God either exists or he doesn't (provable or not) so there is something to decide you believe. This doesn't mean what you believe is correct. If you choose to not believe one way or the other you are undecided. That you can give a reason why you cannot make a choice doesn't make you any less undecided.
That's why we use the word agnostic, which is generally taken to mean "a person who holds that the existence of the ultimate cause, as God, and the essential nature of things are unknown and unknowable, or that human knowledge is limited to experience."
Not an atheist, they believe that God does not exist. Obviously not a believer. Someone who thinks they can't decide.
Please note I said can't because I meant can't, do me a favour and don't read it as won't.
Again you misrepresent!Quote:

It is NOT a case of not being able to make a choice.
I really don't see why you persist with this.
It's like if my wife comes home with two dresses and asks which one I prefer.
I say I have no preference.
She says, you just can't decide.
I say, it's got nothing to do with it, I have no preference, I like them both equally.
Ok if you have no preference you are not deciding. Again all you are doing is giving a reason why you can't decide, and if you can't decide you are undecided.
you are undecided if you won't decide. (for whatever reason)
you are undecided if you can't decide. (for whatever reason)

pwnd by a dyslexic merkin, now that's V poor indeed.
Yeah, I know, but it's 5am, 87 degrees, Manchester United won, I've downed a six pack of VB, and the dyslexic merkin would argue that black was white.Quote:

Ah, so now it's coming down to insults :rolleyes:

Why should I, we are special
the third is still widely accepted even though it's impossible. people find it difficult to believe this is just a survival mechanism. there are influences such as drugs and brain damage that can change a personality. sleep deprivation can make us act unlike we normally do. brain damage can make a person forget everything they've ever done.
You having alternative explanations doesn't make it impossible. Both can be true.
if there is an afterlife we won't remember this one, and because this one can be corrupted by so many things beyond our control it shouldn't effect the next.
Not a clue what you mean there. Seriously, not a clue.
first off, when did we become special? if you believe in evolution and heaven, do mice and amoebas go to heaven?
as for the rest of what i said. if there was afterlife what does it have to do with this one? we know memory and personality and stuff are governed by hormones and the brain. if a brain is damaged personality and memory are effected.
if i lived a good life then turned into a violent sociopath due to injuries in a car accident. will i be judged on life only up until the accident or what?
