Wow..this is a first for me. The first agnostic Muslim I have ever met.
I understand NOT believing in something if you say you dont know. But how do you reconcile BELIEVING you something you say you do not know?
Do you know how the universe came into existence? 100% of the way, you know how it happened? No, I don't think so.. Yet you obviously believe it did come into existence, yes? So there is you believing in something that you don't know about. Or maybe you believe that the universe always was and always will be... but then if you do, isn't it then more likely that there is a being behind the creation that always was and always will be, and quite less likely that one giant inanimate universe with no decision making capabilities always has been and always will be? And then since it is more likely that there is someone behind it, wouldn't that mean that this is an all powerful being? Capable of creating such a majestic and ever expanding place? A being with a mind beyond what our small minds can comprehend? I believe that person is God. What about you?
