Just to quibble, myself, I'd say atheism is a belief system that there is no deity. Agnosticism would be lack of belief.

Perhaps Dimensio would be willing to quibble some more.

Indeed. Atheism -- without theism -- is a lack of theism. No beliefs are implied in it. Agnosticism -- without knowledge -- is the belief that it is impossible to know whether or not gods exist.
