A large number of Americans are Agnostics, but we're not treated with respect by the culture, the schools, or by our politicians. "Vengeance" may be an evil thing, but that doesn't mean Agnostics have to support the people who are attacking us or meekly stand by when other followers of their own conscience are denigrated and oppressed for their path. The habitual wimpiness of so many Agnostics is particularly grating because when Agnostics shine a spotlight on these attacks and say, "That's enough," more often than not we win. So, if Agnostics across the country were consistently willing to speak out and take the action of allowing each to follow their own faith, you'd be surprised at how quickly our culture would begin to change.
