No

Welp, thats about enough talking to you then.

Enjoy your troll boys, he done well.

Do you believe your mother exists or do you know your mother exists?

A whole lot of theists just became agnostic. Gods going to be pissed.

Both

1. I don't believe in God
2. Not sure if God exists

[ ] 1 and 2 are equally strong arguments
[ ] 1 is a stronger argument then 2
[ ] 2 is a stronger argument then 1

The strength of the statement is irrelevant and honestly, your simplifications only serve to demonstrate that you don't understand the material. Just google agnosticism vs atheism and take the first few results and read a little.

Everyone else feel the same way?

You guys sure hate to answer yes and no questions. You always need to have an elaborate answer.

Yes.

Because it's frustrating to talk to someone who won't do a little research to see that they're completely wrong.

PTL: There are the things that you believe. There are the things that are true (reflect reality). Knowledge is when a thing that you believe is also a thing that is true.

One of the problems that comes up when talking about belief vs knowledge is how to know if something is true (before you jump on that, I doubt anyone will want to get into a discussion with you about the fundamentals of epistemology if you won't listen to them about the definition of these words!!).
Another problem is when someone mistakes the strength of their belief for the truth. This is why I prefer to think of agnosticism in terms of "it can/cannot be known for God to exist" over "I know/don't know if God exists" so you can't just make bald assertions.

Also, I did go to the trouble of posting this for you earlier, re: the differences between these three positions: believing | not believing | believing not. I don't know if you find this thread frustrating, but for the most part people are trying to be constructive, but you don't want to listen.

Meh. You know your body has two hands.
Do you see how that is knowledge and not a matter of belief?

No, not really.

Depends on how you define knowledge. You may be a brain in a jar, after all. (Really didn't want to say this as it's likely to confuse the **** out of Pay The Line)

Yeah, it's pretty well looking that way. PTL if you're not, in fact, a troll, perhaps you can elaborate. What leads you to think that knowledge and belief are synonyms?

I would think that 2. Not sure if God exists, would be a stronger statement. Your then saying that the knowledge of the whole universe is stronger than what you believe.

Who is more awesome? The universe or me. Sorry, guys, but I'm gonna go with the universe.

And why couldn't you assign different weights to 1 and 2?

1. I don't believe in God
2. Not sure if God exists

Sorry, I saw this and earlier. I still have to go back to the earlier comments and review. I will check it out tomorrow. Thanks!

Need some sleep
Goodnight guys

I've got this one, guys!

Pay:

Say I've got 100 marbles. 1 of the marbles is black and 99 are white. I place one of the marbles in a box without you seeing.

Now, do you believe the marble in the box is black or white?

Or,

Do you know the marble in the box is black or white?

I know the marble in the box is black or white.
I believe the marble in the box is white.

Is that what you were going for?

(And I can't really know either tbh, it would require that I believe your story that you took one marble from the set)

So, actually, I suppose... I believe the marble in the box is black or white.

Maybe, try again.

Just as a simple add-on example to the difference between belief and knowledge:

I meet Pay The Line in a bookstore and tell him my name is Rick. He has no reason not to trust me, so he believes my name is Rick. Does he know my name is Rick? Nope.

Please, mr aj, would you do me the honour of expanding on your post?

this is better than mine

how's this?
