1. a person who holds that the existence of the ultimate cause, as God, and the essential nature of things are unknown and unknowable, or that human knowledge is limited to experience.
4. asserting the uncertainty of all claims to knowledge.
Definitively, I'm an agnostic. Since I'm neither convinced by A-Priori or synthetic metaphysical arguments for the existence of God, nor by the evidence educed from the physical world around us, nor by the claims made by various positive religions -- I cannot affirm the proposition, "There Is A God." This in no way implies an affirmation of the proposition, "There is no God." The means of verification seem to be unavailable to the human mind for either proposition. Therefore, I stand in a state of suspended judgement on the matter.

An agnostic is like a man who cannot choose between getting on the lifeboat or staying on the sinking ship, and so perishes in the flood! Agnosticism is in bad taste--- like using the wrong fork at a formal dinner party; or urinating out of doors in public places. No, it is definitely not "cool." (Forgive my use of a vulgar idiom.)
You need to take a stand. Post those atheistical theses on the Cathedral in Wittenberg and get on with it! Freemasonry calling!
