But I've always thought that attaching percent estimates of certainty to god belief was wrong headed. My agnosticism has nothing to do with relative likelihood and everything to do with interpretation. Something ill defined isn't entitled to a shred of consideration.
But if something is not entitled to a shred of consideration, is that not dismissing it 100%? Sounds like gnosticism to me...
