A large number of people have a misconception about what [u]agnostic[/u] really means. The dictionary tells us,
[i]a person who believes that nothing is known or can be known of the existence or nature of God or of anything beyond material phenomena; a person who claims neither faith nor disbelief in God.[/i]
Now, many assume that this means that people who label themselves as agnostic believe that there is a 50/50 chance of a god existing. This is not always the case. The scale varies widely. Agnostics can be theists who are having doubts, or atheists who believe there is a chance of a god existing.
For a better [url=https://youtube.com/watch?v=mkgYgJEH-e4]explanation, Richard Dawkins[/url] explains it simply.
Agnostic is a loose term that holds little value in a general statement about belief and spirituality. Dawkins realized this and created this scale.
[b]So offtopic, where are you on on this scale? [/b]

According to this picture, I'm a de facto theist.
