Our Ignorance Of The Cosmos Is Too Vast To Commit To Atheism, And Yet We Know Too Much To Commit To A Particular Religion. A Third Position, Agnosticism, Is Often An Uninteresting Stance In Which A Person Simply Questions Whether His Traditional Religious Story (say, A Man With A Beard On A Cloud) Is True Or Not True. But With Possibilianism I’m Hoping To Define A New Position - One That Emphasizes The Exploration Of New, Unconsidered Possibilities. Possibilianism Is Comfortable Holding Multiple Ideas In Mind; It Is Not Interested In Committing To Any Particular Story.
