Isn't it where you believe there is a higher form of power that created life and such, but you don't want to give it a certain name and devote your life to it? All the while believing that life goes on after death?

Aren't agnostics the undecided ones? "There might be a god, but there also might not be" the ones who have trouble forming an opinion?

That's how my agnostic friend described it :/

I am agnostic and I believe that there may be god or not, but I have no definite proof of it and there is no way anyone can ever prove it to me. That's basically it. I do not deny the existance of God, I'm just not saying I KNOW he exists, either

No, thats an atheist.


and no, to the OP. Agnostic means that you simply do  not know, and often do not care. You dont want to say "no, there is no God!", because you dont know that, but you also dont want to say "Yes, there is a God!", because you dont know that either.

Kinda like a religious procrastinator, or you hate religion like me and believe in a higher power or intelligence.

Something like that, it really depends.

I'm agnostic, I think that their is a higher power. I just don't think it's necessarily "god" himself. I think it's some kind of force that balances out nature and perhaps allows life on our planet.

I don't necessarily believe in the "bible" at all.

-------
I don't even know if I can be me.
Cause it's so hard to be me when you're next to me.
