I wasn't included in this, but I am usually lumped together with Timmy, so I thought I would chime in. Even though I claim to have settled into agnosticism since my apostolic exodus, though a true agnostic would probably take offense!

Do you believe in God? Yes, but his character, motivations, intentions, etc...are pretty much a mystery, and I don't know if I believe they CAN be known...hence the agnostic term.
Do you believe the bible is the inspired, infallible word of God? No.
Do you believe in the oneness of God? Yes and no. I don't claim to know. But when I think of God / Divinity, I think of Jesus. If I try to assign motivations or characteristics to God, I think of Jesus.
Do you believe acts 2:38 is the plan of salvation? not so much
Do you believe in speaking in tongues? yes and no. I cannot deny that it happens, and I guess I don't believe that in all cases it's some sort of fleshly mass hypnosis. In this area I can only speak of my own experience. I believe that something happened to me. That it was real, and that I was changed because of it. I didn't speak in tongues when that happened, but I did later, and still do at times, much to my own personal astonishment, LOL
Are you a one stepper or three stepper? none of the above. At most, I could be considered a half-stepper.
I would like to ask these questions of KWS and not of works also.
Failure to respond to these questions means revoking my vote for Timmy as GS.

I guess I can't truly be called agnostic, because of the whole Jesus thing.
