RE: belief
that is exactly what a religious person would say, you are a hypocrite my friend, might want to work on that.

one valid answer would be this right here;

"I do not presently know" - middle ground, for peace, what do you stand for?

Actually, neither me nor the religious would be a hypocrite here, because neither is willing to compromise what they regard as truth.

That's a non-answer. An evasion and refusal to make up your mind simply for sake of avoiding confrontation. What I stand for is truth.

"i do not believe gods exist, but can't prove it"

the word believe in this context is synonymous with conclusion and the words 'can't prove it' just means without experimental means.

hypothesis: oranges are (not) real

experiment: dont' got one

conclusion: oranges are (not) real

atheism = theism = jumping to conclusions = dogmatism

agnostic is to admit that you and I do not know, intelligence.

Now you're just spamming.
Skepticism is not a position; it is an approach to claims.
Science is not a subject, but a method.

There is so much fail here it would be pointless to address any of it.

RE: belief
pointless to address what? that you don't know? or would it be difficult because you believe that you are right?

Which simply means that you have made up your mind not to know anything about it.

RE: belief
If this is who some of us think it is, everyone is wasting their breath. Starts multiple thread about the same thing...check. Refuses to answer questions in any meaningful way...check. When asked why questions aren't responded to moves on and starts another similar post...check.

Response is a waste of time, though he did pick a picture for this avatar that doesn't make him look like a mental patient a la 'One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest'.
