Agnostic Avowal

"We cannot know with certainty if God or Christ exist. They could. Then again there could be a giant reptilian bird in charge of everything. Can we be certain there isn't? No, so it's pointless to talk about."
"I just started following the Agnostic Avowal."

Agnosticism

The only true sign of intelligence you will encounter from another human being.

A theist, or believer in God, will tell you that he ABSOLUTELY exists. An atheist (non-believer) will say he ABSOLUTELY doesn't.

Well, the last time I checked, it's been like 2000 years since God was reported to have talked to anybody, making it pretty difficult to prove. Besides which, all religion is predicated on faith (See also: Not supposed to be proven).

Prove he doesn't exist? Possibly the only thing harder to do. Besides the enormity of the task, there's the fact that anyone who ever took a logic class knows and that is that you can't prove a negative. You can only prove (sometimes) that something hasn't happened YET. It may still the next time.

So... you have a theist, an atheist and an agnostic... None of them really knows the truth about the nature of existence.

But only the agnostic is smart enough to admit it.
Agnosticism says: I don't know if there's a God or not... and neither do you.

Sleep tight.

Agnos

"I'm an Agnostic; I worship Agnos". A jokey slang which really means "I don't worship any person. I live my life based on PROVABLE reality. Yes, this or that might hypothetically be true. I can't prove that Santa Claus does NOT exist. But, on the other hand, I can't prove that Santa Claus DOES exist, so why should I BELIEVE in him? Should I let my life be ruled by something that is NOT proven to exist? NO! Thank you for listening, and YOU may live however YOU want to (as long as you don't hurt others). Peace, Love & Freedom my friend.

agnostic theism

Agnostic theism is defined as believing in the existence of a god, but not claiming to know for sure that this god definitely exists.
I wouldn't suggest paying attention to the other much more vulgar definition about agnostic theism

agnosticism

belief that one is unable to tell if god exists or does not exist. the refusal to decide while one is still living. not to be confused with atheism.
I don't know if god exists, and I can't know until I'm dead so don't bother me about it now.
