[Agnosticism (Greek: α- a-, without + γνώσις gnōsis, knowledge; after Gnosticism) is the philosophical view that the truth value of certain claims — particularly metaphysical claims regarding theology, afterlife or the existence of deities, spiritual beings, or even ultimate reality — are unknown or, in some forms of agnosticism, unknowable.[1] It is not a religious declaration in itself, and an agnostic may also be a theist or an atheist.]
I was raised a devout Methodist (among other things that included avoiding alcohol).
At the age of 17, close friends showed me the light, and I became a full-blown atheist overnight (given my Sixth-Form class at school it was an exception to be anything else). This also allowed me a couple of years later to be able to enjoy the occasional beer!
I stayed like that until 1995 when, while working in Munich, I met a mad Scotsman (must have been mad - he was always buying rounds of drinks for everyone!), who was also a devout Roman Catholic (another sign of madness - he had a load of friends who support Glasgow Rangers). He is incidentally still one of my closest friends.
I found that I agreed with him on most things except religion. He did persuade me though that logically I could no more disprove the existence of God than he could prove it, and therefore I should become an agnostic. He, having faith, did not need logic, therefore he could stay a Catholic.
So for years I described myself as an atheistically-inclined agnostic. It was only after my heart attack last year, and nearly dying during the second operation, that I reverted to atheism - on the grounds that science suggests that when the brain and heart cease to function, the rest of the anatomy will, and it makes no sense to believe that anything else survives. The conscience and subconscious being both parts of the brain, they will depart with the brain.
For all that I will happily accept agnosticism - there is a logical argument for it. For that matter, I will accept anyone believing anything as long as it does no harm to anyone else, physically or emotionally.
One of my friend dreamed to own a car. His dream was an sport cars that he drive around. As he search on the net about cars she told me and show to me one of the model that he really admired of. Last week I talked with him again and he is now currently living in UK. He shared about how his lifestyle there. He works very hard for his family. Now he´s planning to buy new car and he doesn´t know where to buy and I guess this website will be the best site for him to search for a
new cars.

Some are politicians, others are actors, some are musicians. But they aren't always celebrities, some are family, former friends, coworkers or employers.
I'm talking about the people who we don't like so much that the mere mention of their name elicits negative reactions within us. We don't even know most of them, nor will we probably ever meet them. But that doesn't matter, we can't stand them anyway.
Of course there are the universal ones.. Hitler would be among these, but it doesn't take a holocaust to earn a person this dubious status.

I wear perfume called moonlight path. I love it! Do you wear perfume or cologne and if you do then what is a called?!?
Take a look to it:
new perfume blogI have a story to tell about scent. I do not know when it started but the university coeds now had been naturally greeting each other with pecks on the cheeks. We used to say hi or hello in the past. Or the boys would shake hands, Eventually, that turned into a high 5 or a simple Yo! But now the kissing and the hugging had become a friendlier gesture. One late afternoon though, when I fetched my brood in school, my niece exclaimed to my daughter "Have you applied lapigessence?" My daughter answered "I think I have. What about you? Have you sprayed lagarbage?" My niece responded "Certainly!" And they did not kiss. I asked what was that all about. They said that it is the person's natural scent after a long day's work. Sort of eaue de toilette. (Lol)
Did you hear about this story?
It comes as no surprise then that three teens have decided to emulate Tackett, photographing themselves bathing in a multi compartment sink used for washing and then sanitizing dishes, cookware and other items at the Anderson, California KFC.
According to reports, three girls stripped down to their underwear or changed into a bikini and then proceeded to photograph themselves bathing in the restaurant's sanitation sink and posted them on a social networking site. 3 people were involved & were reprimanded & suspended.
So what do you think about that? Everyday something new happens that makes me worry about eating out.
I open the television last night and I can't help but to be curious about a sex scandal of a famous actress and a doctor here in the Philippines. I was really that curious that I asked my officemates if they have seen the video and it started to pour through bluetooth. I saw both of the videos and I can't help but to pity the woman who has been innocent of knowing that supposed to be their private moment was caught on tape.
Anyway, I don't want to elaborate the scene, the issue right now is having been debated over the congress and they are planning to have a law against the people who were violating it.
I agree but this is the nth time of sex scandals in the Philippines and they are only taking actions today. If they have done something about this decades ago, it must have been preventive.
One more thing, they are arguing and rushing on the bill and the law for this but the real problem of the society has been ignored again. Poverty, unemployment, etc.
You? What's your opinion?
