I'm agnostic in my beliefs about god and all that, but my friends seem less than convinced.
my christian friends try to convert me, my athiest friends try to convince me further, and my other agnostic friends are the same way. quite frankly, we're stumped. if you dont know what agnosticism is- basically it says that we would believe in god if there was more proof. we arent denying there is a god, but simply put- there's more evidence basing all of the scientific theroies as opposed to the bible- so we tend to believe in science over god. |

QUOTE(xblast196 @ Oct 3 2007, 04:54 AM) no. Then you're an atheist. Agnosticism doesn't efficiently answer the question I presented you with. While atheism and theism speak to this matter, agnosticism does not. Agnosticism is an epistemological position. It says what we can not know, it does not identify what we believe or do not believe. Everyone is either an atheist or a theist, they either believe or they do not believe. And, this is a reality that is inescapable due to the laws of bivalence and the excluded middle. What I don't think most people realize is that atheism and agnosticism are not mutually exclusive positions. |
