       How did you find that out? It sounds like you skipped agnosticism and went   
   straight to strong atheism. I tried that myself for about six months and   
   finally   
   realised it's a stupid position, so I became a weak agnostic. According to what   
   you wrote you aren't even a strong agnostic or weak atheist, but are a strong   
   atheist.

       I encourage you to try being an agnostic, but the supposed agnostics and   
   the   
   atheists in these ngs will encourage you to be a strong atheist which you   
   currently appear to be. I've added some groups to your thread in the hopes that   
   you will eventually get some worthwhile input, but don't count on it. Pretty   
   much all you get from the atheists and most supposed agnostics around here is   
   no. So if you close your eyes, put your fingers in your ears and repeat: no,   
   no,   
   no, no, no, no, no, no, no.... it will be about the same value as any reply you   
   will get from such people. You don't even have to ask them what they think,   
   because all they're capable of thinking is no, no, no, no, no.....   
      
       Oh and btw if you ever do get on the agnostic track and suggest considering   
   the possibility that there is a God associated with this planet to any of   
   "them"   
   you will almost certainly experience them demanding that you provide "evidence"   
   of God's existence. But! They not only aren't really trying to get you to   
   provide evidence, but they will deny any and ALL evidence that you tell them   
   about, while...LOL....continuing to demand "evidence". They reject every bit of   
   evidence for God's existence that there has ever been or ever will be. Even if   
   all or some of the accounts of Jesus in the Bible are actually true "they" will   
   still deny them as being evidence. Even more pathetically amusing than all that   
   is the now proven FACT that though they demand "evidence" when what they really   
   mean is proof, not a one of them has any idea at all WHAT sort of proof they   
   think there should be, WHERE they think it should be, WHY they think it should   
   be available to humans, or WHEN they think it should be or should have been   
   made   
   available if God really does exist. You may find as I do that though they are   
   shallow and pathetic people at "best", just describing the positions they're in   
   is often HILARIOUS!!! So have fun :-)
