The UN's purpose is

"To maintain international peace and security, and to that end: to take effective collective measures for the prevention and removal of threats to the peace, and for the suppression of acts of aggression or other breaches of the peace, and to bring about by peaceful means, and in conformity with the principles of justice and international law, adjustment or settlement of international disputes or situations which might lead to a breach of the peace;"- United Nations Charter, Chapter I: Article 1: Section 1

the 2 words answer different questions, Theist vs Atheist: do you believe in god? Gnostic vs Agnostic do you know you are correct?

Gnostic Theist: There is a god and I know he is real

Agnostic Theist: I believe in god, and faith is enough proof

Agnostic Atheist: I don't believe in god, but don't think that it can't be proven that it doesn't exist.

Gnostic Atheist: I know there is no god, like I know there is no Santa Clause.

Antitheist: God is a lie and religion is poison.
