I hate seeing Agnostic and Atheist being separate. I'd say that most atheists are agnostic, and have seen that there is no evidence for, and therefore no reason for, the belief in any sort of deity/creator/other metaphysical claims.
Atheism/Theism regards belief in a deity/deities
Agnosticism/Gnosticism regards the "firmness" of that belief.
A Gnostic Atheist would say the statement "No gods exist" is an absolute and irrefutable truth.
An Agnostic Atheist would believe the statement to be true, but could not be absolutely certain, and wouldn't deny that there is a possibility (however small) that the statement is false.
What are your religious views?

Don't worry about it, I'm not criticizing you, just pointing it out.
