For those slow ones among us.
Atheism: in the broadest sense, is an absence of belief in the existence of deities. Less broadly, atheism is a rejection of the belief that any deities exist. In an even narrower sense, atheism is specifically the position that there are no deities. I.E. A fanatic, RE: Religious Zealot.
Agnostic: is a person who holds the view that any ultimate reality (such as God) is unknown and probably unknowable. I.E. A person who believes in free will and choice and requires evidence.
Religious Zealot: is a person who has very strong feelings about something (such as religion or politics) and who demands other people to have those same feelings. I.E. An oppressive fanatic who does not require evidence.
It isn't the same thing as absence of religion. It is kind of funny that the militant atheists are some of the most vocal religious zealots out there.
