it's only ridiculous if you think about it in a certain way. I once thought atheism was ridiculous, but then I broke it down.
It literally means to be non-theistic. It means that I don't believe in a god. HOWEVER, it certainly does not imply that I believe there is no god.
I hope this makes sense :p

So he wrote a book on positivism 200 years after the other positivists.


He conveyed a beautiful message in a beautiful way. I believe many people could benefit from reading it.
Whether or not somebody else had these ideas before him, they can also be his ideas and he can express them beautifully.
Much more impressive than Carl Sagan's ideas was his ability to represent them in a clear and interesting way. I hope the be more like him every day.

i think if you believe there is not enough evidence one way you would have to say there is not enough the other
it doesnt make sense to me how someone could completely accept it one way or another

but doesnt it mean a (=no) theos (=god) - seems like a an absolute statement to me :P
we all are asantaclausians but i think there's atleast some (fairly decent) probabilities of god(s)
for me agnosticism is the right word becaus (gnosticism =knowledge)
personally i dont know so i can only guess etc :)
