Agnosticism is the theological position recorded in this atlas under the theology value agnostic, held by movements that treat the existence of God as unknown or unknowable. Wikipedia describes agnosticism as a position that questions the existence of God or the divine, and as often treated in philosophy as a general claim that the existence of God is unknown or unknowable. It is distinct from the agnosticism religion-type entry, which records the movement rather than the position. It is recorded as its own position entity so that the religions and cults that hold it can be grouped and compared in one place, while each entry keeps its own theology facts and sources.
