Hello
I have something of a disagreement with someone over semantics
I don't see a problem with someone being an agnostic theist as I see agnostic as a statement about knowledge and theist as a statement of belief which someone is clamming to be an oxymoron. His position is if you believe God exists then you must know God exists, I maintain is that you can't truly know
The other disagreement is atheist agnostic. He claims atheist is a a belied that God does not exist and its always been defined that way and agnostic is simply a lack of belief
He seems to think that knowledge equals belief
Just what are the former proper definitions and just what is the difference if any between knowledge and belief
