Didn’t read earlier where he disqualified himself as “agnostic” -

but it seems to me that declaring that you can’t prove the existance or non-existance of God is pretty much the definition of agnostic. “We don’t and can’t know.”

I believe he’s pulling the same crap that all atheists/secular humanists (and MSM journalists) pull -

“WE’RE neutral, the rest of you are religious (ideological) zealots”

It is. So if he has said he is not an agnostic, and then turned around and said he cannot prove that a god or gods do not exist, he is contradicting himself.

I can think of only three explanations:

1)He simply chooses to define his philosophy positively (vis a vis the natural world which we know exists) rather than negatively (via the rejection of a "god or gods" whose existence is accepted "on faith").

2)He's actually one of us trying to make the other side look bad.

3)He's crazy as a bessie bug.
