Why agnostic? Like... If there's no proof, why believe in the existence of a deity at all?

From the moment I understood the weakness of my flesh…

im torn between tst and secular buddhism. Luckily they are not mutually exclusive or demand they are the only way.

You can just call yourself an atheist. Hell, if you call yourself a pastafarian you are basically an anti-theist.

[–] WoodScientist@lemmy.world 2 points 3 hours ago

Atheist and agnostic are not synonyms.

If this is you, consider joining or supporting The Satanic Temple. This is why they exist, and they do more meaningful and practical good than a meme religion.

One of the core tenants of Pastafarianism is being too lazy or broke (or both) to actually contribute

I mean you go girl more power to ya but it definitely isn't easier to explain pastafarianism than agnosticism to normies. Noone except programmers and other too online people even know it exists (yes i am also a terminally online freak relax peeps, real recognize real)

Just show them the graph. Can't argue with hard data.

[–] AeonFelis@lemmy.world 7 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

That's the neat part - you don't have to explain anything. You just assert the truthfulness of your religion and act offended when people point out how ridiculous it is.

Chad moves. Get theology-mogged you faithless heathencell

Gotta love how one person writing a silly essay, which didn't have anything to do with atheism, just being a gaff, got turned into something very atheist and very serious.

"I'm not religious"

Can't say I've ever had to explain anything more than that.

[–] IronBird@lemmy.world 5 points 8 hours ago

i prefer "i'm not superstitious"

[–] DaMummy@hilariouschaos.com 5 points 11 hours ago (7 children)

So how will you teach little girls that they're the problem? How will you fondle little boys? How will you comitt a genocide to prove that your religion is more moral?

[–] agent_nycto@lemmy.world 4 points 10 hours ago (2 children)

You can do all of those without having to actually believe in a specific religion. And the first two happen very easily without religion.

[–] Mirshe@lemmy.world 1 points 3 hours ago

The last also happens in the absence of religious motivation quite a bit.

And the piracy, of course.

I believe it's impossible to prove the existence of two gods.

I'm a diagnostic.

I don't drink tea.

This is very offensive to me. I'm Eastern Orthodox, that's not spaghetti that's lo-mein with fish balls. Heathen degenerate.
