Agnosticism is not its own belief system. Agnostics can either be agnostic atheists or agnostic theists. Agnostic vs gnostic is about whether you believe you can have knowledge of something. Most agnostics are actually atheists. Atheism is the lack of the belief in a deity, not the certainty that there is no deity. Gnostic atheists are certain there is no deity.

I believe all topics herein are covered fully in the M. Div. program there. Excellent, theologically sound school - many prominent grads - Dudeists, mostly. Good for modern faith-related languages too - Laid-back, Surfer, High and Low Lebowski, Hippie, Trippy, Hip-Hop, Hipster etc. One caveat -- no Title IV funding -- yet.

Carl Sagan once said that if we require an infinitely old being to have created the universe, why not just have an infinitely old universe and cut out the middle man?
