Agnostics/Atheists 1 Year, 5 Months ago  
Any Agnostics or Atheists here? I am Agnostic. Here we can discuss things like why we believe what we believe. I guess I am Agnostic because I do not have all the answers and accept the fact that the existence of a god is unknowable.

Leon?! You're supposed to be DEAD!

But how could you suggest even the possibility of a god of such unimaginable incompetence as there must be if God exists?

Re:Agnostics/Atheists 1 Year, 5 Months ago  
Im athiest. i dont believe in any godly presence. im more of a scientist. i rely on facts and figures. plus religion just seems like a load of bull to me.....only there to keep many of us from going insane. Plus its true that you begin to lose your religion when sum1 u love dies. i experienced that alot and gave up many years ago to start questioning things.

Re:Agnostics/Atheists 1 Year, 5 Months ago  
Well, I'm a Buddhist, which is a non-theistic religion, but I'm also agnostic. I became that way after I started to examine/question my Christian beliefs. I can't find enough evidence to support the existence of a God/god, but not enough to disprove God either. So, I'm agnostic in that aspect. I don't know .

Re:Agnostics/Atheists 1 Year, 5 Months ago  
I'm agnostic.
Some would call me atheist because I don't accept organised religion as being anything more than man-made bullshit and I don't believe in a "supreme being". I'm not sure I believe in an afterlife either, I think we only get one shot (frightening thought, but there you are).
But at the same time I'm not so arrogant as to assume that we're all there is. I just have no idea what else there could be.
An agnostic, I can't remember his name, once said "I do not pretend to know where many ignorant men are sure."
That's it really.

Re:Agnostics/Atheists 1 Year, 5 Months ago  
Sorry to be an arse here, but I'd like to clear some stuff up.

When someone asks you, "do you believe in God?", you cannot say "I'm an agnostic". That simply doesn't make sense. It's either a "yes", "no", or "undecided". Agnoticism is the belief that God, or a higher being cannot be proven or disproven.
I'm an atheist personally, I was undecided about a year or two ago, but now I've "seen the light"! The light of atheism

Re:Agnostics/Atheists 1 Year, 5 Months ago  
Stating your opinion doesn't make you an arse- so now i'm going to state mine, lol.
I'm sorry but you can't just lump people into those three categories, humans and their individual beliefs are much more complex than that. Also you seem to have confused agnostics as being the 'undecided'- we are not. Just because we are neither atheist nor theist doesn't mean we are the middle ground, the fence sitters. I myself am very firm in my beliefs- that there is no God or a higher being the likes of which humans generally think of but neither is there absolutely nothing other than what we see.
There is a great difference between doubting and accepting what you know you can't understand and that is what leads to confusion.
This is actually very hard to explain, so I hope at least some of this made sense.
