as an agnostic, I am compelled to make these comments :

- I exist as an agnostic.
- I dont look for "better". I live with what I can make with my efforts.
- I do many things that will have an effect after I die. Those things will benefit some who are still alive.

Bottom Line : I have Faith that if I do something right, I have done what I wanted to do.

All the things we do for the future requires, at minimum, a faith that the future will exist.

Indeed.

I think it's also possible for agnostics to not have faith. That nihilism that Neo was always going on about is a possibility. In any event, whether one has the capacity for faith is not a function of agnosticism. Faith is not obviated by agnosticism.
