I'm not a fedora atheist
I don't know that God does not exist
That's all that matters nigga
If I don't know God doesn't exist, I'm not an atheist
@Americana - MD#3916 All? I disagree that it is 'all' that matters. I believe that the faith has inherent value, and it should actually matter more to you then out doing others in the material.
As well, atheism is the lack of theism.
Atheism is the belief that God doesn't exist
Agnosticism and gnosticism relate to levels of belief and disbelief.
I am a gnostic theist/deist, **I know** there is some form of non-material existance.
But I am an agnostic to my own faith and other faiths because I can't truly be sure of it or myself.
I don't think non-material existence and atheism are incompatible
You'd be an agnostic atehist.
Not 100% sure, but I don't believe the mind is material
Otherwise free will can't exist
Not inherently, but there is a distinct difference between how atheists and theists/deists would see it.
Free will doesn't exist.
By purely material scientific methods, not really.
I'm not educated enough on philosophy to really have a debate about this
How do you know that God exists?
But... Listen to me when I say this with all my heart; the science can go choke a dick. There is much more then these atoms.
I am sure by strong, unyielding belief. Based upon universal absolutes like the golden ratio, order in a world which we have come to see infinite in lies.
Yeah, I know.
When I talk about science in the way of material... It's just different. I'll find a different word.
Materialism works fine.
>I know because I believe

Faith.
Brother. I have meditated for years and took shrooms and LSD and am still a National Socialist. Me and you aren't the same. We are not equal. I can still be your friend, but you must understand underskin we are not the same
If you're a non white that is
Faith can literally apply to any idea that is not something you can experience by sense
; )
But again faith is not really justified
Not justified to you.
It's just an irrational, baseless hope that something exists, without reason or empirical evidence
It's not justified to me because I don't buy into it
@Deleted User That ain't true either.
The white race, the African race, the Asian race.
THey aren't real.
It's groups **underneath** them that are real.
Faith is the psychological compensation to deal with the discrepancies between hope and reason.
white just means European descent
