agnosticism (n.)
The doctrine that the existence of a personal Deity, an unseen world, etc., can be neither proved nor disproved, because of the necessary limits of the human mind (as sometimes charged upon Hamilton and Mansel), or because of the insufficiency of the evidence furnished by physical and physical data, to warrant a positive conclusion (as taught by the school of Herbert Spencer); -- opposed alike dogmatic skepticism and to dogmatic theism.

Agnosticism is the belief that it is not possible to prove if there is or isn't a god, or higher power in the universe. A person can be agnostic and believe in a god or not believe in a god.

This belief is different from atheism. Atheists believe that there is no god.

A person who believes in agnosticism is an agnostic.
