Talk:Rationalist
The definitions of atheism and agnosticism on this page are extremely naive, and simplistic compared to what many atheists and agnostics believe. Is there anyway to fix this besides re-writing the entire page to make the point clearer? For instance this page presents atheism and agnosticism as incompatible, but to a lot of people they are compatible, since the words can be parsed in such a way to make them both applicable.
a-theism = no belief in a deity (weak atheism) or belief in no deity (strong atheism) -- not necessarily a belief that god does not exist, as the page stated.
a-gnosticism = no knowledge
Belief and absolute knowledge are two different things. Not having a belief in something (weak atheism) which you think is unproven (unproven = a lack of knowledge) is not any less compatible with rationalism, than is stating that you have no absolute knowledge (agnosticism). Also, even the definition of strong atheism above is compatible with agnosticism, since I could believe there is no deity, but I might admit that I don't know for sure.
