I know for a fact that cats exist. I also know for a fact that a lot of people own cats. I know next to nothing about twitehead though, so I call myself an agnostic unbeliever in this case.

Ah, you are an unbeliever, in that you lack a belief that there was a cat in the room.
But you are not a disbeliever, in that you do not positively believe that their wasn't a cat in the room.
You thus occupy the middle state where you don't positively believe the claim to be true, and
don't positively believe the claim to be false.
I see your point, though.
Originally posted by sonhouseI pretty much agree, that if I believed in deities, it would be in some form of deism.
I think I can be called a NON theist. If there is a god, I don't give a crap. None of these man made so-called gods are worth giving the time of day to, just like car salesmen.
One thing obvious: If there is a god, it is surely a hands off, roll the dice, let the chips fall where they may kind of god.
