Re: Is It Possible to be Agnostic but still be religious?

And I'm realy sorry about this but have you ever died? cause if not I really don't think you can say whether people are going to Heaven or not can you?
Well, to hear some of the people here talk it would seem that being anything other than a fundamentalist Christian would doom you.

Anyways, you can be agnostic and religious, but it strikes me as a rather...odd stance to take. If you cannot know if god exists, why worship him? Just to make sure you get into heaven? That seems like a rather shallow reason that I doubt any deity would accept.

Besides, why believe in the Christian god, then? Why not become a Muslim? A Jew? A Hindu? I mean, they've got about the same level of evidence (though if you're agnostic I suppose that means that they've all got no evidence, but meh.) so why stick with Christianity?
