What Is an agnostic?
An agnostic thinks it impossible to know the truth in matters such as God and the future life with which Christianity and other religions are concerned. Or, if not impossible, at least impossible at the present time.
Are agnostics atheists?
No. An atheist, like a Christian, holds that we can know whether or not there is a God. The Christian holds that we can know there is a God; the atheist, that we can know there is not. The Agnostic suspends judgment, saying that there are not sufficient grounds either for affirmation or for denial. At the same time, an Agnostic may hold that the existence of God, though not impossible, is very improbable; he may even hold it so improbable that it is not worth considering in practice. In that case, he is not far removed from atheism. His attitude may be that which a careful philosopher would have towards the gods of ancient Greece. If I were asked to prove that Zeus and Poseidon and Hera and the rest of the Olympians do not exist, I should be at a loss to find conclusive arguments. An Agnostic may think the Christian God as improbable as the Olympians; in that case, he is, for practical purposes, at one with the atheists.
You can forget about using logic and intelligence bro...
DLR'sCock is I guess, Agnostic, but prefers the term, "Student of Life", and is open to whatever the "Truth" truly is, if it is ever revealed or not, then one will know or not....I know nothing, but I am openminded and skeptical at the same time....
Life moves forward, or does it??Comment

Then why don't you take that openmindedness and skepticism to a church that actually teaches the Bible and then try to form an opinion ??Originally posted by DLR'sCock

Whether oyu belive in the Bible, I think we can all agree that there IS in fact a time to take up arms.
However, the REAL question is, "was this that time"?
The answer is, in fact, yes. This was a time for America to take military action. America had a RESPONSIBILITY to go to war in the mid-east. It was NECESSARY to go into an Arab nation and demand justice.
However, unfortunately, we got the mid-east country wrong. We were supposed to be in Afghanistan. Somehow we took a wrong turn at Pismo Beach and wound up in Iraq.
Go figure.
There's also a time for "gathering stones together", meaning to meditate on one's place, and be prepared to "cast" those stones, but be "centered" enough to thorw those stones in the right fucking direction.Comment

hey bud, I have been there, done that(btw my uncle was a priest, I say was because he is dead...)...and I also have taken the time to read up on other forms of religions and I have had quite a fewdiffering experiences with differing religions.......and I have had many many discussions about theology, god and religion, with many differing clergymen in my day from a whole wide array of backgrounds.....Originally posted by ELVIS
Then why don't you take that openmindedness and skepticism to a church that actually teaches the Bible and then try to form an opinion ??
I don't get my point of view from one single ray of sunshine...I try to take in the whole sun, if I can....but again, I am human, and cannot believe that it is possible for me to even have a glimpse ofthe truth....but it's there.....
In general theology is intruiging from a historical, anthropological,and societal viewpoint......is there a "GOD"????.....it would be nice, and if there is, then kool....
Religions do teach good things, but people fuck it up big time...Comment

Well, who do you take to be the greatest religious icon, then El-rod?
Desmond Tutu, the Pope, Jesus Christ, or the President?
(hint: only one supports this war...and he planned it well before 9/11!)Comment

BTW, I would be confused too if I had an uncle who was a priest...:DComment

The what about turning the other cheek?
The Old Testament (and the God of the Old Testament) is the one that's all about retribution, punishment, thunder, and vengeance.
Jesus was about passivism, brotherhood, redemption, and the wilingness to die for your beliefs and cause, but not to kill for them.
So, no, Jesus doesn't believe in war (as I understand Him). He doesComment
