I still do not understand. Each source has various definitions of belief. Which one are you using?

And finally, if the definition of belief describes beliefs as something held as true due to personal observation, but does not have to be true, an agnostic can be a theist.

What are these personal observations that lead to your belief?

GIT, you are describing an anthropomorphic god, and a personal God doesnot have to have some of the properties you are attributing to it.

A personal god takes on various attribute depending on the individual or group. What are some properties that god has to have?
I have yet to see how agnosticism and theism can be reconciled. Perhaps if you describe god this would help to see if agnosticism and theism can be reconciled.
