No they didn't. Both answers 2 and 4 are agnostic positions.
None covered my positon, sorry.
Probability does not matter, you either believe the supposition to be true or you do not hold the supposition to be true.
Probability may not matter to you, it does to me. I believe they are both as true and false as each other, either guess could be right and either guess could be wrong.
Hold on, what?
1) Evolution has nothing to do with either atheism or theism.
No need to tell me this, I have already said it has nothing to do with a deity position, theism and atheism both being deity positions of faith and belief.
2) Two contrary views do not mean that they "cancel each other out". In the case of evolution/creationism, one is right and the other is wrong (the right one being evolution).
When both have equal value and are in opposing directions they do, that is just a mathematical and logical fact, when we combine -10 with +10 the end resultant is zero. LOL it is only your belief patterns feeding your perception which tells you that evolution is the right one. Time and evidence will be the judge of this.
You don't have to, but you can't both believe a supposition and not believe a supposition at the same time. Nor can you make no claim either way. You can be an agnostic, but you cannot be an agnostic without also being either a theist or an atheist.
Of course I can believe something and not believe it at the same time, it is the very thing which gives my zero position, cannot logically say whether a deity exist or has ever existed, and I cannot logically say that a deity doesn't exist or has never existed. One cancels the other out to give me my agnostic position. I have made a claim either way, the probability is 50:50. Depending on how the discussion goes, which person attacks my post on which points, which cap I will put on, the theist or the atheist. Mostly it is non-believers, atheists and anti-theists who attack my initial post, in some might that they are right and what I have written is wrong. Like you have just done.
