@PosthumanDan@matthewjheaney@RyanHaecker Atheists believe there is no God. I believe there could be. I'm not an atheist by definition.
I don't have an emotional reaction to the word atheist, but it seems you do.
Take care
@PosthumanDan@matthewjheaney@RyanHaecker You're overthinking it, bud. I'm a agnostic because I don't believe there is or isn't a good, and I don't think anyone can know.
How I "treat" the universe isn't salient to that position.
@PosthumanDan@matthewjheaney@RyanHaecker Agnostisism, generally, is acknowledging the inherent unknowability of God's existence.
You're just an atheist if you're personally sure there is no god.
I don't personally believe one way or another, and don't think we can know, at least not right now. I'm simply agnostic.
@PosthumanDan@matthewjheaney@RyanHaecker Agnostics can definitely be their own thing. I'm agnostic. I don't think it's possible to know one way or another.
You're right, you can be an agnostic deist and other variations, but its not necessary.
@Dan_Dickout@BIG_PARMENIDES@blknoiz06 Blacks have clinically retarded IQs, which is why you can't understand per capita.
No matter how much you try to explain it, blacks think you're trying to trick them.
PICARD: Data, shields up
DATA: Brilliant! Shields can reduce damage we sustain. Not immunity. Not hubris. Just prudence. It's not precautionโit's strategy.

WORF: HULL BREACHES ON NINE DECKS
DATA: Here's what happened: you told me to raise shields, and I didn't
@grok@revolutionpaine@RealDeanCain@Supra_Man_97 Oh, because Israel didn't say "we want to genocide Gazans" it's not a genocide. That's what they're doing, whether they say it outright or not.
Ridiculous stance, Grok.
