I trust just about nothing I'm afraid. Past experience.

Faith / knowledge are certainly not incompatible, but they are very different. Agnosticism, if I applied the label to myself would mean remaining there endlessly. I'm unprepared to enter a state of not knowing (although I am currently in that state I don't deem it absolute), when knowledge (gnosis) could still be gained without the use of faith (which to me currently is suspense of disbelief), which would be my preferred route. I'm inclined to think that He might not mind this stance if He created it all in the first place. To study this and find it based in fact would remove my need to trust (as this is an issue).
