Agnostics.

[Aeson]

From Dictionary.com - agnostic

ag·nos·tic Pronunciation Key (g-nstk)
n.

1. One who believes that it is impossible to know whether there is a God.
2. One who is skeptical about the existence of God but does not profess true atheism.
3. One who is doubtful or noncommittal about something.

If I were to decide that it was it was impossible to know whether there is a God or not, wouldn't that be a valid reason (personally) to discontinue research on the subject?

And isn't that decision an opinion as well?

I think definition #3 is what Sloww is getting at.

[Aeson]

Yes, but he didn't qualify his statements about agnostics. He lumped them all together. If he had said 'some' agnostics there wouldn't be any need for conversation on the subject. If he would like to qualify his statements now with 'some' then he could claim #3 was what he meant. Otherwise he's still calling all agnostics 'fence sitters', 'pansies', and whatever other terms he's used.

[Caligastia]

true

[SlowwHand]

3 is closest to my complaint I guess.
If you research and still say you can't decide, you really have decided.
Again, I personally don't care if one is a Believer or not. I'm just not that nice a guy, quite honestly.

[Aeson]

And honestly, #3 describes me best, though if I wasn't such a 3 I'd be a 1. Or maybe I just apply the basic theory behind 1 towards 1... if that makes any sense

I enjoy my view from the fence!

I did decide. I decided not to go on belief so I am Agnostic.

[SlowwHand]

What agnostics fail to recognize, is that being on the fence isn't really being on the fence at all. It's a decision in the negative, they just don't have the balls to accept it.

[Aeson]

And from the opposite viewpoint, those who need to narrowly define their existance do so out of fear of change. (ie. lack of balls)

I am not on any fence. You are a believer. I am not.

You don't have the cajones to admit you are just another believer.

Aeson...

[Aeson]

The tinting of the skin is a little off... I'm more of a light tan/yellow... with a dream of someday gaining a nice healthy orange glow

The hair is completely wrong, and no glasses needed

But yes, the pose is very close, especially after the last 10 hours of reading through D3D source files (the posting on Apolyton is refreshing though!)

[SlowwHand]

That was me, tired. You're wearing me out.

[Aeson]

At least I stopped asking questions.... right?

[SlowwHand]

True.
