@jerv – Despite what has been argued here regarding the philosophical origins of agnosticism and atheism, when you meet someone who identifies as an “atheist”, this means that s/he does not believe in a god or gods. Theism/atheism is binary, and “agnostic” addresses knowledge. So, I’m an “agnostic atheist” – and so are almost every single atheist you meet (or public personality). Atheists in the strawman sense (the kind that religious people like to portray) are so rare as to not really exist. I have yet to meet someone who holds a positive believe that a god does not exist, yet most people I know do not accept the god claims that have been presented, so identify as agnostic atheists.
That said, @mazingerz88 – have you ever done a thought experiment and wondered what it would be like if you were to find out tomorrow, as many people do, that their beliefs are unjustified? Where would you find inspiration? I suspect much of the inspiration would come from the same places – beauty, curiosity, love, relationships, etc. In fact, it seems that in some cases, theists and atheists may be speaking of the same inspirations but using significantly different language (although not in all cases).
My friend’s mother found inspiration in the prick of a heroin needle, my step mother finds inspiration in a belief in a god, and I find inspiration in what is.
