An agnostic is one who is not sure; who thinks that there is insufficient evidence to evaluate the existence of god. An atheist is one who knows (believes, if you will) that god does not exist. Theists will find out for sure that there is no god when they die; Atheists will find out for sure that there is a god when the evidence shows up in this world. Agnostics will never know. There is no need to label any of these folks as "close minded". Charles
