Did I never respond to the so-called contradictory?
Agnosticism pertains to knowledge, whereas atheism pertains to belief. I admit that my knowledge on the subject is limited, but also lack the belief in a God. Presumably doubt God's existence by many of the defintions people put God under.

No. Atheism is a belief ( the doubt ), agnosticism is a knowledge claim ( the not being positive ).
atheism is the disbelief, while agnosticism is not knowing. wouldn't saying your both an atheist (there isn't a god) and a agnostic (i'm not sure if there's a god) kinda contradictory?
I'm not one to pose my personal opinions. Either way it is philosophically viable.
your point?
He's not wrong and it's not contradictory. That's it.
It's not contradictory but it is a redundancy, as you can't be a 'pure' Atheist.Technically, no, you cannot. But there are people that are convinced that God is an impossibility. I am not one of those people. The "redundancy" is used to clarify.
