Agnosticism The best quote to sum up what it means to be an Agnostic and/or an Atheist was spoken by Richard Dawkins "I believe that an orderly universe, one indifferent to human preoccupations, in which everything has an explanation even if we still have a long way to go before we find it, is a more beautiful, more wonderful place than a universe tricked out with capricious ad hoc magic." -Richard Dawkins- This is the one and only time you will hear me rant and rave on the topic of religion. I'm laying out my personal beliefs and the belief system of an agnostic, with a small infusion of Catholism as well. This topic is NOT open for debate, and I have allowed comments for the time being. Please Please Please if you are going to comment, comment on what I actaully say, and do not become negative towards me. To be agnostic is to respect all possibilities, and I respect all religions in that sense, please show me the same respect in return. Simply Put: IF YOU DON'T HAVE ANYTHING CONSTRUCTIVE OR NICE TO SAY, THEN SHUT THE FUCK UP!

Agnosticism Is agnosticism a viable philsophical position? Is it even possible to be 'undecided' on the existence of god? I assert that agnosticism is actually a form of atheism. Moreover, the commonly-used definition is misunderstood today, allowing people to escape to a 'middle-ground' that doesn't really exist. Feel free to comment away!

Agnosticism- The Atheist Experience This video is to inform people of how agnosticism and atheism actually are responses to two different questions. Agnosticism deals with knowledge and atheism deals with belief. A person can be an agnostic atheist or an agnostic theist. This video is also there to let anyone who claims to be a gnostic atheist or agnostic atheist know that they are not alone in their lack of belief in a personal god (not necessarily the belief that there is no god). I have become a huge fan of The Atheist Experience podcast and of The Non-Prophets podcast. I've learned much from the hosts, most notably, Matt Dillahunty. The audio is of Tracie Harris and Matt Dillahunty of The Atheist Experience discussing how agnosticism and atheism relate. Excellent definitions of atheism can be found at Infidels.org and at the Rational Responders' site. The list of atheists comes, predominately, from Wikipedia's list of atheists (extensively notated). The idea for the video came from zakiechan's post a few years ago that listed a number of atheists. Thanks and enjoy.

Re: On agnosticism and intelligent design Responding to a message I received about DNA, language, and sentience. Original message, from YT user Xechorizo: Hello there! I really enjoy your arguments against strong atheism, as they prove logically the agnostic stance while dismissing the popular concept of fence-sitting and decisive standstill in everyday life, yet reinforcing the correct morsels of atheism that reinforce our idea. However, I came across an idea online recently when looking for more fun brain teasers regarding DNA. It states that since DNA follows a certain code (or language) pattern, that it conforms to the definition of a design and, that since information and design must come from will and intent, that it proves the existence of a higher being behind the curtain. I know you may very well be no biologist, but you have an uncanny knack for definitions, as well as laymen analogies that provide an accurate depiction of whatever it is that might get us closer to an objective reality. I've heard some counter arguments on this "DNA is a language" theory but most are over my head and involve defining DNA as a cipher rather than a code or organized language. Would you be able to shed any light on this particular argument for me, in either video or text? Once again I deeply respect your standpoints as they have shown me the logical flaws in my arguments against theism, while also providing me an excellent reassurance against the beckoning atheists with just as outrageous of claims. Thanks for your time!

Agnosticism, Theism, and Atheism Tried uploading this once before, but a minute and a half of it were missing (grr). So I try again. This is a response to UTNow's video "More Like Roflthiesm {sic} to Me". Hopefully it is enlightening. I forgot to mention fattychunks in the video. He applied a video he'd already made as a response to this, but I felt I could make it all fit a bit more specifically. Credit goes to him because his copy is obviously in much better shape than mine, in spite of likelihood that his is better read.

Agnosticism, the logical conclusion? This is a reply to the video "More like roflthiesm [sic] to Me" by UTNow. One of the better videos I have seen on YouTube, this one actually challenged my beliefs, and I really had to respond to it. I hope you'll enjoy watching. Addendum: Please note, that I am not trying to refute agnosticism as a logic position as such, I am responding to the specific claim that atheism is AS ILLOGICAL as fundamentalist religion.

