Pondering doubt

Robin Le Poidevin, Professor of Metaphysics at the University of Leeds, makes a case for agnosticism. (Hat tip: Andrew Sullivan)

On this, I have no position or, Lord knows, any answers. But his conjecture about God’s existence is, if nothing else, thought provoking:

[In science] elegant simplicity is the ideal. Perhaps God is like that: his understanding and capacities may be infinitely complex, but the underlying nature that gives rise to that complexity may be relatively simple. If so, then it isn’t a given that the probability of such a being is enormously improbable.
