Mostly I hope you learned that atheism is NOT a dogmatic position, but a provisional one.
I get that. Loud and clear. Not all atheists are 100% confident there is no intelligence to design and not all atheists are scientific fundamentalists.
I realize that the subjects of my posts may have been a bit more provocative than I intended them to be. It doesn't change the fact that I'm still interested in the answers to my questions.
To rephrase this thread in a way that I hope no one will take offense to (if anyone is willing to answer):
I'm interested to know your level of confidence (0-100%) with regard to these two statements:
1. There is no god ("sky daddy")
2. There is no intelligent design or influence to existence.
I'm particularly interested to know what (if anything) makes you question the possibility of either.
For me, I'm pretty much 100% confident there is no god as most religions describe it. I'm about 80% confident there is some intelligence to the way things are designed and operating.
