Atheism is just as delusional as some organized religions as they both have unyielding beliefs regarding the nature of existence. We don't know what we don't know. Agnosticism is much a much more reasonable position spiritually and intellectually.

"Without faith it is impossible to please God, for they that come to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him."

Dunno that agnosticism fulfills this requirement.

We can read also that faith is equated with righteousness in the Bible. As with the case of the patriarch Abraham, of whom Paul writes,
"Abraham believed God, and it was counted toward him as righteousness."

But today, since Einstein, is it very difficult to believe in what is normally invisible to us? In what our senses don't percieve or detect?

My understanding from what I have read is that there are two denominations of atheist.
The one that rejects the idea of deity, but believes in a continuation of life past the organic manifestation.
And, the atheist who rejects both.
