Many in our society today have come to the conclusion, that we can't really know anything for certain. Others in the past have come to this same conclusion. We are living in an age when more and more people are asserting that we can't really know anything for sure. An Agnostic is a person who believes that the human mind cannot know whether there is a God or an ultimate cause, or anything beyond material phenomena. This would also apply to any truths found in the Bible, for all these truths are based in an ultimate spiritual reality.
Agnosticism is really in the end, self-defeating.
All such statements are negative dogmatism, that is, being dogmatic about what we don't know. We can discover no divine purpose or providence for the human species. While there is much that we do not know, humans are responsible for what we are or will become. Many people in our society seem to be certain of only one thing, that is, the Bible is wrong. Any criticism of the Bible, any attempt to claim that the message it contains cannot be clearly understood, accuses the God that authored it of deception or incompetence.
