    I agree that there need to be discussions of greater depth than
    some of the "You're wrong, I'm right" sort of things which tend
    to give the "n" key on the terminal a workout. Perhaps articles
    dealing with the Nature of religion would be a little better
    than simple gainsaying.                  

    Because I am espousing this type of writing, I will put out a
    question to you all about the nature of agnosticism.

    I am an agnostic, and I've always said that I would believe in
    God when I had sufficient proof that He exists. Only recently
    have I begun to ask myself what evidence would be enough to
    convince me. I am still thinking about that one. What would
    be enough? Another intelligence that was far superior to us
    would be indistinguishable from the classic forms of God as
    presented by the various religions. What's the difference, then?
    I know that this is a question that's been thrashed around a
    lot, but a discussion of what exactly people define god to
    be would be appropriate here.
