Agnosticism agnostic and Psychology



Agnosticism is a general stance that the existence of God cannot be known.  Like atheism, agnosticism is a negative concept. In contrast to atheism, agnosticism embraces doubt rather than certainty.

In social psychology research, the term agnostic is often provided when the researchers consider the religious or irreligious identity of the participants. Clinicians may also include the term when reporting patient information.

See also atheism and atheist.
