I'm sorry but how can somebody be agnostic? It's like saying to people, "Hi, I'm indecisive." Why can't people either be religious or atheist?

Oh boy, there's alway one like you in the crowd.

It's not indecisive. It's admiting when you don't know something, instead of just trying to pretend that you know for sure. It's just being honest.

If you think god exitsts becuase some old book says so, than I've got some oceanfront property in Iowa I'd like to sell you. And if you are sure there is no god then you are just as much an idiot. It really is that simple; If you claim to KNOW when there is no way to KNOW, you're just not that smart.

ur partially right and partially wrong... .science IS a group of people just like differing sects of any religion are a people..... many sharing the same ideaologies with a common goal at hand..... and since when has it been wise to stand in the middle of a one way street with two semi trucks coming at you from the right and wrong way because u don't know which curb to stand on..... it's like saying boy, u know, I'm tired of thinking of how and where to look, so let me just put my feet up for the rest of my life and worry about it when I die.....REEEALLY BRIGHT... no offense..... people like that were once employed, lost jobs, no support base, and now dumpster dive for food.. see the analogy...... spiritually unemployed.....

I don't know about anybody else but I personally know 100% how I got here, and not cuz a book told me...that don't make me an idiot for believing that....

I believe there is something out there be it God or not. But I know for a fact that when shit gets tough for people out in the world they reach deep down inside and have faith that they will get threw whatever it is that is going on with thier lives.

But for the most part I believe in God because he gave me a beautiful healthy boy that saved my life.

Some analogies just don't make any sense eventhough they may sound clever. This is one of those cases. Two semi trucks?...what?

I am a scientist and I have my thoughts and opinions. They are my thoughts and opinions, not those of science.

It's like saying "hip hop producers really like 9th Wonder". OK, a lot of people do, but there are plenty of people who don't.

i personally know 100% how i got here

from your mother's womb (that is what you were thinking right?)

[yeluhz strongs]

lol... u got it buddy......

but on da real that's not what I'm talking about......I'm talking bout a creator...

the analogy make sense u just can't see it.... the two semi trucks coming at u from both directions represent two spiritual forces on opposite ends of the spectrum- u know- good and evil, god and devil... and whether u like it or not u WILL be overrun if u don't make the right choice.... I'm not here to bash anybodys belief....but it's funny when we as human beings call someone stupid or unwise when they KNOW they have truly found something that doesnt line up with what they are capable of grasping..........
