    Zizek believes atheism is ideological

    Actually, I admire you. You have a remarkable ability to stay true to your unique style, even when it’s clear you haven’t quite figured out that it doesn't work. Your attempt to make the whole pot calling the kettle black thing almost seem new is quite charming. Do I look like a mind reader? I...

    Attempting to Censor X in the UK

    People need to be held responsible for speech that can endanger or harm people whether they are Elon Musk or "woke".

    Confession: I am a lowdown sneaky conniving atheist.

    Teach diversity then. Or keep Greek myths out of my schools.

    Zizek believes atheism is ideological

    You are being irrational. It just means I am not a mind-reader and I don't know you from Adam and I really have no desire too. Sorry. But nothing stands in isolation. Not one single thought. Like I said: atheism isn't a standalone idea. Buddha said all thoughts are contingent upon other...

    Is God a man?

    Tanakh says a lot of things. If you slap my dad in a dress and call him Mary doesn't mean I have to copulate with him. Why should I consider it of any importance to me? It's not my book.

    Confession: I am a lowdown sneaky conniving atheist.

    That's just me personally speaking about me and not all of my fellow atheists. You see, I am an atheist when it comes to Hellenic beliefs and I don't know if Zeus exists or not. I don't debate it or go out marching against Greek mythology being taught in schools. Some people actually believe in...

    Poll: Are you an animal?

    People cannot live on bread alone but you still need the bread, metaphysically speaking.

    Zizek believes atheism is ideological

    So never ever in the history of humankind has an atheist ever ever dismissed or ridiculed any belief in the supernatural as ignorant or stupid? Is that what you are trying to say to me? Please clarify. Surely you understand that scientific rationalism is an ideological framework predicated on...

    Poll: Are you an animal?

    It all seriousness I don't think the question, "Are you an animal?" is a serious yes or no question. It's more like asking me "Coffee or tea?" where I will always answer is "Yes, please." However, if the question is rephrased, "Are you a person or an animal?" then the answer is a definitive "both."

    Poll: Are you an animal?

    That's what she keeps telling me.

    Zizek believes atheism is ideological

    Debating you is like playing chess with a magician. The rules are lost, and the magician is just happy to perform tricks. But I'm not fooled. I can see what you're up to. You have nothing left. Take the L.

    Is God a man?

    Does that reason apply now? Why?

    Is God a man?

    You snuck Psalm 82 in on them.

    Is God a man?

    Tanakh also repeatedly tells certain people to whom it belongs not to eat shellfish or pork and not to wear cotton-polyester blends. So, there is that.

    WHY do you believe?

    I choose to believe because it gives me pleasure. It's that simple and I don't find evidence necessary.

    Zizek believes atheism is ideological

    I believe atheism, like all other foundational beliefs to be algorithmic. One point leads to other points and so on. Thoughts and beliefs do not stand in isolation and it's absurd to think so. Atheism is not a standalone idea. This is my opinion.

    Zizek believes atheism is ideological

    Yes. Some of them are anti-religion and anti-clerical. It used to be that activist atheists in the past were something that one encountered in a first-year philosophy class but things have changed with the rise and fall of the New Atheists movement. Like on atheist YouTube channels. Faux outrage...

    Attempting to Censor X in the UK

    The UK wants to ban Twitter because Musk uses the platform to spread misinformation. Is misinformation truly free speech? You can't yell fire in a crowded theater because people might get harmed. Spreading misinformation about covid and transgender people can be harmful. So it should have real...

    Zizek believes atheism is ideological

    They still made an unsubstantiated sweeping generalization implying that somehow atheism makes a person a rationalist who "believes" in science. It doesn't. They are wrong and you are nitpicking because you have nothing. Simple as. Any further nitpicking and I will report you.

    Zizek believes atheism is ideological

    You are the one claiming I did. The burden of proof is on you.
