There's a huge difference between "not knowing," and "not understanding." I know there is a specialty in mathematics called Physics. I don't "understand" how that mechanism works. I know that our universe is here through a process of evolution, but I don't understand how many of those mechanisms work.

Yet if someone tries to tell me that we're NOT here through a process of evolution, They're claiming to "know" something that they don't even "understand," and it's not arrogance to point that out. We can reasonably "know" that the gods of humanity never existed. We have the mathematics and observations to show that. And when it comes to religion, it's not that difficult to spot someone who doesn't "understand" trying to convince the rest of us that they "know."

What we can't "know" is the nature of the Universe itself. How aware is it of itself... if at all? Sagan said that we were the Universe studying itself. What does the Universe see, if this is true. Will the Universe learn from our experiences? Can we teach the Universe compassion if it's observing us? Of all the questions we keep asking ourselves, the one answer that seems to elude us is... "why?"

Everyone here is different. Some were Believers and just finding us. Why are you judging? This is a Freethinker website.

I do have a perceived arrogance against sky fairy believers but each and every believer in the boogieman in the sky is arrogant in their beliefs against the other believers of different invisible sky daddies.

I'm just perceived as arrogant in my belief that they are all stupid.

If there is any question, there is no question. Why is it a part of the human condition? I submit religion is an accident of birth, the result of the parent's need to conform due to fear of authority. Arrogance is an expression of authority. Disbelief is not arrogant, it is rational.

well you shouldn't be. I find religion to be of little use now we have science to celebrate

I'm not surprised. Religion/cults have caused a lot of damage to a lot of people. Some have suffered more than others and that is reflected in their comments.

If there is a creator of this universe then I know for a fact that it is not the "god/s" that some writer/s made up and the religious institutes it inspired.

I think it’s more Arrogant to claim to be on speaking terms with the grand creator of the entire universe, and to know what he wants. Than it is to say “I don’t believe you” when someone makes such a claim. What do you think is arrogant about the people in this site?

the name of the site is Agnostic but there are a lot of atheists here. Also a lot of people in recovery from religious abuse that speak their minds

Not all of us say we "don't know".
