Finally, something in my wheelhouse. TR, you are correct. Most atheists would technically be agnostic. Some atheists will tell you god does not exist. Most of us will say, there is no proof that god exists. Almost every atheist I know will freely admit that if there is ever scientific proof of a god, they will change their opinion. For whatever reason it's much easier for me to believe we simply don't know YET, what came before the big bang. I'm ok saying I don't know. This is much more plausible than the invisible sky wizard theory.

Most of society doesn't understand the meaning of the word agnostic so we all get lumped together.

And nobody is trying to keep you from praying in public. Get real. Myself, and many other atheists want to keep your god (which ever one that happens to be) away from our government. Separation of church and state is exactly that. If you allow a Christian symbol on state property you have to allow all religious symbols and that gets really, stupid really fast. If we only allow one type of religion then the state is endorsing a religion and that is forbidden by the constitution.

I've never heard of anyone trying to remove bibles from library's. If you have an article that backs up this claim I would like to read it and then I will tell you it's stupid.
