With respect Chatpilot,

If you knew what the term agnostic atheist implied (i.e. someone who is almost certain there is no god, but cannot prove it definetivley) You would see that you are, in actual fact arguing from an illogical position! Unless you have such definitive proof as to justify being a "Gnostic Atheist"

[Edit] - On checking quickly I can see that myself, EvF, Adrian and a number of other posters here all present our views as Agnostic Atheism ...

Thanks Sam.

What's-his-name just proved my point with another ad hominem attack and straw man.(my atheism is irrelevant to this discussion)

The difference between us seems to be not that I have a degree in anthropology (with a minor in history) from a good university* BUT that when I didn't understand what was being taught I could ask questions. THAT imo is often a big problem for autodidacts.Certainly seems to be the case for CP. I'm assuming he's self taught by from his hostility towards formal education.

I don't claim to be "right in any absolute sense. I have presented an educated opinion. CP has not, imo. I have nothing more to say to him on the matter as I don't suffer fools.--- I'm likely to say something unkind and get myself banned.
