Agnosticism. We hear it a lot, especially these days because of extreme diversity. Some people simply do not see the point in believing an ultimatum that holds no possibility of being proven.
The basic definition of agnosticism is the belief that the origins of our reality is unknown and likely unknowable, despite scientific or creationist views. Not all agnostics venture on the educated aspects of it, but it doesn't discount them nonetheless. Whether you know the specific details or not, it all points toward the same aim and voids gnostic teaching.
Technically speaking, anyways.
I feel that if one deems themselves agnostic, they should educate themselves on the rationale behind it. It doesn't do good to be anything without the knowledge basing them.
Which is why I have made this thread- to breakdown it's fundamental aspects and breakthrough certain misconceptions of what agnosticism is, as well as other ultimate beliefs.
a.gnosticism- breakdown the word and you have void/anti gnosticism. Gnosticism was a once a school of cosmic philosophy that taught a general, nameless view of creationism. In other words, divine influence is what created reality.
When you look at it this way, the term 'agnosticism' seems to be synonymous with the term 'atheism'. Technically speaking, this is grammatically correct.
However, agnosticism is more involved about gnostic teachings, and so is coined in relevance to it's genre rather then to atheism, which has no prevalence on creationism altogether.
The teachings of gnosticism itself is a dead subject for the most part in this day and age. However, it phantoms within religious teaching.
The deepest conception of agnosticism goes all the way back to the beginning of reality. What is there lies a big
?
Pretty much, an agnostic believes that science nor creationism can prove what made this reality.
This is highly logical. Science can uncover every aspect of reality, but it cannot reveal it's origin. As far as religion goes, it just so happens that most of them are unfalsifiable.
There is one misconception about agnosticism, however, which is surprisingly popular. It's the idea that agnostics say everything is uncertain. This is simply not a requirement for having an agnostic approach. I'm personally certain about many, many things, and I hold agnosticism with great esteem.
This is my belief and rationale.
Anyways, I wanted to make a specific thread on ultimate beliefs because they seem to be a reoccurring subject for me as well as others. If anyone wishes to talk or debate about this subject, feel free.
NOTE: I made this thread to keep things somewhat relevant. I know that sometimes it is necessary to stray to ultimately get a point across, and that's okay, but don't let it derail into a whole different subject.
Also, if you disagree, have a reasonable explanation why. There will be no saying someone is 'false' or 'prove it' simply out of stubbornness. And there will be no collaborating against anyone. I'm sure that could count as trolling.
