Today words are loosing their true meaning to peoples feelings.
The situation isn't helped by people who cannot spell or use apostrophes.

So, the question becomes one of whether God is explained by the structure of our brains, or the structure of our brains explained by God. Is it a "true" religious experience or a delusion?
It's exactly this kind of intriguing question that injects the 'agnostic' into my 'lack of belief in a god or gods' and which makes "agnostic atheist" essentially the correct label for me.

Neither is it helped by people belittling and mocking other people for their spelling.

On the contrary as KellyJay acknowledged.
A shared language is the first step in communication;
accepted definitions, accepted spellings, accepted grammar,
then we can all understand each other.

I agree with you; I don't always take the proper time to review what I have written. So I don't review spelling or punctuation as I should have. It is the same flaw in some of my chess games, as I hit the button to complete the move I see my mistake. Going a little to fast instead of taking my time and thoughtfully thinking it through, my bad.

Now Ghost if you understand Agnostic Athiest then YOU answer.

When an Atheist decides God may be discovered in the future even if unprovable, hasn't he moved from Atheist to Agnostic ?

When an Agnostic decides RATHER then "Possibly? But Can't Prove" he has total lack of belief in God's existence, is he still an Agnostic?
I once knew an Episcopalian priest who said he was an agnostic. He believed in God, but could not prove that his belief was true or that God really existed; he believed but did not know. So, there you have an example of an agnostic theist. If that is possible, then why not an agnostic non-theist or an agnostic atheist, too? The human response to the proposition of divinity is non-binary, but encompasses a spectrum.
