    David, I think that you are over-complicating things. I simply feel
    that the evidence is against Christianity.

    >Because you show no sign of having examined the truth of your current
    position.

    This seems to be an arbitrary charge. To the contrary, I've examined
    it a lot.

    >What positive implications does agnosticism have?

    Agnosticism means that you can live to get the most out of this life,
    instead of sacrificing in this life for rewards in the next that,
    I believe, never come. I quoted the apostle Paul to this effect in a
    recent post (1Cor 15:19, 32). I haven't seen anything in your posts
    that is a specific argument against agnosticism, other than perhaps,
    you fear it's lack of morals. Jerks (not a reference to anyone in
    particular) tend not to have friends. I'm not sure how much more "moral
    control" you need other than the police and the other enforcers of
    society's rules.