Refuting Theist Arguments - Why Agnosticism is flawed Refuting Theist Arguments -- Why Agnosticism is flawed [An addition to: Refuting Theist Arguments - Negative Proof] Often times, after informing a theist of their negative proof fallacy, they will proceed to say something similar to: "if you cannot logically prove a negative then why do you adhere to the belief in the non-existence of a God?" Sometimes they will also say something to the affect of: "Your denial of God and rebellion against him is transparent." They are essentially asking why I am an atheist and not an agnostic. The question is valid, and, as such, deserves an answer. The statement that followed the question is an absurd assertion, as I will show. My response would be as follows: Ask the theist if they believe in: Vishnu, Santa Clause, Kali, Set, Anubis, Jeebo, Jengu, Tyr, Thor, Zeus, Anansi, Allah, Yahweh, Dilga, Cinteotl, Zeme, Ogma, Jade Emperor, Gao Yao, Loki, Osiris, Shiva, Apo, Jumis, Chaac, Nabu, Tabaldak, Sedna, Whope, Heimdall, Tala, Lono, Rongo, Zempat, Vulcan, Dagon, Tiamat, Tengu, Belobog, Utu, Yellow Invisible Dogs, Magical Pixies, Invisible Pink Elephants, Tooth Fairies, Pod People, Big Foot, Wizards, Witches, Flying Cows, Sentient Hog Dogs, Intelligent Silverware, Loch Ness Monsters, Aliens (all sorts), Mermaids, Bahamut, Genies, Ghosts, Imps, Incubus, Succubus, Living Mummies, Nymphs, Ogres, Pegasus, Unicorns, Rocs, Satyrs, Undead creatures, Vampires, Zombies, Lycanthropes, Wraiths, Wyverns, ETC, ETC, ETC, ETC... This list could go on, literally, forever... There are an infinite number of beings and creatures that one cannot prove are non-existent. There is also an equal amount of evidence for the existence of each of these creatures (that is to say, there is no evidence for any of them). The theist cannot disprove the existence of any of these, so by their logic, they must believe in them all (even though the teachings of some of these religions contradict others). If they do not believe in Santa, invisible pod people, etc. then they are being inconsistent and illogical in their belief system. If they 'deny' the pod people, then, by their own logic, they are rebelling against the pod people. Clearly, believing in something because it cannot be proven to not exist is absurd and cannot be done with logical consistency. It is also clearly absurd to try to say that someone is 'denying' the existence of a being for which there is no evidence. How can you deny that which does not exist? Now to address the circumstantial evidence against the existence of all of the aforementioned beings. When it comes to any religion, when we examine the doctrines of that religion's 'holy texts' and teachings we find evidence that would indicate that the texts were created by humans. This evidence includes, but is not limited to: -The fact that all ancient holy texts are filled with little or no scientific fact (and often contain false statements) -The fact that all religions' gods behave as if they are an ego projection of ancient man -The fact that all 'holy texts' are riddled with internal contradictions -The fact that the 'laws' or 'rules' prescribed by a religion's deity (1) reflect the times that the book was written and (2) are designed to protect the interests of the 'chosen group' As you can see, the circumstantial evidence suggests that all of the aforementioned beings were made up by human beings. Since the evidence suggests that these beings are of human construction, it is simply not reasonable to believe in any or all of them. Unless someone can provide proof that any of these things exists; it is simply not logical to believe in them. Unless theists can prove the existence of one of these things (i.e. their deity or deities); it is logical to assume that these things were made up by people. The circumstantial evidence against the existence of any deity (or other mythical or supernatural creatures) is the primary reason why agnosticism is flawed. The only difference between a mainstream deity and the tooth-fairy is the number of devoted followers; and, as we all know, majority belief does not make fact (just look at the percentage of Americans who believe in creationism).

Why I Choose Atheism Over Agnosticism This presentation gives my reasons for being an explicit atheist - someone who denies the existence of any god or gods and who asserts this denial with certainty - rather than an agnostic - someone who claims that he does not know whether any god exists.

Agnosticism theism atheism gnosticism NB: Gnosis is pronounced "noh-sis". The 'g' is silent in gnostic, but not in agnostic. - Thanks to clutchology for that info'. = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = There are many dictionary definitions of the words agnostic, theist, atheist and gnostic. In this video I attempt to present a cogent set of definitions and explanations. Two short and very relevant examples of the word "atheist" from the atheist and theist view points with an interesting explanation as to why the two positions can hold differing opinions of the words' meaning. http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/atheist A very thorough definition and explanation of atheism: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atheist I have not mentioned Deism or Pantheism as I see them as subsets of theism and I seldom meet people who claim to be either. I am an explicit atheist, I am also agnostic though I consider the term redundant in this context as I am as agnostic of gods' existence as I am of the existence of ghosts, gnomes and other supernatural subjects. I suspect that gnosticism is becoming an increasingly viable position as our knowledge of the natural world continues to improve, though it will always be handicapped whilst there is only the vaguest definition of what a god is. We cannot attempt to claim knowledge of something we know exactly what it is we are supposed to be believing in? - All references to god that I have heard use attributes not specific descriptions; this makes knowledge very difficult.
