    Top left, agnostic atheist. "I don't know" is why I say "I don't believe."

      This best fits me as well. I don't believe out of some sort of firm certainty, but because of uncertainty.

      Yup, I'm in the same place. In my opinion, it annoys me when atheists claim to know with absolute certainty that there is no god, then go and complain when theistic people say that they 100% know their god exists. You are doing the same exact thing. This is why, when in a relevant conversation/debate, I don't really try to "convert" agnostic theists to atheists. In my opinion, they have come to the same logical conclusion about the universe, but their own personal journey has made them decide to place their wager on the theistic side of things.

        When I encounter those who concede they don't know but assert they believe anyway, I always have to ask: what is it about not knowing that justifies belief? Since when has simply wanting a belief to be true been enough to make it true?

        I can't describe how very much I want there to be more money in my wallet, but my desire alone isn't enough to make it real.
