I Used to Be Christian Now I'm AgnosticI know something is out there that controls everything. You can call it God but it's not like what they say in religious texts. It's not loving, it's not forgiving, no matter how hard you pray it doesn't care about you because to them you're just a...See More »
I Am AgnosticI don't believe in religion. But in a being that controls the universe. I believe it has no form. Just an all knowing power that connects everything around you. It works only with positive power. No prayer, no hymns, no rituals, no sacrifices except...See More »
I Am AgnosticIf you think I am too critical of a particular religion, you're wrong. I criticize every religions. 😂
I Am AgnosticI don't hate religious people. I have met really good people among them. I mean I am in love with a Christian person. I don't mind going to church or attending mass with him. I don't question his belief either. It's just I have different opinions...See More »

I Am AgnosticAnd born into a catholic family, they just don't get that I don't believe the same as they do, I don't want to be religious, and I constantly have to go to church to see one thing or another else some might be offended.
I Am AgnosticThe opposite of religion is atheism, but the opposite of religious arrogance, is agnosticism. Agnosticism is coming to terms with the imminent fact, that one still doesn't actually know the true origins of the universe and life. It does not concern...See More »
I Am AgnosticMy aunt is a very nice person, she is very giving and caring, but she is also very religious. Catholic to be exact. I was on the phone with her for two hours today. She was talking to me a lot about her religion and how I shouldn't say I don't know...See More »
I Am AgnosticI do not like to say whether a god exists or not because there is no way to prove either side. I also do not really like religion honestly; I fully respect you if you have one and i'm okay with you, but it's just religion that I don't like. I feel...See More »
I Am AgnosticI actually don't know exactly what I am. My feelings about god(s) are complicated. I don't see much proof, but I do see it too. I sometimes see things and think "there's no way that was a coincidence". But, I also think that there is no way there...See More »
