For some reason preachers of faith think that agnostics are easy targets and I know that this is an open forum, but I sure get tired of the preaching. To me it adds nothing as they are not willing to concede that the books were written at a different time and/or a different culture, a lot of them do not have a clue as to the time/culture that influenced their book.The fact that they do not have accurate language in their books to explain things allows these preachers to interpret the words as they see fit. I've seen both Christians and now Islamics do it.
For you preachers out there, agnostics are not fence sitters who are easy to knock off. It will take more than a book and some words to change our minds no matter how holy and prophetic you think they are. I am pretty sure that none of us like being preached at, thus you are not helping the advancement of your religion and in fact are turning people off by your preaching.
Not trying to start an argument, just telling you how I feel.
