<thinking really hard>... I guess I would be termed "spiritual" as I believe, accept, or whatever, a "something". This I don't question. For me it's a connection to the universe, my place in it, my own interpretation and communication. But on a social level, in dealing with people, with our society and the world.. i question a great deal. I'm rather, very unhappy at times with the state of things. I don't believe. I want proof. I believe in the universe but am unsure of my fellow humans, with some exceptions. But I don't think of this as on par with, or the same as (I hope), the material world being messed up and us only needing a spiritual world, like with streets of gold and all. And many I meet that call themselves "agnostics" have far more faith in humankind and this world than I do, and certainly more than many that call themselves "the faithful that will save us all". Dang, I think I'm probably making no sense. One bottom line is that I would trust you and X to take care of this world far more than I would the so-called "religious right" even though I would call myself a person of "faith" and you call yourself an "agnostic".
