Listen tavares... I know very well what claims I'm making. I'm sorta posing and answering questions rather than making any claims - it's not why I'm here.
I make no positive claim that God exists. that would be irrational of a transcendental entity - God just is ...and I believe he just is.
What evidence have you that most Christians are not agnostic? I know very many Christians and used to work at a very popular annual Christian Festival in the UK frequented by about 60k of them. I've been an active member of 2 large churches and active interdenominationally. I've never met a Christian who claimed to know for sure that God existed. Like I've said, and you seem to gloss over... such a stance would be illogical.
Churches take the assurance of faith and 'claim' certainty. This is simply lingo which to any intelligent bystander isn't actually anyone saying anything beyond doubt. As Adrian covered on his blog, certainty isn't knowledge.
I believe, not claim, that God 'is'. I believe through faith. At the point of faith, there _has to be_ no knowledge.. for there to be any would indeed be illogical.
