If belief is a result of, not a prerequisite for, knowing, then nobody suggested your above proposal. On the other hand, is this what you're...
Sure thing... :rolleyes: You might want to save that witty line for somewhere, where repeating yourself requires more than a few mouse clicks....
With regards to the existence of God. "I don't know" (Agnostic), is as much a statement of certainty, as "I know" (Gnostic). It's the "I think I...
:agree: 1. Voting... Roman Catholic Church leaders, in the 4th century, apparently needed to vote on what was, and wasn't, inspired by God. What...
Don't think he said that. I think he said it's not a prerequisite. e.g. I don't believe 2+2=4 before I learn that 2+2=4. I believe 2+2=4 after I...
:rolleyes: You might want to save that witty line for somewhere, where repeating yourself requires more than a few mouse clicks. Peace
Just some things for you to consider... 1. Grace being the only way to heaven, was decided upon by the Roman Catholic Church, in the 5th...
John 5:7 is a proven fabrication. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comma_Johanneum Protons, neutrons, and electrons, have different powers (charges,...
LOL. You have shown absolutely no necessity for the qualifier "Agnostic" to be used with the word Theism. If there's no necessity, then it's...

Hehe, I don't think I'm the one that's confused. Right. You have to add qualifiers. Without them, "knowledge obviously isn't just mere belief"....
[/size][/font][/size][/font] Go ahead and substitute "Preach Intolerance", as Behavior X. Tolerance is about accepting someone's rights. They...
Intolerance: The unwillingness to accept the legitimacy of another person, group, or idea that differs from one's own. It may result in an effort...
Basically, the same thing I was saying. If "knowledge" is "justified true belief", then "belief" alone, isn't "knowledge". Merely believing...
Exactly. Belief, by itself, indicates a lack of full knowledge. Peace
"it is wrong for a man to say that he is certain of the objective truth of any proposition unless he can produce evidence which logically...
They did so. Huxley was looking for a level of evidence that no sane man could deny. The other quote was to emphasize that he did not consider...
Any statement of belief carries a burden of proof. Stating you don't believe a person's testimony is different than stating you believe a person's...
Well, he actually clarified that, too. "The justification of the Agnostic principle lies in the success which follows upon its application,...
Huxley directed Agnosticism at the formation of belief process. "That which Agnostics deny and repudiate, as immoral, is the contrary doctrine,...
