    The given statement suggests that "atheos" is the same as "Atheism". The word "atheos" is derived from Greek, where "a-" means "without" and "theos" means "god". Similarly, "Atheism" refers to the belief or lack of belief in the existence of a god or gods. Therefore, it can be concluded that "atheos" and "Atheism" are synonymous, making the answer "Yes" correct.

Philosophy, on the other hand, is a broader field that encompasses various theories and ideas about knowledge, existence, ethics, and more. While atheists may have philosophical perspectives, atheism itself is not a philosophy.

It is not a system of worship or a set of beliefs, rituals, or practices, which are typically associated with religions. Atheism does not have a central authority or organized structure like religions do. It is simply a position or stance on the belief in deities.

      Realism

    • D. 

      Pragmatism

    Correct Answer
    B. Agnosticism
    Explanation
    Agnosticism is the correct answer because it refers to the inability to prove the existence of God. It is a philosophical position that neither affirms nor denies the existence of God, stating that it is impossible to know or have knowledge about the existence of a higher power. Agnosticism emphasizes the limits of human knowledge and the uncertainty surrounding religious beliefs. Epistemology, on the other hand, is the study of knowledge and how it is acquired. Realism and pragmatism are philosophical positions unrelated to the existence of God.
