Wherever he is, I want to know how to tell the difference between him and nothing. If he's right here next to me, he may as well not be.
Not exactly weird IMO. After all we are just humans and our "knowledge" is limited by our subjective understanding and discernment. Believers are no different than anyone else so I'm never surprised to hear diverse thoughts on God. There are some very basic tenets of agreement, but when delving in to deeper, more complex details, it's impossible to know for sure. Some may still say with certainty they are right and attempt to back it up, but it's really conjecture.
We are not made happy by what we acquire but by what we appreciate.
