What is the '-ism' for when you don't buy any of the religions that exist in the world right now but you're still pretty sure there's something god-like or 'deific' out there?
>>17270206Why do you think there's something god-like out there?What evidence is there to support that idea?
>>17270206Deism?
>>17270206Ietsism
>>17270206Deism. It’s vauge, obviously. But it’s definition is a belief in God regardless or contrary to Religious views and claims.
>>17270211None, it's just a hunch I have.
>>17270239If I have a hunch that unicorns live underground on Mars, does that mean it's likely that they do?
>>17270268
>>17270206Deism
>>17270289You can have a hunch about anything, but that doesn't mean your hunch is correct.
>>17270421
>>17270425That's not an argument
>>17270447Bro you're actually so mad right now.
>>17270206what you have is called "being vaguely superstitious but also retarded"if god or gods existed, why would they not make themselves known through personal or mass revelation, which would then serve as the basis for the formation of a legitimate religion?
>>17270522>why would they not make themselves known through personal or mass revelationwhy wouldn't they?
>>17270268>>17270421honestly who cares if you believe something thats not proven but not falsifiable. hate faggots like this. if you think that Everything you believe is true, due to whatever, youre delusional
>>17270530you mean why would they. i agree. btw they have throughout history but these retards dont care. theyve already made up their minds. not just talking about jesus
>>17270530>why wouldn't they?That's what I'm asking, so I'm assuming you mean the opposite, as in why would a god make contact with humans.And the answer to that is simple, if what you're talking about here is a progenitor deity (most religions have a cosmogonic component) then they created humanity for a particular, often important purpose, and it can be inferred that they have strong feelings towards us in some capacity.If you believe that human life and the world developed independent of a "god," then what you're thinking of isn't god or spirituality at all, you're just imagining some kind of powerful space alien creature.
hylics be like >>17270268
>>17270206Secularism.
>>17270421It does if it's a parable for an observed phenomenon.
>>17270456No I'm not and you haven't refuted what I said>>17270574Cope and cry faggot>>17270632Not an argument, I accept your concession>>17270894So the story of God is just a parable and God doesn't literally exist? If only more religious people would admit this
>>17271720literally seething a full day later
>>17270206Spiritual, but not religious
>>17270206Copeism
In psychology Freud coined the term "id". "id" is psychologically pretty much the same concept as god (boundless, beyond time, beyond space, all inclusive). There "id" is the first stage of human developement.
>>17273344What are you smoking bro, I want some of it
>>17273360Psychotic mania mixed with periods of sanity.Years of NEETdom with selfreflection and learning about niche interests trough the internet. A collection of mental illnesses (autism, masochism, narcissism, childhood abuse trauma), some intelligence and unfettered internet access. Rounded all off with 2 psilocybin experiences, broadening my associative horizon. God is teaching me, us all
>>17273394God bless, I'm feeling like picking up some more dex when I get paid. That's my psychedelic of choice. I'm sick of cough gels I think I'm gonna try these
