Agnostics

[bennyboy]

In your example, the two are mutually contingent, by definition.  In my example, I'm lacking information which doesn't necessarily PROVE to anyone else that God is real, but represents the knowledge I personally would need to resolve a question about my belief.

 
So this is may be an example you like better:

• If you are taller than me then I believe you are heavier than me.  But if you're shorter than me then not.
  

In any case, your example is a conditional, but your claim is that you can simultanioiusly believe that something is both true and false.  That claim, even if true, is not supported by your example.

I'll have to go back and look at this again. I think you are wrong, but it's the second time you've mentioned it, so let me give you a promissory note for now.

If I asked you if you thought Schrodinger's cat was alive, how would you answer?

"No, of course not."

What if I asked you if you thought Schrodinger's cat was dead. How would you answer?
