CivBert

Short for a civil libertarian. Civil libertarian as an ideology seeks the separate the personal life of a person from the government as much as possible to maximize individual freedom. They in-general believe in things like freedom of speech, privacy, LGBT rights, abortion, and secularism. Just to name a few.

hardcore agnostic

A hardcore agnostic is someone who is certain that the knowability of god is unknowable. This goes by strong agnosticism, since agnosticism is mistakenly associated with irreligion, you can be an agnostic atheist or an agnostic theist. So, a hardcore agnostic would be strictly agnostic, neither a theist or atheist.

He's a hardcore agnostic, his opinion on religion won't change either way.

Dogmatic Atheism

Dogmatic atheism is almost always referring to a hardcore atheist who is unwilling to change his mind on religion. This attitude contrasts with dogmatic theism, which are theists who refuse to believe their god isn't real, and are 100% certain that god does exist.

Dogmatic atheism is the opposite towards religious fundamentalism, since both think they are objectively correct

Gnostic Atheist

A gnostic atheist is someone who knows that things like god and whatnot are real. It has nothing to do with actual gnosticism, as that would be an oxymoron. The term "gnostic" in this sense just means that they know. This would differ from the term "agnostic", as an agnostic atheist would just believe there is no god, but would make no claim that we could know if god existed or not. A regular atheist would be someone who doesn't claim to know if god doesn't or does exist, they would just not believe.

I can call myself a gnostic atheist, as I can say for certain that things like ghosts and the like do not exist.

Secular Right

The secular right are a group of right-wingers who support secularism. While the right-wing is often associated with religion, such as the Christian Right, there are people on the right-wing that support secularism. Like the secular left, the secular right has no defined values or economics. The secular right ranges from: conservatives, libertarians, anarcho-capitalists, neoliberals, ect. All of which have vastly different cultural views.

The secular right are a group of right-wing atheists who hold socially conservative views, but believe that religions aren't necessary for upholding those values. While conservative atheists are rare to see, they do exist
