When you think about it, most religious belief (exluding gnostics) is just a complete guess about the existance (or nonexistance) of God.
Christianity, Islam, Judaism etc. are all based on "Faith", you have to have "Faith" in God, Allah, G-d, because he's not gonna come down just to prove his existance to you. There's no concrete evidence for it, so it's pretty much an ancient guess which is still followed by everyone nowadays.
The flip side of the coin, Atheism, usually follows the logical reasoning "We have no proof that there's a God, until something is proven to exist, it's logical to assume it doesn't exist." This makes sense, except (as religious people like to use as a defense) there's also no concrete evidence that he doesn't exist and there aren't really any truly concrete scientific explanations for the creation of the universe. None that can be proven or varified anyway.
Agnosticism is really the only belief which is truly right, since it doesn't make any assertations about the existance of God.
I'm not really sure what the point of this post was, or if i actually made any sense or not. I guess i'm just sick of people calling all the 13 year olds who rant on about atheism "ignorant" when religions are just as ignorant, hell, we're all ignorant when you think about it, just agnostics like to profess their ignorance instead of pretending to know everything.
