“Weak atheism” seems to match the definition of an agnostic?

An agnostic neither believes nor disbelieves.

While there is some overlap, I believe a distinction can be made.

Question: Does at least one deity exist?

Agnostic: (shrugging) Maybe....

Weak atheist: I see no reason to think so, although I can't definitively rule it out.
