But what? cbayer May 2012 #1

Please do not go there. I beg you. longship May 2012 #2

I agree, but felt the need to contest what the OP was implying. cbayer May 2012 #3

I agree with you on NDT longship May 2012 #4

I was wrong for that. It's a touchy point for me. cbayer May 2012 #5

Do you identify as agnostic? laconicsax May 2012 #9

It is obvious even to the casual observer... rexcat May 2012 #6

He is what he says he is. cbayer May 2012 #7

He can call himself whatever he wants and I'll respect his self labeling Goblinmonger May 2012 #8

You seem to object to a lot of things... rexcat May 2012 #10

Annoying but typical. Ouch, lol! cbayer May 2012 #11

He can call himself anything he wants... rexcat May 2012 #12

I participate here... rexcat May 2012 #16

You brought him up and even speculated as to why he didn't want to post it himself. cbayer May 2012 #21

For one thing... rexcat May 2012 #29

Who said anything about goblinmonger? cbayer May 2012 #30

Seriously, meta is the place for the discussion of the blocking decision. Goblinmonger May 2012 #31

BTW, the only PM I have ever sent you was the following (in response to one you sent me) cbayer May 2012 #33

My point was your decision was chickenshit but not you personally... rexcat May 2012 #37

No, I go into protected forums to defend myself or other members of this group. cbayer May 2012 #39

When I search for that phrase, only your post comes up. Goblinmonger May 2012 #17

Here you go. cordelia May 2012 #18

Huh Goblinmonger May 2012 #19

That is interesting. laconicsax May 2012 #20

He is Agnostic for the same reason I am. Gore1FL May 2012 #22

Can you state that in a more grammatically correct form? edcantor May 2012 #23

You want to attack grammar? Really? Gore1FL May 2012 #38

I don't think you are using that word correctly. cleanhippie May 2012 #24

I am using it according to Webster. n/t Gore1FL May 2012 #35

Webster has Gnosticism defined as evidence? cleanhippie May 2012 #46

I've had this discussion several times already on this subthread. Gore1FL May 2012 #47

I did, and nowhere do you recant what you just told me, that Websters includes evidence as part cleanhippie May 2012 #48

My basic point was that ultimately, I don't know the answer. (Which is also Tyson's.) Gore1FL May 2012 #49

But are you an agnostic atheist or an agnostic theist? Goblinmonger May 2012 #25

Of course it is not linear. Gore1FL May 2012 #34

So you currently don't believe in a god? Goblinmonger May 2012 #36

So you are saying it is not linear, but it is 2 dimensional? Gore1FL May 2012 #40

I've been pretty clear about what I've been saying Goblinmonger May 2012 #41

Then I am on the atheist side of things. n/t Gore1FL May 2012 #42

I fully understand people not wanting the atheist label Goblinmonger May 2012 #43

You are misusing the term "Agnostic" Act_of_Reparation May 2012 #26

No I'm not Gore1FL May 2012 #32

Yes, you are. Act_of_Reparation May 2012 #44

I lean towards there not being a God.., Gore1FL May 2012 #45

I have no desire to label you whatsoever... Act_of_Reparation May 2012 #50

He explains it really well, which is not surprising. cbayer May 2012 #27

That's just not true. Goblinmonger May 2012 #28

That was splendid! JNelson6563 May 2012 #51
