    Religion - Some Questions

    No, it suggests that religions like the ones that caused that much suffering don't work. What you're doing is an overgeneralization of all religions, assuming they're all basically the same. Perhaps it would serve you well to learn about my religion, Flawlessism (just google "Flawlessism" and...

    Secular Humanism

    Yes, but they also state the Atheism can't be a non-secular religion, yet I believe in the non-secular religion, Flawlessism. Maybe they just misspoke, but I'd like to hear your take on that.

    Can we change our mind about what we believe?

    When I said merge, I meant put it next to. So, you'd do it like this: https://www.reddit.com/[----]r/GoodAndEvilReligion/wiki/index/ (but just remove this part [----]). Anyway, aside from that, yes, I would stop believing in Flawlessism if the core faith is disproven.

    Can we change our mind about what we believe?

    An Atheist Flawlessist is someone who believes in the atheist sect of Flawlessism, which is a non-secular religion. If you want to learn more about Flawlessism, there's a subreddit I made on Reddit.com, and while I can't give you the direct link since it's a religion restricted to 18+, I can...

    Can we change our mind about what we believe?

    Well, given my conversations with you so far, it did seem pretty likely you have a reasonable mentality. I'm about the same as you, but if someone has a belief which clearly contradicts logic, and they're not acting reasonable, then I'll usually just not try to argue with them, ignore them, that...

    Can we change our mind about what we believe?

    Thank you for clarifying. My religion isn't a major one (yet), so that now makes sense that they reacted that way. Well, sort of, I did get the feeling that they were being intentionally misleading so I would be forced to listen to what they were saying without being able to have a meaningful...

    Can we change our mind about what we believe?

    Got it. By the way, I've studied the Baha'i faith somewhat, and even interacted with someone else of that faith, and I'm confused about the acceptance of other faiths, because the person I interacted with implied that they accepted all faiths, but seemed to reject my own, only wishing to speak...

    Can we change our mind about what we believe?

    What I'm going to say isn't me judging you as being wrong to have done what you did, but I feel like there's a lack of sync between healing your mind, and healing your spirituality regarding your current faith (or am I not understanding what you're saying correctly?)

    Can we change our mind about what we believe?

    For someone to change their mind, they must be in a position where it's reasonable enough to do so, people who have suffered horribly and haven't recovered yet are not people who can easily change their understanding of things, as they want stability in their worldview, even if it's wrong. But...

    Medical Assistance in Dying (MAID), or Euthanasia

    8 years ago, I was 24 years old, and still a Christian, but after leaving Christianity behind, my views gradually changed over time, and now, since I adhere faith to Flawlessism, I understand the importance of accepting death as a positive aspect of life under certain conditions. Though...

    Logic requires Faith

    Not all faiths are equal to each other. We understand logic requires minimal faith, given how much you can build off of the faith of logic alone. I happen to believe in a religion/philosophy called Flawlessism which does something similar, however, it requires faith in logic and science, but it...

    Logic requires Faith

    Arrogance? Even arrogance may not be as you think, in other words, you are just saying that's what your faith is. That's your opinion. In your opinion, once again, something you seem to have trouble understanding the difference of to being reasonable in others viewpoints.

    Logic requires Faith

    Yeah, once you have faith in something, you normally don't need more faith to continue to have faith in that thing, because that thing has structure you can work off from. Having faith in logic is like creating a foundation, upon which many things can be built. If that foundation is proven wrong...

    Logic requires Faith

    Yeah, which requires faith, which is fine. My argument here is not that people shouldn't have faith, if that were true, I would see no point in having this debate since I wouldn't be using logic since I would see logic as invalid.

    Logic requires Faith

    Yeah, sure, people use different types of logic, but I'm saying all logic could be false.

    Logic requires Faith

    That seems to be implying that people don't choose to have faith in things that are otherwise dead ends, which is false in my case, as I have faith in my religion, Flawlessism, because to do otherwise would be a dead end.

    Logic requires Faith

    Sort of. Expecting society to change in a way that would be better in the long run is not something to expect to happen any time soon, and trying to change the norm quickly would likely just backfire.

    Logic requires Faith

    Now I'm confused what you're talking about. If you're trying to ask me how a person can truly know something without faith, the only way I can understand is if the laws of reality itself changed to allow for such a thing.

    Logic requires Faith

    If it is true that the world exists as it seems to, and somehow, someone gained true awareness of this, then they would know the world correctly. If someone has faith in a belief system, and others also have faith in the same belief system, then they would know how things truly are in that...

    Logic requires Faith

    We understand logic through our awareness, but if our awareness isn't the way we think it to be, then logic may not be logical. Just like the example I gave of logic not being correct in regard to non-literal statements, it's possible that we lack awareness that all of reality exists differently...
