       Or to be a little more pedantic about it, an agnostic would typically   
   assert that existence of a diety is both unknown and unknowable. There   
   are certainly limits to human knowledge. Religious worship rests on   
   faith, not knowledge. I'm sure there's a joke in there somewhere but for   
   the life of me, it's not coming.

       Skepticism is a good thing in general. It keeps one's perspective a   
   bit more reality based....
