If you consider yourself a true agnostic and consider that this question could be left unanswered, what is your view on the meaning of life? Does it have a meaning?
When I thought about it I tried to road map it, but I found it inadequate. I still think the basic V works the best

Gnostic -->Theist____Atheist <--- Gnostic
_____________\ ______/
______________\ ____/
_______________\ __/
______________Agnostic

ignore the ______, it auto reformated to the left and I had to put in the lines to show the shape.

You can find yourself gravitating more towards Theist and Atheism and still be agnostic. I think those lines represent a scale. When you reach the top, you are full blown gnostic.




As far as the meaning of life goes, I think Steve's writing exercise clears that up. It's a very personal question that yields a very personal answer. I think each individual is going to reach their own conclusion. I think those answers can change over time.
