    They know exactly the same about the unknown: nothing.

    Otherwise it wouldn't be "unknown".

    Believers dont know anything about anything...

    Believing is accepting something which is not in your direct experience... for e.g. You dont believe you have two eyes, you know you have two eyes...

    Some people say that there is a third eye, but unless you experience it yourself you dont really know that...

    the unknown cannot be known, the unknown can only be experienced... the very reason unknown is unknown is due to it being outside the reach and comprehension of our senses...

    I have come to understand that silence is unknown and the only way to experience the unknown is to be in silence, in other words, Meditate and the unknown will be in your direct experience...

    Dont believe anything... Know everything!

    First off let me say that the two flaws in society are, believing you know something about the universe and believing in things stupid Sh!ts belive in that they shouldn't. Let me ask you this, do you think we know more now than we did 1000 years ago? To answer your question yeah believers know more about the unknown than non believers. Why? Because only theological truth can be obtained through theism. Atheists are just black and white. If you would like to know more let me know, I'm an INTJ mastermind.

    'Believers' in anything, know more about the imagination because 'beliefs' exist in the vanity of the imagination!

    Thoughts = imagination = ego = Vanity!

    Reality is waaaayy larger and stranger than any tiny concept that you could possibly imagine!

    Would you say believers in god know more about the unknown than those who don't believe in god?

    ~~~ I will say that the odds are great that only a 'believer' would talk about "knowing ... about the unknown!"

    You can't 'know' about the 'unknown' by the very fact of its being unknown!!

    Get it?

    Capisce'?

    Notice the fallacy?

    No, the unknown remains the unknown. Inserting imaginary stories into the void won't do. That's why evidence is important - it stops people's imaginations free-wheeling away on fantasy.

    Considering the hypocrisy that they display,No.
