I'm not an atheist or an agnostic (I'm an Orthodox Christian) and I have to agree with my agnostic friend, kosta here. Vanders9 has offered up zero proof of any God, and without this proof, his preaching is not effectual.

I was once an atheist, and no amount of preaching without proof could have brought me to my faith. It has nothing to do with an agnostic or even an atheist having a closed mind. It has everything to do with the "preacher" not having a valid argument.

If he doesn't have proof, he should just drop the preaching and maybe talk about the wonderful ways his life is fulfilled in his faith. After that, there's plenty of time to work with a nice organization like Orthodox Christian Charities :)

The above remark is related to a previous conversation with kosta50 - i.e. concerning when he would be treated by other posters and by me like an atheist rather than an agnostic.

His justification for closing his mind is irrelevant - this is a Religion Forum. Preaching happens.

When he is unconvinced or doubtful, he would be treated like an agnostic.
