Draw a square, divide it into four boxes. Label one of the rows "theist" and the other "atheist." Label one column "gnostic" and the other "agnostic. A gnostic theist believes that there is a god for certain. An agnostic theist believes that there is a god but that it isn't provable. A gnostic atheist believes that there is no god. An agnostic atheist simply lacks belief.

I am an agnostic atheist. I see no proof of any supreme being, but an answer with absolute certainty requires knowledge that I do not have therefore I do not explicitly disbelieve.

The egg came first and the second question is invalid.
