194 - "Your belief then seems to be, that if it can't be proven, it doesn't exist. "

I never said any such thing, I said I was an agnostic, not an atheist. It takes as much faith to be an athiest as a believer. I am AGNOSTIC - (don't know)

"Does that not make for a very small plain of existence? And does that not leave unanswered many important questions about life?"

Actually, the mind is a wonderful place, and the plain of existence is quite broad. Just to contemplate the universe, look through the Hubble. Read Isaac Azimov's 'Foundation' and blow your mind.

However, I am quite happy with being an agnostic, however, the 'certainy' of the believer does lead to a more tranquil, non-thinking life, as you have nothing to prove.

I think we are confusing religion with spirituality. My belief in God is not constrained by religious dogma. Neither is it bound by science.

Perhaps we are not that far apart in our beliefs.
