Best Answer

Peter Atkins is a chemist who has been described as a 'celebrity atheist' along with the biologist Richard Dawkins.

He certainly shows no tolerance for the idea of a god. He once told a devout theist that the reason this person considered the existence of a god was 'because their brain was starved of oxygen'. In his book Galileo's Finger he describes dismisses an intelligent designer as a 'potty designer' due to all the anatomical features of the world that resemble no intelligently designedness.

What is a person called who is between an atheist and an agnostic?

These are fine distinctions, but some philosophers define a range of beliefs: Thiest - certain that god exists. Weak thiest - acknowledges that one can't be certain, but believes. Agnostic - neither believes nor disbelieves. Weak atheist - acknowledges that one can't be certain, but disbelieves. Strong atheist - certain there is no god. As you can see, "weak atheists" hold the middle ground - in fact, most atheists are probably weak atheists - they acknowledge that certainty isn't possible, but it is very unlikely that god actually exists.
