The optimistic part of me says Agnostic because I'm absolutely terrified of the prospect of complete void after death, but the pessimistic part of me says Atheist. So either or really.

He's a well respected scientist actually, there is no law that states religion and science have to be poles apart.

Whatever about his scientific knowledge but the man's still an idiot. Especially after what he said about Down Syndrome.

It's my opinion that you are a turtle that lives on neptune. but because I have nothing to back up that opinion I don't go spouting off at the mouth about it. So stop talking sheet.

i don't understand this. You've heard how horrible god is. he's homophobic and misogysnistic, and he makes people worship him, and if you don't worship him well enough he punishes them.

would you really want to spend an eternity with a god like that?>

I don't believe in god.

but even if i did think god is real i wouldn't want to live in his kingdom. god sounds like a dick. spending eternity worshiping him doesn't appeal to me at all.

I would prefer oblivion to having to worship an evil piece of **** like God for all eternity.

Indeed but Richard is an emeritus fellow of New College, Oxford, and was the University of Oxford's Professor for Public Understanding of Science.

He is also a best selling author


How are your credentials?

I think it's a tad ironic how you of all people are telling someone to stop chatting sh*t.

If you want to be pedantic about and split hairs over language use that's up to you but I think it's pretty clear that I wasn't calling him an idiot in the academic sense so whatever university he graduated from doesn't change my opinion one bit. He's a fool then, 'a person who acts unwisely or imprudently'. I think that's a pretty accurate description for him and whether you agree or not that's just my personal view.

Agnostic means that you believe it can't truly be proved or disproved as to whether God(s) exists. That nothing can be known of the nature of a divine being's potential existence beyond anything material. In essence, it's not claiming or rejecting the idea of God but simply claiming that we don't know either way.

I prefer that line of thinking to atheism. Atheism is a little harsh for my tastes.

I think alot of agnostic people when they say they think there might be "something", doesn't necessarily mean they think it might be the God/Gods put forward to us by religions. For me *if* there is some sort of higher power that was responsible in some way for our existence, I don't think it was in a way where we were created in their image or are being watched over or anything, I don't think we're that significant in the grand scheme of things

If you are agnostic about gods then you have to be agnostic about aliens and hobgoblins

Yeah, actually I reckon there's a better chance of aliens than of Gods tbh

Hobgoblins I actually have proof of
