agnostics are not 'regular' atheists - ie, that they are some sort of (irregular) atheist. As an agnostic (type 2) myself I'd say that is not the case. The rest of the article makes it quite clear. Agnostics are not atheists, regular or otherwise. [[User:Alba|Alba]] 18:13, 23 May 2007 (EDT)

Actually it is possible to be an agnostic atheist (or an agnostic theist). Agnostic atheism simply means that while you can't know for certain that there is a god (or gods), you choose not to believe in them. Agnostic theism is the opposite - you don't know if there are any deities out there, but you choose to believe in them.

I agree with Jjjones. Agnosticism says that the existence of ''any'' deity, whether it's Allah, the Christian god, or Zeus himself is not knowable. So please be more specific and say "god or gods".

== Agnostics and Obesity?  ==

I'm not sure that this information is correct. You can type in "religious effects on obesity" on Google and get a number of articles that say the opposite of the Gallup poll cited in this article. Here is one: http://www.northwestern.edu/newscenter/stories/2011/03/religious-young-adults-obese.html

I'm not saying that the information in this article is wrong, but I think it would be more helpful to include some contradicting articles.
