Look it up on wikipedia you can find it there. Also thank you for the irreligious suggestion. :D


In other words, there may be a God, but more likely not?


Yes that is my belief.

I do not believe that a supernatural relgious deity exists now or has ever existed, but I will keep an open mind for future evidence, so that makes me an agnostic. I was raised Roman Catholic and I took part in the sacraments up to confirmation, but I never believed.

My moral/ethical and spiritual views sway from Buddhist to Secular Humanist.

If we could create a universe would we know the reason?

Today no one knows your religious beliefs unless you also state your political beliefs.

Just listen to your typical television or radio evangelist and it is just like listening to an AM radio conservative shock jock like Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity or Michael Savage.

True, evangelical Christianity has tied itself way too close to conservative secular politics. I like to think that mainline denominations are freer from such ties.

Atheist, and I doubt if I ever believed. Neither of my parents were religious. I can only remember verbally affirming belief once as a child, and I'm sure it was due to the overwhelming social pressure (no kids call themselves atheists but many call themselves believers; whether they are capable of actual belief is another question). Only in 9th grade when someone asked me if I believed did I realize I did not.

Idk. This universe seems a rather pointless creation tough, granted I don't know the whole universe.
Who knows. Maybe god takes this universe to the best universe created award shows and wins prizes with it.

Whenever someone says they are agnostic, I have an urge to ask: "Are you sure?" :twisted:

I am an atheist, more specifically a strong atheist who is antitheistic (but tolerant!).

I also notice that atheism, being a negative definition, is perfectly compatible with Dharmic religions such as Hinduism, Jainism and Buddhism. Abrahamic religions, on the other hand, have a tendency to insist on a monopoly on faith in one, personal deity and thus atheism is incompatible with Islam or Christianity.
