I could agree with that statement. However, I believe that when an individual reaches a certain level of consciousness they understand that which is unknown to man....
This level of consciousness is not a thing that can be learned or taught by any master...
At one point I actually cosigned evolution theories, but after spending much time researching it came to the conclusion that it violates all ancient codex and is detrimental to indigenous peoples across the globe.
Make no mistake Darwins theory stands on firm ground. However, it does not cannot tell the origins of man. Evolution theories sprung up prior to the discovery of the genotype and phenotype. It attempts to incorporate genetics, even though the theory's staunchest opposition has emerged from the field.
I Was Agnostic for a Very Long Time & My Feelings on it was I Was Fence Sitting. Now I Do Agree there is a Certain Level of Consciousness Man Can Achieve through Meditation or Through Some Other Means Perhaps.
I Disagree That This Level Can't be Taught or Learned to be Achieved & I See no Reason to Think this is Supernatural State or Anything Supernatural Being the only way to Achieve it.
I Typically Hate Evolution Conversations, Cause They Always Turn into Origins of Life Convo's & That is not What Evolution is About! It's Pretty Much Proven Science, What People seem to want to Talk about is abiogenesis ...
My Question to You I Guess is, If You're Agnostic, Aren't You & A Atheist on more Common ground than not? What Would Make You Jump off The Fence & Become a Theist or Atheist? Btw I Have Yet to Meet a Atheist who 100 Percent Believes There is No God. What I Hear from Most Intelligent Atheist is They Lack Belief because of Lack of Proof & If More Proof was to Become Available they would Change they Mind. How is That Arrogant?
Not the greatest Master can go even one step for his disciple; in himself he must experience each stage of developing consciousness. Therefore he will know nothing for which he is not ripe. ~ Inner court, Temple of Luxor
Isn't this the reason you forsake "indoctrination"
I don't really have anything in common with an individual that found some discrepancies in the Bible and then turned to a pseudoscience in order to "debunk" it....
Although I agree with the fence sitting bit, I have chosen a position on most of these topics such as I.D. v. evolution and have been sharing it across this room....
There are various degrees of agnosticism, atheism, and theism. If I had to classify myself, I would be a strong agnostic theist.
When an individual states that there is no proof and therefore no God. It just appears similar to an individual stating that they have proof of God and therefore a God.
Kind of like the pot calling the kettle black.... or arrogance
