    no no … its like this … within the context of atheism the prefixes gnostic and agnostic refer to the following term “atheism”.

    atheist refers to belief gnostic / agnostic refers to certainty

    no one claimed anything about gnosticism at all, let alone that its the opposite of atheism. thats doubly wrong. also, iirc you are the one who introduced opposites into this conversation. i do agree the whole situation is semantically confusing. :)
