  • Agnosticism
rdfs:comment
  • Agnosticism is the belief that there may or may not be a God. Agnostics may hold this position for many reasons, including difficulty understanding how God could allow evil into the universe.
  • Agnosticism is the perfect "fence-sitting" position between Theism and Atheism. One type of Agnosticism is view that the question "Does God exist?" was an unanswerable question before, today, and forever until the universe draws it's final breath as it is impossible to know. See Hana Zubby Another type, temporal agnosticism, is that no one today knows the answer to the question "Does God exist?". See Steve McRae
  • Agnosticism is the view that the truth value of certain claims—especially claims about the existence or non-existence of any deity, but also other religious and metaphysical claims—is unknown or unknowable. Agnosticism can be defined in various ways, and is sometimes used to indicate doubt or a skeptical approach to questions. In some senses, agnosticism is a stance about the similarities or differences between belief and knowledge, rather than about any specific claim or belief.
  • An Agnostic (not to be confused with an Eggnogstic) is the religious equivalent of a Libertarian. Agnostics believe that it is impossible to determine whether there is or is not a God, therefore assuring they'll still make it to heaven when they die because they didn't doubt god, yet still "win" religion debates on forums by angsty teens who listen to ska. Agnostics are more arrogant than atheists and evangelicals combined because they believe their religion is open-minded to the possibilities of god's existence and other religions aren't.

They are known for their inability to make a decision on anything. They will occasionally appear during an online discussion of theology to point out that waffling is the best option. When called fence sitters they generally reply with "at least it keeps me away from the dogs on either side of the fence".

In some senses, agnosticism is a stance about the similarities or differences between belief and knowledge, rather than about any specific claim or belief. Thomas Henry Huxley, an English biologist, coined the word agnostic in 1860. However, earlier thinkers and written works have promoted agnostic points of view. They include Protagoras, a 5th-century BCE Greek philosopher, and the Nasadiya Sukta creation myth in the Rig Veda, an ancient Hindu religious text. Since Huxley coined the term, many other thinkers have written extensively about agnosticism.
