The first would be a theist, the second would be an atheist and I'm not sure what to make of the third, since I expect someone who claimed they did not know would actually behave as though they thought the proposition to be true or to be false.

The third one would be agnostic.
The behaviour might be "don't know, don't care".

Say what? You don't consider his "everyone who isn't a believer is morally wrong and thus evil" attitude to be intentionally offensive?
