This.

An atheist is someone who doesn't believe in a God.
An agnostic atheist is someone who doesn't believe in a God BUT admits a God may exist.

No. An atheist is someone who disbelieves in the existence of a god or gods.
An agnostic is someone who lacks both belief and disbelief in the existence of god or gods.

Nope. If you lack belief then you are an atheist. Disbelief is just gnostic atheism.

I cannot know if there's a god or not, therefore I'm agnostic, but I do not believe in a god, so I'm an atheist.

There's a difference between the word "believe" and "know."

This is so autistic.
You're an atheist, not agnostic. Reread what you said and the definition of agnostic and look at the contradictions.

Being an atheist/theist, and being gnostic/agnostic, are not concerned with eachother WHATSOEVER. Every person is one of each.

I'm open to believing in a god, though, if there is evidence of it, therefore I'm agnostic.

No, that's just being logical.
Since you say that you don't believe in God you don't meet the qualifications to be agnostic.
You're an atheist, and you are one because of lack of evidence for the divine, rather than anything proving atheism to be true.

If your response was just "i don't know" instead of "i don't believe in god" then you'd be agnostic.

You can be agnostic and also an atheist. But every single person on Earth is either an atheist or a theist. If you say "IDK about god", you are not saying that you believe in god, therefore you must not believe in god. If you don't believe in god, you're an atheist.

Atheist. If you don't believe in a god, you're an atheist. That's the definition. It's right here in the dictionary.

A person's belief or lack thereof is the only criterion that the designation of atheist/theist is concerned with. I don't care about your astrological sign, blood type, or current thoughts about the possibility of you believing or not believing in god in the future. Right now, you are an atheist.

Read the post you just quoted.

Atheism is a lack of belief in a god/deity.

You can deny it all you want but without a spiritual purpose, which atheists do not have, a man has no reason to adhere to any morality, ethics, or goodwill to their fellow man, much less strive to become better in life.

You've thrown your hat into a dangerous game, materialism and nihilism go hand in hand.

Humans like helping people generally. It's their biological nature. But I'm not complaining, I like helping people. Spirituality is also a strictly human thing.

Don't assume that atheists have no reasons because there are plenty of reasons for being a good person besides muh sprituality. Nonetheless, they all boil down to "cuz i like being good person".
