Agnostics are not Atheists and they deserve their own forum.

(Wiki)

David Berlinski (born 1942) is an American educator and author of several books on mathematics. Berlinski is a Senior Fellow of the Discovery Institute's Center for Science and Culture, the hub of the intelligent design movement. A critic of the theory of evolution, Berlinski is an agnostic and refuses to theorize about the origins of life. He has also written on philosophy and a variety of fictional works.

A 2008 Slate magazine profile by Daniel Engber characterized Berlinski as "a critic, a contrarian, and — by his own admission — a crank [...and] zealous skeptic, more concerned with false gods than real ones."[12] In that same article Berlinski said he "got fired from almost every job [he] ever had" before finding a career as a writer as a "maverick intellectual." Engber characterized Berlinski's viewpoints as:

Berlinski's radical and often wrong-headed skepticism represents an ascendant style in the popular debate over American science: Like the recent crop of global-warming skeptics, AIDS denialists, and biotech activists, Berlinski uses doubt as a weapon against the academy—he's more concerned with what we don't know than what we do. He uses uncertainty to challenge the scientific consensus; he points to the evidence that isn't there and seeks out the things that can't be proved. In its extreme and ideological form, this contrarian approach to science can turn into a form of paranoia—a state of permanent suspicion and outrage. But Berlinski is hardly a victim of the style. He's merely its most methodical practitioner."[12]
