Absolutely! I concur!Originally Posted by IDCrewDawg
I'm an agnostic. That is to say, I'm really not sure what I believe.
Some people might rather unfairly call me a 'fence sitter', that is, someone who's hedging her bets with no real commitment or conviction. I like to think of myself in less harsh terms-- some one who's honest enough to freely admit that, "I just don't know". I'm simply ignorant about whether, or not God, or a higher being exists. I'm a true 'non-believer'. I really am.
It's really just an accident of birth that determines how we become initially indoctrinated. Just as where and when we're born will determine our education and general social behaviours. It's just a matter of time, who we socialise with and come in contact with throughout life that determines whether or not we alter our ideas and believes. I think perhaps it's even a little conceited to say that we make up our own minds on the issue of religion.
And, isn't it just a bit ironic that fundamentally what theists have in common with atheists is that neither can possibly be certain of their own beliefs?
Wouldn't life be so much easier if we just knew for sure? Perhaps some day science, or even 'God' himself, will provide us with the answer? Until then, I suppose, it will remain infinitely intriguing and a fully debateable conundrum.![]()
