“It is amazing how many intellectuals call themselves ‘agnostics,’ not realizing that this is the Greek word for ‘ignorant.’ To be ignorant is a shame when one has the possibility of acquiring knowledge. The Christian religion gives satisfactory answers to the ultimate problems of life.” Richard Wurmbrand, Reaching Toward the Heights
Psalm 73:22 I was so foolish and ignorant; I was like a beast before You.
That’s why College and University Educator’s classify themselves as Agnostic. Indeed they are Ignorant in more ways than one.
