They really are...the sexiest people on earth.
Agnosticism is the only view point that makes sense.
Evolution easily disproves the monotheistic conceptions of God and any conception of a "personal hands on creator", however, we dont yet have sufficient proof to dismiss the possible existance of someother form of "God" or "Being".
String theory may solve the issue once and for all...we are not there yet.
God probably doesnt exist...but a statment, any stronger than this, is arrogance driven post-religious hangovers

I have not really found any faith particularly sexy, but I will keep an eye out, now that you mention it.
Agnostism to me is simply the statement "I don't know what the answer is - and I am satisfied with that" which seems to me to be a little like being in the polar bears club and then wanting to just stick your toe in the water.
I think that a definition of God would be in order if you want to say it doesn't exist. I think that it is clear to any observer that there is something beyond our understanding here - that there is some energy that powers this existence and our selves. As much as God is characterized as an Old White Haired Gentleman - I think precious few of us really think that we are dolls in his toy chest (an image more evocative of the Olympus Gods).
If we can agree that God is simply the energy that powers this existence we can find share a more common ground - just as broadening our term prayer to include meditation and intentioning can be more inclusive of varied faiths.
And if you are going to go with Agnostic - why not consider more than just those theories set out in the popular religions. How about some of these theories for our existence and the nature of god:
Perhaps when we came here we gave ourselve a long and complicated (and deliberately vague) history to fit with the lessons we came here to learn and none of it actually happened.
How about the idea that each and every one of us is right, because thoughts become things and if enough of us believe it becomes real in some way? Some people believe that gods live on belief and without it they die (certainly we have seen that with some of the older, less remembered gods in this world).
Perhaps earth is a virtual reality learning center for energy beings of a different race and GOD is the caretaking program that overseas our time in the machine. Maybe the death myths are more to help us shift our consciouness from one form of existence to the other. Maybe we go "home" every night in our dreams.
There are greater things in heaven and earth than are dreamed of in our philosophies. There is no way to know the unknowable, but it is fun to theorize. Religion is not the reason for living, religion is the tool that helps us get through the tough parts of life - that's all. Pick one that supports and empowers you is what I say - no matter what others think - but pick one, don't just sit on the fence, please.
Peace!

I don't think agnostics are sexy. I actually saw a survey once that said midget (sorry) I mean little people Hindus are the sexiest people on Earth. They won by 3 percentage points over one-eyed Mormons.
Agnostics are people , as you just said, can't prove anything one way or the other. That means they don't know and are incapable of believing anything.
I think you should have another drink and go back to the poker table and talk to the agnostic holding three Kings. He's getting religious, suddenly.

They're the sexiest people on earth because they can't decide what garments to wear, since they believe that one cannot truly know which garments are the best to wear. So, they go streaking around in the nude all day, unable to commit themselves to a decision. That seems pretty sexy to me. (Assuming they keep themselves in decent physical shape, that is - and assuming that all agnostics are female.)

Do you have "sufficient proof to dismiss the possible existance of" Santa Claus?
No, you don't. So do you still reserve judgment about Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny, etc?
No?
Hypocrite.

evolution doesnt disprove God, all it disproves is that it happened in some kind of flash bang with hands and all of a sudden people were made.
but yeah, agnostics are like the best bet.

I don't think we can ever know for sure whether or not agnostics are the sexist people on earth.

Since all evolution theories are just that, theories...with massive and gaping holes in them, from a purely scientific standpoint; I suppose that also explains gnosticisms problems as well.

evolution has yet to prove anything, i can give u a bunch of details that prove that evolution is false and God is real, and as far as agnostics being the sexiest, not any chance , they are just really lost individual "sitting on a fence" afraid to jump to either side,
