The thing that matters most is that you be a good person regardless of what you believe. |
Many agnostics are not far off of the same path as Liberal Christians or Buddhists in the quest to rid themselves of idolatries (like political ideologies, fanisms, nationalism, etc...), greed, and other such things; many who identify as Agnostic-theists are on the same path, just with different terminology, and different (or even similar) culture. Liberal Theists (or interfaith practitioners), like Gandhi, saw the same path in multiple faiths (in Gandhi's case; Judaism, Christianity, Islam, Buddhism, and Hinduism).
100 years ago, the Darwins and the Huxleys of the world believed an agnostic approach to everything was necessary in order to be completely open to scientific truths.
I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.
