You view your religion as a flavour of ice-cream? And are you asserting that one particular flavour of ice-cream is right whereas all others are wrong? And that it is better to have ice-cream than not? When you think about it, that analogy really doesn't work at all, does it?
And incidentally, there is absolutely no need for the agnostic to 'make a decision' on this matter prior to death. Why do you believe this is so?
want any ice cream. So both the atheist child and the agnostic child
leave the shop without any ice cream. The believing child is the only
one that gets to enjoy the ice cream because he made that decision.
