Yes, you did. Are you familiar with the concept of root words and prefixes?

Gnostic means knowledge. Agnostic means without knowledge. They're related terms.

Are you really that dense, or are you just having fun?

Theism is the belief that a god or gods exist. Atheism is a lack of belief that a god or gods exist. Quite different from the belief that no gods exist. (That would be gnostic atheism.)

That's not religion, that's theism. Theism comes in several flavors. Those are religions.
