[QUOTE="foxhound_fox"][QUOTE="gameguy6700"]Agnosticism is a subset of atheism. Either way, the distinction doesn't matter here. The fact remains that Darwin never reaffirmed his belief in God nor did he ever renounce his theory of evolution. CptJSparrow
You did not just go there... did you?
Agnosticism is completely different from Atheism.
Agnosticism: "Agnostics claim either that it is not possible to have absolute or certain knowledge of the existence or nonexistence of God or gods; or, alternatively, that while individual certainty may be possible, they personally have no knowledge."
Atheism: "Atheism, as a philosophical view, is the position that either affirms the nonexistence of gods or rejects theism. When defined more broadly, atheism is the absence of belief in deities."
Agnosticism is a position of "not knowing." Atheism is a position of "knowing." No, atheism is believing, ergo agnosticism can be applicable to atheism, theism, deism, and all other religious categories.
Agnogsticism is it's impossible to know if God exists, right? So thats true. If God comes before us, if his existance is absolutely 100% proven, then it's not religion anymore, it's science.
