What would you think is the demographic of religions on /his/?Preface:I understand that my terminology is pretty vague and does generalise a bit, but for the sake of simplicity I have done it like this.When I put () around something its just what I think is the most popular.I will start:Non-religious: 50%Religious: 40%Agnostic: 10%Non-religious:(reductive) Physicalism: 80%(Subjective) Idealism: 10%Non-dual: 4%other:6%Religious:(Substance) dualism: 50%Non-dual: 20%Panpsychist: 15%Idealism: 10%Other: 5%Religions:Christianity: 60%[Protestant/evangelical: 40%, Catholic: 20%, eastern/oriental orthodox: 10%, non-dom:20, other:10]Islam: 15%[Sunni: 80%, Shia: 20%]Eastern: 10%Pagan: 5%other: 10%
>>18479881It's very clear that American Christianity, evangelical Christianity, fundementalist Christianity, TradLARP Christianity, and Yankees doing LARPaganism are all massively overrepresented here.Personally I believe in the God of Spinoza, Hegel, etc.Which is to say God is synonymous with reality, the universe, and we are therefore all God experiencing existence from individual perspectives.Reality, is non-dualistic, monist, deterministic. There is only one substance which in as far as we can test it adheres to materialist, physical laws but is also universal, all encompassing, which is the Geist of the universe.
>>18479886I hold to Neoplatonic Monism philosophical idealism although I am open to change. Also is it just me but has physicalism/naturalism just sky rocketed this past month on /his/? I have only seen 1 other person point this out.
>>18479893It hasn’t. There are a few diehard redditoids that keep making a “physicalist general” and spamming philosophy threads with their posts. They are quite tenacious, cross-reference each other to make it seem like they are larger than they are, spam post, and will not hesitate to swarm threads. Their arguments display a clear lack of education in philosophy, but it’s all buried underneath the usual 4chan ad hominem and trolling.If this board had actual moderation the physicalist general and most modern philosophy threads would be removed and relegated to /lit/. Even most religion threads wouldn’t survive the purge. It’s worth noting that there was a time a few months ago when the same anons who create physicalism-shilling posts (yes, it’s the same ones) tried to do so on /lit/ and got clowned on by everyone there with dead threads. /lit/ has materialists, but they subscribe to historical (Marxist) materialism as opposed to the autistically reductive anti-philosophical physicalism of these redditoids.
>>18480082Yea I assumed so, I per say have nothing against physicalists personally although I completely and fundamentally disagree with them.But I when I saw the "/phg/ - physicalism general" I was a bit confused, as for one, what is even the point of the general? Discuss physicalism? What is there to Discuss, doesn't seem that interesting, there is only so much you can talk about until you just repeat yourself. Then I decided to check it out and realised the true reason. Op really only made this thread to virtually masterbait about his theory of mind and for attention, this is evident because he made the same thread 3 times (and he is very self obsessed >>18478762) , the 3rd one was made when not much people was posting on 2nd one; normally I wont not call this out, but he is extremely rude and arrogant and not doing this in good faith in the slightest there is also a reason why literally everyone called him a faggot when he made the general. This is also why I don't really post on religious threads and only stick to historical one, both parties are just extremely bad faithBut back to the list. I think I should of increased the amount of Christians and decrees the amount of Catholics and orthodox, as the only type of Christians here are the evangelical ones which just say enjoy hell when you say something the disagree with, also I should of increased the amount of dualists in the Religious categories
