I am agnostic about the nation in your hand. And extraterrestrials, And whatever.

Are you "agnostic" about it, or "atheist," I meant. I assert it with certitude.

Well, E, you've turned my brain into a pretzel, but I will take a stab at answering your question. I am certain that you do not have a nation in your hand. You most likely have a mouse in one hand and you may have a coffee cup or a chocolate bar in the other. There's no room for a nation.

What finally brought me around to the notion that I am best classified as an agnostic was one of those questionnaires we were all doing at that time. There were descriptions for each category and the agnostic category was something like "not certain or doesn't matter. I'm a doesn't-matter agnostic. I may also be a non-certain agnostic but I'm not certain about that.
