Agnostic?

Does sufficient evidence exist for calling Twain an agnostic; or would he need to use the exact word in referring to himself? Amateur Encyclopedist (talk) 18:40, 13 June 2014 (UTC)

if you give reasons for why you would lable him X or Y, I think it's something that can be discussed. "was Lincoln gay". People do not always self identify as a term, and the term may or may not have been in general use. That said, you need more than heresay about a book that may have addressed it, to make the argument. What did he say about his view of god?

Section about Racism

Shouldn't there be a section on whether Twain was racist or not? I mean this is a big issue when people try to ban Huck Finn from being read in schools. S.H. DeLong (talk) 03:00, 21 May 2017 (UTC)

Given what he thought about Native Americans, I'd say he was.--Кřěĵ (ṫåɬк) 05:09, 23 April 2019 (UTC)
