Nor a Buddhists because they both believe in cognitively biased nonsense.
Neither of these cognitively biased atheistic and theistic religions understand consciousness.
Both have allegiances with each other though because there is a statue of Shiva outside the religious cult of atheismâs scientific HQ in CERN near Geneva.
Wrong! ..the giant Shiva statue was gifted to CERN.. and thatâs not the only thing that CERN got from India, but if you donât know, you donât know..
Yeah ..whateverâŚwe know exactly where mainstream cognitively biased +=- and -=+ philosophy scienceâs allegiances lie and it doesnât hide the fact.Itâs all misguided nonsense though as we know.
Itâs all founded upon the atheistic religious philosophical guess that good=bad and bad=good.
If there is a god, this god has no legitimate contract with human beings. A human being would have to review the terms of living before agreeing to the contract and having an obligation to it. But humans are born without being consulted first, so there is no contract or obligation.
Now, indeed, a god may exist, and you may end up in hell⌠but you would not regret it. Why not. Because youâd never worship a god that forced you into a contract you were not able to review or agree to first. Such a god is incompetent or a tyrant.
Best thing to do then is do what you think is âgoodâ and ârightâ irrespective of what may actually be âgoodâ and ârightâ according to this god. If these âgoodâ and ârightâ things that you do happen to be in agreement with this god, good for him, but this does not concern you.
The righteous God doesnât force anyone to love him.
+=- and -=+ philosophy is derived from good is bad and bad is good philosophy as we all know.
The problem for atheists and theists alike is that +=- and -=+ philosophy doesnât migrate into science because attractive and repulsive electromagnetic force absolutes donât cancel out.
Therefore mainstream science can invent as many nonsense theories and forces as it wants but its philosophy is still incorrect.
Thomas Merton on Eastern religions, followed him to Sri Lanka, discovered Bede Griffiths just before he died and slowly my panentheistic universalism grew.
Both Catholics
Some Catholic thinkers have engaged with Advaita Vedanta,
No, I have spiralled out of my humble beginnings and look back on my various stages affectionately. I believe I understand where the people were when we engaged, but I have moved on, both geographically and spiritually.
All my atheist friends and acquaintances would disagree with you.. you seem to be describing Paganism rather than Atheism.. an Atheist never ponders on âwhoâ or âwhatâ a God is.. or so theyâve told me.
I was actually speaking more psychologically. Of course, it is possible that there are atheists who never give a thought to the God concept for whatever reason. I just find it hard to believe that any intelligent, seeing person can look at this universe and not attribute it to a creative, well-organized, high detailed intelligent, etcetera being.
Where do atheists believe this Universe came from?
I have been quite the agnostic, so close to being an atheist at times through my skepticism, many questions and many doubts, and I even asked myself the question at times in the past:
Seeing all of this, how can I possibly entertain the thought that there is no God?
I really do feel/intuit that it all comes down to the human heart and mind and something within us that is afraid to let go and just jump in the abyss lol and believe⌠and in actual cases, not just to believe but to know. I really feel it comes down to where we have been in our lives and who we are at our core, or to put it another way, where we really live inside ourselves.
Could there really be a true atheist?

What did they seem to hold sacred? ..very little , it seemed
Maybe change that word to mean valuable and meaningful and something close to their heart and they may come up with an answer. Watch them carefully.
