I AM A PROUD AGNOSTIC!! Also I'm new here
If you really are agnostic and not atheist (do you know the difference?), my advice is to get ready for the onslaught by the know-it-all 'no god no way' crowd. Despite the name of the site, these hardcore cynics style themselves the repository of all things non-religious, whereas few things are further from the truth!
As a proud agnostic myself, I know I have far more questions than answers. My stubbornly open mind is my most treasured possession; I consider it a gift and guard it jealously. If you're the same, I'd do likewise, and avoid getting co-opted; remember the loudest voices are not always or even predominantly the most knowledgeable or wise. How could that be? Anyway, the one with the greatest knowledge and wisdom about yourself is yourself, not some other individual or group, some strident ideology or belief system.
Having said all that, this is still a great site; have fun, be careful.
Agnosticism and atheism are not mutually exclusive - the first is a statement about proof, the second is a statement about perception of reality regarding god himself.
I am both, NatureRock can be both - or just one. That's HIS decision...
That sounds a bit "holier than thou" and why are you so concerned about others opinions ?
I'm agnostic leaning to atheist
Hope you keep leaning in the right direction, friend.
(From an atheist)
@DangerDave hah! Talk about pots calling kettles black! Have you bought that mirror yet?
Keep being obsessed by me, if it brings something into your hum drum life.
I'm your huckleberry .
@DangerDave Eventis sultorum magister.
@redhog @DangerDave @altschmerz It reminds of that story.
The professor is teaching his class:
Prof: What is the difference between agnosticism and apathy? You, Jones, what's the answer?
Jones: Well, I don't know and I don't care!!
Prof: That's absolutely right!
Point of story? Jones is a useless intellect.
@DangerDave I'm still your Huckleberry. Cc @altshmerz
@DangerDave "You're an educated man. Now I know I hate you. You reminded me of.... me.'
@DangerDave I don't have to prove a negative to anybody, least of all a verbose pompous agnostic like you. No atheist needs to. And we are consistent on all unproven supernatural phenomena.
Over and out.
Welcome...glad that you are here! Hope you find something that entertains or even educates you here.
Such a short leap from proud agnostic to jaded atheist. Be whatever you want to be but be proud of who you are.
Welcome aboard.
I never equated "proud" with the term agnostic.
Rational, honest, and most importantly skeptic are attributes I find usually influence a person towards the agnostic mindset.
Hope you enjoy this community.
Most here (not all) are rational, honest, and exercise healthy skeptic tools.
Proud to be agnostic ( without knowledge) seems awkward. Proud to recognize you’re agnostic may work? Words....
Welcome, although as a nonbeliever I am not really sure why any agnostic should be proud of not being sure on what you believe or don't.
@DangerDave bullshit!
@DangerDave so you continue to say but that doesn't make it anything but more bullcrap labeling.
