It should not be conditional on others being civil. We should be able to remain civil when others are not. Think of is like I do; becoming uncivil is an admission that you have run out of civil replies and have lost the debate.pizzanui wrote:… I am very prone to debate religion furiously, but I'm sure I can keep it civil for this forum, if others do the same.
Left leaning, in the context of American politics is centerist in the rest of the world.pizzanui wrote:Politically, I'm very left-leaning.
Not a problem.pizzanui wrote:Sorry for the misunderstanding ^_^;
I suspect that you mean gnostic not nostic (which autocorrects to nonstick).pizzanui wrote:I am a nostic atheist. This means that I do not believe in any God or Gods (atheist) and that I know that my atheistic perspective is correct (nostic). However, if you think that you can convert me, go for it ^_^. I crave intelligent discussion. I am also looking for someone to debate one-on-one. Have a nice day!
Agnostic (from Ancient Greek [font=Georgia]ἀ[/font]- (a-), meaning "without", and [font=Georgia]γνῶσις[/font] (gn�sis), meaning "knowledge") was used by Thomas Henry Huxley in a speech at a meeting of the Metaphysical Society in 1869 to describe his philosophy, which rejects all claims of spiritual or mystical knowledge. Nostic is not really a thing.pizzanui wrote:No, I did mean nostic, though I'm not really sure if that's a thing. I certainly am not gnostic XD. I figured that if AGnostic was not having a sure knowledge, then nostic must be having sure knowledge (nos = knowledge? It's pure speculation, and may be a false label).
