Paganism Is The New Atheism
i still don’t think we can prove there is no god, which is the definition of agnosticism. but, i also don’t believe there is a god, which is the definition of atheism. the two are not points on a sliding scale of belief or unbelief; they are orthogonal and describe different attributes of belief or lack thereof.The reality is pretty simple and yet, you Harvard-educated morons can’t seem to grasp such a simple concept. Can you please name any president in the history of the United States, any congressman or woman, any supreme court justice, or anybody else in the position to influence policy and decisions such as allowing same-sex marriage, that subscribe to no religion?!!?!? Maybe that is why they ascend to the positions of influence that they do, and the pagans who believe in nothing will not.
Your opinion is irrelevant and will continue to be so. Keep believing that your opinion is correct. It won’t make a bit of difference in enforcing real change. The people who are in a position of influenece and the vast majority of citizens of the United States who matter aren’t pagans like the liberal lunatics where you live.Originally posted as a comment by Michelle on The Chicktionary using Disqus.
There are two possibilities:
- This girl is a troll.
- This girl is actually this ignorant.
For her own sake, I hope it’s the former. (Though I do delight in being called a “pagan.”)
I’ve noticed that my atheism has become more militant in the past year, no doubt in part due to the influence of Kennedy and Patrick. It’s unimaginable to me that I used to describe myself as agnostic. Now I can say with certainty that it’s neither possible to perform a virgin birth nor survive after being swallowed by a whale.
that said, if i could make myself believe anything, i would totally be a neo-pagan. neo-paganism seems pretty fun, as religions go. alas, contrary to what some people bizarrely claim, you cannot actually choose your beliefs, at all.
