(146,218 posts)He starts out by pointing out that he rarely talks about religion or god or things spiritual and seems reluctant to do it at all.
But I agree that the main thrust of his remarks are that he would rather not be labeled at all.
I love the phrase "I remain unconvinced". He does not like the word "believe" and does not want to associate with it. That really resonates with me personally.
Whether his thoughts are exactly the same as most of the atheists who post regularly here is highly speculative and I would not make that assumption.
It has been repeatedly argued here that one must be either atheist and theist. I strongly object to that and am glad that I am in such good company.
Like him, I don't really want to be labeled either, but agnostic comes closest to describing my position.
I am with you about skipping the label and very much in favor of letting him define himself however he likes.
When it comes to a deity, I remain unconvinced.
