It resembles truth because you want to believe it does

It makes you happy

It helps you cope

Retarded line of logic

It says nothing about *truth*

Simply what YOU want truth to be

Do you understand?

truth seems to be an unrelated topic

No it's not

We're talking about the effectiveness of emotion in debates

In this case the existence of god

It is utterly useless

but im not talking about god

w t f

Then get out of the conversation

???

I'm not arguing two people on different topics at the same time

Wait your turn

I am stating that sometimes people believe in something before is has been 'proven' by reason. It is therefore possible to resemble truth through emotion, a hypothesis formed by intuition.

Sometimes people believe in things that are later proven

That's just confirmation bias

It says nothing about whether it is true

If I was some guy in 1000 ad

For some reason my emotions told me germs exist

I can't reasonably claim they exist without proof

There is some intuitive wisdom in emotion.

That's called confirmation bias

That's called a gamble gone right

A gamble

Nothing else

Right now I can also assume Tengri exists

Or Allah exists

While others claim other gods exist

Based on faith alone

One person will be right

There's no reason why you should gamble

That's not reason

That's called placing bets

There are two realities: your internal reality, and an external reality

The only one that you can prove exists, prove to yourself I mean, is your internal one.

Because guess what even if my emotions told me germs exist there are probably thousands of other claims that other things exist from faith and emotions
