It's like all the monotheists are stuck with polytheism and the polytheists are stuck with animism. Frontwards or backwards, it is up to theists, who make claims, to back those claims up or play it wise... just believe, practice and worship like nothing else matters.
I still believe that there’s only one God in reality, whatever that may be imo.
That's fine.
We have endless reliable confirmable evidence for a spherical Earth. There does not appear to be any for a God.
Cool story. Now why should any rational person believe it?
It’s not for everyone
No one ever said we needed any imo
That is not an answer. Now it appears that you are admitting to being irrational. So there is that.
But once again, it is needed. Faith is not a pathway to the truth. If you want to believe something just because it makes you feel good then go ahead. But it is rather immoral to try to export your values from that belief onto others.
I’m sorry but I have to laugh at that.
Why is that? Are you making the error of assuming that you are reasoning rationally? Your posts tell us that that is not the case.
I’m not exporting my values onto others
Whatever you say my friend
I know, believers refuse to reason rationally because they are afraid of losing their faith. But that tells others that your faith appears to be rather weak since you have to take such steps to protect it.
Really? So you are not involved in politics at all? If you vote for immoral people then you are exporting your values.
Everyone on this thread has been kind. Except for you.
Politics? Voting? Where did all this come from? Take it easy my friend.
I disagree. You have been less than kind yourself. I merely made defensible and apparently true claims. How is that being "unkind". You on the other hand got a bit rude.
Now it appears that you were wrong about not exporting your beliefs. I vote, but I can justify my vote rationally. Do you think that you can do the same?
