LM: Since studied theosophists "know" that there cannot be a separate God 
outside of the space that this universe is made of, how can they be an agnostic, 
who refuses to take a position as to (and therefore, is unsure) whether or not 
there is or there isn't such a God?    

Since "agnostic," in essence, means "a person who claims neither faith nor 
disbelief in God"... And, since theosophists do claim a disbelief in such a God 
-- therefore, they cannot be agnostics, but can only be atheists.
