Since the beginning of time, mankind has asked the unanswered question of God's existence. The truth is, no one person has ever discovered solid evidence that God does indeed exist, but on the other hand there is never enough evidence to support the theory that God does not exist. Think of it as an object; one that you can clearly see in front of you. As far as we are concerned, the object exists because it appeals to the five senses. But let's say that the object does not appeal to the five senses, does that mean that it doesn't exist? Clearly, the only possible solution is that it could or could not exist, and that probability can only be swayed by defined physical proof. Faith is described as belief in things unseen or unknown, and that a person can dictate the existence of God based on what they believe in their heart and soul without physical evidence. This may be all the proof that some need, however it still does not define what they believe or what they know as fact, because there is no physical substance to prove what they think or feel is the truth to others in which they can provide.

So many people claim to know the truth, and deface others in their path claiming superior righteousness, but most religious teachings will speak against that very attitude. There are many religious people out there that treat others just as bad if not worse than those who are unbiased and undecided about religion, so there is not a single person that goes without wrong. Just because you believe in your truth does not make it the truth for everyone else, and whether you realise it or not, just as most things are in life, it also doesn't mean that there is one way and only one way; once again there is no physical substance or proven fact that we can use as reference to such a claim. Truth is what we as human beings make it, because we tend to pick and choose what we want to believe as fact and what we choose to see as false, so that our beliefs suit our ways of life and do not interfere with our wants and desires. Such has always been the way of mankind; we refuse to see the wisdom in the paths of others and fear loopholes in our own ways of life, therefore we seek to exile and destroy that which is unfamiliar to us so that we may bring comfort and security to ourselves.

So many people get the wrong idea about Agnosticism. They think it means that you do not believe in a higher power, or that you just haven't chosen your path in life yet. It is frowned upon by others because they question the moral values of such people. But how can the moral value of a person be tainted, when they are willing to accept everyone for who they are despite what they believe? How could gaining wisdom from all walks of life and understanding the beliefs of mankind before deciding who you are as a person be wrong? True wisdom and free will comes from walking all roads and deciding for yourself which one is best to take. Closing your mind off to one path and refusing to learn about other cultures, or being told by someone else what you should think or believe is an enslavement of the mind and can only lead to confusion and disaster later in life.

In conclusion, Agnosticism is not a religion, but a way of life. One can be an Agnostic and still be theist or atheist. All it really means is that you choose to acknowledge that you are imperfect and do not know all the answers, and that you don't pretend that you know something for a fact that everyone else is unaware of. No person on this planet will ever know our destiny after death until that time comes. So meanwhile, let us learn to keep an open mind, and welcome our brothers and sisters of the world in so that we may learn from them, instead of turning to hate and destruction to prove something that simply cannot be proven. For the only thing that we as simple human beings can prove regarding the future is that we are alive and that we will eventually die; let us all take that knowledge and make the best of it.
