Is Lack of Belief the Best You Can Do?
RE: Is Lack of Belief the Best You Can Do?
Chad, most people here gnosticaly reject the God of the Bible and probably every other human God claim. We do this because those specific claims make assertions which are easily falsified. We cannot reject all possible God claims though unless you define God in a way which is logically inconsistent with itself. I don't believe the word, "agnostic" applies to us because we don't reserve judgement when it comes to specific claims which can be falsified. At the same time though, we can't reject all possible claims of God as long as those claims do not violate the known laws of physics or are logically inconsistent.

If you don't want to call us, "atheists", what do you want to call us? I'm open to suggestions.

It sounds to me like you just want us to admit to being something we're not so as to more easily attack us. Sorry, Chad. We are what we are. If you want a new label for us, try to coin one yourself. I personally couldn't care less what you call me as long as you accurately represent what I am.
Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.
