I think humans are just wired to try and make order in the world around them. Theism, conspiracytheorism, an impulse to collect stamps and sort them chronologically: It all comes from largely the same impulse. So does trying to push our human perspective down over the universe. If we think like this then, surely, so must the universe. We won't accept it just being an unexplainable weird thing that just is. I think it's very possible that reality cannot be explained.

I'd rather have an actual convo. Sorry about that.

I do think that people desire understanding of their world to the degree that they can live comfortably in it and that theism is absolutely used to bridge that gap for a lot of the unpredictable elements of life.

Ja, guess you just don't understand the word atheist, in all of its uses mate. Your world view on stuff like this is not the be all/end all. Stop glamming yourself.



Pretentious comeback in 5... 4... 3... 2...
Curious if you know what things like burden of proof and null hypothesis mean or how logic works.

You need to brush up on your Spanish. You obviously don’t know what “adios” means.
