Carl Sagan was proud to be an agnostic when asked whether there was life elsewhere in the universe. When he refused to commit himself, his interlocutor pressed him for "gut feeling" and he immortally replied: "But I try not to think with my gut. Really, it's okay to reserve judgment until the evidence is in." --Richard Dawkins
Two types Agnosticism: TAP---Temporary Agnosticism in Practice; PAP---Permanent Agnosticism in Principle.
That I take to be the agnostic faith, which if a man keeps whole and undefiled, he shall not be shamed to look the universe in the face, no matter what the future may have in store for him. --T. H. Huxley (inventor of the Agnostic)
