Well worded and a good read, but I think the author spends to much time trying to equate atheism to a form of agnosticism. In particular I take issue with this:

Quote:
Here is a quote from Huxley that the author conveniently left out of the article: Quote:
It follows then that you cannot be an atheist because you are agnostic, as the two are quite mutually exclusive according to the quoted text above, which comes from the coiner of the term "agnostic". Last edited by radix; 05-02-2010 at 11:22 PM. |
