I would somewhat be an agnostic because I don't care about the universe's creation or any god(s) unless they link to something useful for humans. As I have explained before, we have no such leads to finding any god(s) unless this supposed god(s) decides to reveal itself/themselves. However, I don't jump to the conclusion that we won't ever find any god or that they don't exist. I simply think that it would be more meaningful to find a way to live for ever and not worry about what happens as far as death goes. Living for ever would pretty much eliminate any reason for a person to wonder why something is the way it is because you could just sit around and do nothing for all of eternity. Also, if finding god(s) were to be possible, I would to think that humans would have to find a way to be immortal in order to find any god while we are still considered alive on Earth. Of course even though my goal is for humans to eventually live for ever, that doesn't mean it's possible,but it hasn't been proven to be impossible either. I would say that people pray to god(s) to hope that they can have strenght to live properly, not die, to honor those who have died, etc. However, I don't value religion too much because it is so time consuming and would a human be weak if all they did was pray to a higher being for help? Would god(s) even respond to such prayers if they existed? I don't think that humans need too much assistance from any god unless all they do is sit in a church and arrogantly go along with what they say to be 100% true. Perhaps prayers can do something and god(s) do exist, but if there were god(s) that mankind would truely consider righteous, would god(s) require us to stay in a church and be their servant? Would a god of any decency have its followers bomb the World Trade Centers on 9/11? I would to think not and if that is the type of god that humanity prays for, I would hope that someone or something could kill that god or stay away from it for ever if it would exist.
Edit: I suppose that by Hollus' definition, I am a weak agnostic person for the time being. Last edited by Master_of_the_Faster; 06-6-2007 at 09:06 PM.. |
