Science is and always will be our way of understanding HOW things are created, not why. Then again, that's just me, I'm down to learn any persons point of view.

Agnostic theism is probably the most on-the-fence way of thinking and will most likely keep you out of all arguments based on our existence.

Smart.

I personally embody the last sentence with the exception of anyone with views that hold any prejudice or damaging perspectives. A lot of religious people won't take the earplugs out to listen to my theories on our existence, so why should I listen to their viewpoint? Especially if they're shouting at me about female inferiority, homosexuality being an abominable sin and a manifesto of intolerance that gives me a headache. I've never held any prejudice nor do I prejudge anyone due to their belief system but I will automatically dismiss your view if it surfaces that you are a bigot or an ignoramus.
