Frank, we will never agree on this one point. On most other topics, we are in agreement, though. Dys tells me you are a pretty good boy. That counts for a lot.

It's Frank's absolute certainty of his uncertainty that worries me the most. Wink

Frank, just like my brother, is agnostic.
I, just like my other brother, am atheist.
I'm not worried about any of us.
The universe is bigger than all of us and that's ok with me.

It is my life mission to crush the agnostics. They are too different from us. Their philosophy leads to killer monkeys, reyns threads about nude balls and Coca Cola. Do not go in the water.

You can recognize that the agnostic position blows the atheistic position out of the water...and concede that the agnostic position is superior to the atheistic position in just about every respect.

That would be the ethical thing to do.

Sheez, Frank. You make it sound so simple. If I accepted your version of logic and ethics, the sky might fill with flying monkeys and hordes of leprechauns.

I'm agnostic about philosophical possibilities (anything is possible).

But I'm athiest about naturalistic probabilities (some things are so improbable they aren't worth wasting time considering).

Frank seems to be saying that "anything is possible", while others seem to be saying "yeh, but that still doesn't mean there's a tea cup orbiting pluto".

One position seems to be philosophical. The other seems to be naturalistic. If so, they could both be correct from within their own framework.
