What is Religion, a discussion with an AI.

On that ☝️ note, any/all positive claims/assertions you willfully opt to put forth going forward in a 'debate' forum, will be without any merit whatsoever, and summarily dismissed as BS.
there is no difference when you dismiss positive claims that do have evidence and you did some cherry picking. so there really is no debate just cognitive bias on your part
 
Yeah, well...you know, haters gonna hate...
I suppose so. It started off as a nice philosophical discussion about religion vs religious. Whether Atheism is or can be one or both of these.

Then it got personal and unpleasant. For example, @Thor ismeandyou probably could have skipped the comment about "filthy rotten tricks". That's where it started going downhill.
 
Yep, the hatred for atheists has been displayed across two threads. It's off the rails.
we all know atheists are so special they can't be hated for anything right? in fact let's not stop there and just put a person in prison then a guillotine for their hatred shall we?

I'm like you more than you think actually. I believe in God. And I think Atheism is, or can be akin to religion.

I just don't like angry posters chucking bombs and starting flame wars.
 
lol...your bias is showin', maybe tuck that back in...
You write like a third grader.

The OP presents evidence that disputes his claims. When notified of this, his response is

yawn your filthy rotten tricks won't work on me
Hatred. Ignorant and bigoted.

Your grade school taunts are borne of petulance. How embarrassing for you.

The shitposting is really boring, man. This is why you're getting shitposts in return. You haven't discussed anything. You hate atheists, don't like to be told you're wrong, and you chose this forum to express this. The whining is pathetic. This is an adult forum. If you can't take the heat, go to the kid's table.

You used the word "fuzzball." Your postings are whacked. Good luck to ya.

The point was a valid one. You posted an AI conversation that seemed to contradict your thread thesis about atheism being a religion, without explanation why.

When people asked you about it, instead of explaining, you got quite defensive.

I was curious about it myself. I even tried to help resolve the apparent contradiction in post #41
 
you guys made a claim and didn't give me any details why it was contradictory i do not beleive there is a contradiction in any way

but the main point is that i can tell when people are messing with me. usually when people make a claim of a contradiction it is a lie.
 
I asked the AI oracle about it.

can a person be religious about secular things?

AI said:​


Yes, people can be deeply committed or dedicated to secular things in a way that resembles religious devotion. This often manifests in areas such as politics, environmentalism, social causes, or even hobbies and interests. For example, someone might approach environmental activism with a fervor and dedication akin to religious devotion, feeling a profound sense of purpose and commitment to their cause. In these cases, the values, rituals, and community aspects associated with religious practice can be mirrored in their dedication to secular pursuits.

Still not equatable with actual religion because that requires a “God”.
 
I really hate it when people ask me for proof. Those people simply will not accept any. And i will never cooperate.

Thank you for admitting in the front end that you have neither objective, reality-based evidence nor proof of a “God”. That solves a lot as regards discussion.
