Spot on.

Theists have faith - that is Theists believe God exists without proof

Atheists believe in the non-existence of God.

Agnostics do not “believe” as in having “faith” (belief without proof). Agnostics require proof.

By his definition of his belief set, Jillette would be an Agnostic.

Oh. Well. That's pretty offensive.

I was trying to give him the benefit of the doubt, since he is a talented performer. I guess he's more of a jerk than I thought.

Wow! I’ve never heard of that before.

I’m glad at least some of the magicians walked out.
