Agnostic and Atheist?

Started by Phoenix20017 pages

I am a devoted Agnostic. I don't choose to be an Agnostic to make things easier for me but rather I choose to be an Agnostic so that I can draw my own conclusions.

I assume that most of you at one time have heard a quote that goes something like, "Read not to believe or disagree but to weigh and consider." To be an agnostic is to accept knowledge as it comes. It is the most logical way of life because none of us can ever be truthfully certain about "Truth."

It doesn't matter what any of us believe. Our beliefs do not change the truth of reality.

You should read the Lotus sutra.

Of the Sutras...I think the Kama Sutra is the best.

😆 That is NOT one of the Sutras of Buddha.

Have you read it? It tells about how to prevent orgasms and a lot of other really strange stuff, but it does show really good positions.

Yeah, there was a thread about that.........I learned quite a lot... ✅ 😮

Yeah, but some of that stuff requires double jointedness. Ack.

Ha ha, the Lotus sutra has nothing to do with sex. If you are truly open minded, you might learn something.

That's just the thing. None of us are truly anything.

Speak for yourself. 😛

I am truly a mechanical designer, I am truly a songwriter and I am truly a Buddhist. 😄

Then your statement, too, is false, in which case, everything is true, including your statement. But then, if nothing is true, your statement, too, is false, in which case, everything is true, including your statement. But then...

Man that hurts my head...

If nothing is true then how can you have truth? Nothing is nothing. Truth is something.

How do you know that truth is anything at all?
