Fuck Yeah Agnosticism
A blog about agnosticism in the context of philosophy of religion.
An agnostic is a person who argues that people do not and perhaps cannot have knowledge of whether or not a supreme being exists.
An agnostic can be atheist-leaning, theist-leaning or neither.

Post reblogged from The Atheist That Hates
So I don’t plan on turning this into a daily thing by any means but I thought of another good question I’d like to ask my followers today. Perhaps this one is relevant to more people on my list then the last. It is directed to people that recognize themselves as being “agnostic”. To avoid any confusion on definitions I am referring to people that have taken the stance that they do not know or believe, one way or the other, on God’s existence. If you are an Agnostic, what would it take for you to become an Atheist? Obviously the question of if God exists or not does have a definite answer. So what would need to be different for you to become an Atheist? I am not looking to proselytize anyone but am very curious as to what may be holding back someone from making a decision. Anyways, feel free to leave answers in a reply of send me a message if you’d like. As always thanks for reading.
I’m reblogging this here, in case anyone here wants to respond with what would be necessary for them to self-describe as atheist. I’m uncertain if the question applies to people who self-describe as agnostic and as atheist, but I suppose for atheist agnostics and agnostic atheists it can be interpreted as “What would be necessary for you to drop the agnostic descriptor and self-describe only as atheist?”
My own (non-fence-sitting, rather logical-positivisty) response is at my personal tumblr if anyone is interested in that.

I’m with cortneyjoe on this one. Someone referred to agnostics as “atheists without balls”…haha. I always kind of thought of it like that.

I’m atheist, I never understood agnostics. I believe in what can be backed by facts, if it was proven god existed then I’d believe it. I believe agnostics is just a way of saying “I don’t believe but I really don’t want to argue about it with you”
