Most people here, such as me, are acting like idiots (Note how I included myself). In our current society, we should have enough understanding of our differences that we are capable to get along. But instead, we babble on without regard of what is actually important. There are greater matters to attend to than religion. Surely we can just accept that we have differing opinions and move on? It's not like in our current day and age that religion plays a great role in our lives (for most of us). If you feel like choosing a "side", then do so. It is none of my business, or anyone else's. In a world where freedom of speech is thought to exist, we should not have to badger one another over whom's opinion is dominant.
Excellent points Highfire. This is the reason I say evidence is so important when making a determination of what's real or not, and not just evidence from personal experience but objectifiable evidence.
I see the debate on philosophical knowledge is dropped, that's fine. I just want to add one last thing before dropping it myself. Even with this definition it still doesn't put agnosticism as a middle ground between theism and atheism but instead creates the requirement that one be theist or atheist in order to be gnostic or agnostic.
