Yes - I can confidently say that this is indeed what this is. Agnostic.com is exactly itself.

Congratulations.

Welcome to the asylum. Enjoy your stay.

You've been here all of five minutes.
It's takes time to learn the "nuances".
What's your hurry??
Rome wasn't built in a day.

Is this all there is? Perhaps if you first define what you are seeking. "This" is a pretty all encompassing term. How much is enough, how much do you or does anyone need? I had a friend who told me his son was trying to "find" himself. I asked how his son got lost. That did not go over well. However the real answer to that dilemma is that we don't "find" ourselves, we create ourselves. To bring this back to your question, if this is not what you need, what are you doing about it. No one is going to find it for you, you have to create it yourself. Only you can do that, we can only offer support and encouragement, or something that looks like that. I encourage you to figure out how to use photo editing software and straighten your picture out. Or if having your picture sideways makes you happy, go for it.

Although I've only been a member for less than 2 months, I am delighted with this site.

I have found community here and can share ideas and learn from others.
There are many different groups to participate in.

You get out what you put in.

Nuances? Really? You don't have the general principle yet.

What a strange question to pose....”Is this all there is?” I note you joined on 5th Nov.2019, but have contributed zero between that date and today...perhaps you’ve been observing us as if we were some sort of specimens under a microscope. If that is the case, then perhaps it is we who should be asking you what you make of us.

Btw - is there any particular reason why there needs to be any purpose to a social media site aimed at nonbelievers other than just that ...no god botherers? Hang around and participate more than you have done so far and the “nuances” of participation will become apparent.

Oh, and another question ...is there a particular reason why your picture is displayed sideways?

Yep, this is all there is.

All we offer is doubt and uncertainty.

Sorry we can't offer an eternity of paradise in the clouds wearing a nice robe playing a harp and being young forever alongside your best friend Jesus the Magic Jew.

If that's what you are looking for, you know where to find it.

If you don't want to participate, there's the door. If you do, welcome.

It is like the meaning of life. It is what you out into it!

(1) What is the first question?
(2) Why do you feel somebody should empirically answer it?
(3) Would the answer '42' fit?
(4) If the answer to (3) is 'no', are you sure you've got the right first question?

Much depends upon what you yourself bring to the party, there is no free lunch.

In a world where one man must discover the secrets of existence, curiosity and love will drive him to the edge of the known world...and BEYOND! There he will face terrible challenges, soul-crushing losses, and life-affirming victories. And at the end of his journey he will return home, knowing who he really is, and never wondering again if there was anything more...

Whenever I think of questions like, "Why are we here?" "What is life about? I remember a conversation I had with one of my coworkers. He was depressed and was trying to ask the second question. I asked, "Why are you wondering?" He seemed to be held in suspension by the limits of being human. I said well, you have a beautiful wife and great daughter, and you are smart, smarter than you give yourself credit. We have a job we enjoy, do you want to do something else. He was voted as the second-best bartender in Astoria, did you want to do that. No, was his answer. But there has to be more to life than I am seeing. I asked if he wanted to do something like have wings and fly. He started to think about this. I said I had been where he is and that I had considered suicide. But then I got to thinking that that would be an end and that I was not done with the journey. It is not about what you see now; it is about what you have the ability to see and sense in the future. I had no idea, some time ago, like 40 years ago, what was going to become available to me. I told him that when one thinks of the limits they now have, this in no way contains what can come to be available. Life is what you make of it, and it is a journey. All of this may seem trite. And for some, it is since they cannot think of something different. One does not have to think; just sit out under the stars and lookup. I did this, and I saw much more than myself. I told him that I could not speak for him as he is a different person than I, but for me, I saw the observable Universe and came to the realization that I was here for some reason. Not some reason given me by some other person or book or something of Earth, other than it is where I live, but I could not know what was going to be put in front of myself, I could only choose to see it and confront what I saw.. Now some 40 years later, I am pursuing the same questions and having a great time doing it. I post to this site and get opinions and laughs that I did not know I would be able to do back then. Life is good, but I find that one has to participate and be open to see where you go.

I think for any one person to rely on a definite answer, one hole fits it all, will be a terrible mistake
It would like waiting on God to rain manna from heaven
Life must be a constant quest for workable solutions free from a single source...God or here. I think

I like Peggy Lee's answer.

Look on the bright side, try, ....its free. And.....just look at all the milage you got from your post...

"Is this all there is?" How the hell would I know?

Just talk about what you want and people will respond, some positive some negative. If you clicked that you are interested in meeting people for dating, if they are too, a heart will show up next to their name and a percentage. The percentage tells you how similar their survey answers aligned with yours. Also go to BROWSE -'--- GROUPS and if their any groups of people on this site with similar interests to you can join a group. PM means personal message. Good luck.

No. There's more. Much more. Muhahahaha!

music and pontification endless pontification

Isn't it enough. If not then you are not enjoying life. If you are dead nothing matters.

Please define "the first question". I thank you in advance.
