Do all agnostics think atheists are just as dumb as religious people?

Question

I do but I must say I prefer atheist over those other tards.
Really though Agnostics win the enlightenment prize.

Ya I dont know. I mean at least religous people were mostly brainwashed where as atheists decided for themselves that they know for a fact "nothing" started it all. How they came up with this idea is what makes them dumb if not dumber. To not leave open the possibility is ignorance at its most extreme.

Answer 1

We're all in the dark on this issue really, but I tend to think that those who admit the possibility that they don't already know everything are further along on the path of wisdom than the ones who are certain they know it all. There are tards in every camp, and there are wise people in the most unexpected places. Preferences can change...in answer to your question, I think idiocy is a vein that runs through every philosophical camp, a cross section, if you will. Do not be too quick to generalize.

Answer 2

No. As an agnostic myself I do not find atheist people dumb. Religious people are sometimes overzealous and extremist. Atheists are just a bit too far in the other direction. I personally am closer to the atheists since I am a secularist, but I can say that agnostics on a whole respect atheists more then religious fundamentalists.

Answer 3

Agnostics don't win any 'enlightenment prize'. Agnostics are just non-committal, wishy-washy, have-my-cake-and-eat-it-too, fence sitters.

Claiming agnosticism like it's a belief system is the weakest form of intellectualism ever.

Gnosticism refers to knowledge. When one says they are 'agnostic' about something they are saying they don't know any truth about the subject. To leave it at that is to fail to answer the question 'what do you believe?'

The agnostic says:

"I don't know if there is such a thing as god or not, so I refuse to put forth an opinion."

I'm what you would classify as an 'agnostic atheist'. I say:

"I cannot know for certain if there is a god or not. But, because there is not sufficient evidence that points to the existence of a god, I do not believe in one."

Answer 4

The Atheists who feel a need to cram "There is no God!" down others throats are just as ignorant the extremely religious people who try to convert everyone they meet and / or tell them how horrible they are.

But most of the Atheists and believers that I know are not like either, they have their reasons for their own beliefs but still respect everyone else.

Answer 5

well there are only so many possibilities and each has only so many possible biases so you do the math smarty pants opinions don't require any proof, statistics or facts and polls are just large unqualified groups of opinions. If you really wanted an unbiased enlightenment prize you would look for a free thinking or educated grouping rather than pivoting upon a religious factor with so many variables you couldn't handle it on your own if you wanted to.

Answer 6

If the word "all" is used in a sentence, you can be pretty sure the sentence is wrong. I am an Agnostic, and I don't assume anyone is dumb, religious or not. You seem like the one to win the entitlement prize here.

Answer 7

No, and you seem to be confusing weak atheism with agnosticism. You either believe in god or you don't, there's no in between. If you don't know if gods exist and you don't believe in gods then you're an agnostic atheist. If you don't know if gods exist but you believe in gods you're an agnostic theist.

So what are you? An agnostic theist or an agnostic atheist?

Answer 8

Any question that starts "Do all X think that..." is probably false. No, not every single agnostic thinks the same about anything. Have you ever tried to get people to agree on something as minor as pizza toppings? Try finding agreement of the big questions sometime.

Answer 9

I think those that consider themselves agnostic people are afraid to admit that they are atheists. I find that everyone is really agnostic, but it shouldn't be a belief classification, seriously. Nobody is sure that they're right, unless they're very, very disturbed and ignorant. I'm not saying this to be offensive, but agnosticism is compatible with every single other religion, except for those that call for true blind faith and belief.

My definition of atheist is a person who is without belief in God(s). That does not mean the same as I believe there is no God.

It's like saying "You run" is not the same as "You have the ability to run".

Converses compared to contrapositives and such, see?

Answer 10

Agnostics + Atheists + Religious people = Everyone

So you are asking whether Agnostic > Atheists + Religious people = DUMB

I'm not sure who is the TARD here?
