Someone asked me the other day if agnostics had a symbol. Funny enough I drew a blank and all I could tell her is maybe a question mark.
Yet here I am and thought what the heck I'll run a search for it on google images. This is the first hit I get.

It's Salvador Dali painting. I used to have some of his paintings in my home but I've never seen this particular one. I'll have to look into it.
Thanks for the picture
Agnostics are suppose to be intellects, trying to figure out what was going through Dali's head while looking at his paintings is interesting.
All of his paintings names basically tells you what he was thinking but looking at the painting it'll take you awhile to understand what he means. Cool thing is finding things in his painting you didn't see to begin with.

With the departure of several Regulars recently it's very good to see an old denizen of the Hockey Category. Apparently, there is some glitch that causes questions to be miscategorized. Yahoo has been working on something over the last 13 days that has made the site whackier than usual, but that's the norm ain't it? I've also noticed some heightened troll activity but I'm not sold on the fact that it involves any of the real usual suspect(s). Probably just some imposter(s). Stanley Cup? Well, I wouldn't go that far but the Blackhawks will be heard from in the coming years. Things are looking up for Chicago already and Scotty Bowman can help ANY team.

It is by Salvador Dali. I don't quite understand it. MAYBE it's a piece of food in the middle and the spoon is going around it...kind of like saying the agnostic doesn't want to address the point directly much like how the spoon doesn't want to really pick up the food? I'm clueless.
Here's a link to the painting area. You may get better answers there. This type of art ALWAYS confuses me:

Did anyone else see a heroin rock and the spoon to heat it? Or do I need to get more sleep/better friends?
Just FYI, I personally have never had any heroin, nor did I ever even want any. But that symbol seriously looks like drug paraphernalia.

It could be the agnostic is the thing in the middle and is being pulled between the 2 sides (atheist-theist).

It's a Dali painting--it may very well be a tangled sperm

it appears to be a painting by Salvador Dali, not a symbol of agnosticism.
