    Dan, this is primarily for you after the TRUE Christian thread broke down (or got blocked), which happened after the discussion diverted into the parallel topics of TRUE agnosticism and TRUE atheism.

    This guy's communication skills are incredible.

    bump. this is a really excellent video. i would advice everyone to check out the videos of qualiasoup and theramintrees, if for no other reasons because they are extremely well presented.

    by the way, perhaps we should introduce a measure of a threads popularity, the milli-johnny? i believe this is barely pushing 10MJ's :-).

    Good video. As thought-provoking as PZ Myers' recent comments are to me personally, this video gets at the matter of definitions with much more clarity.

    I also like how the definition of agosticism is addressed - that it deals with knowledge of god (and god's existence), and is not some noncommittal middle ground.

    zoiks: "I also like how the definition of agosticism is addressed - that it deals with knowledge of god (and god's existence), and is not some noncommittal middle ground."

    Couldn't agree more. As far as the existence of god/s are concerned there is no such thing as agnosticism, it's not a middle ground because there is no middle ground to occupy.

    There is no such thing as Agnosticism. Agnostics do not exist!

    nick: heard! its so amazingly frustrating to hear over and over again that if your not 100% certain your agnostic. and no matter how many times its pointed out in painstaking details even the less sofisticated farm-animals would find tedious, its like 20 minutes pass and you get to here it once again:

    "atheism is a belief. agnosticism i can kind of understand, because they admit they cant know everything for sure"

    ARGGHHH!!! its damn hard to take people serious who believe in talking animals, but i try. but for the love of jesus and recognition of the effort, at least reason like a grown-up!.

    sorry, i should have added: as good and as clear this video is the ones who are in love with their beliefs will watch it and ignore it.
