- Reading: Atheism in Gensokyo
Since traditional Japanese religions are present in Gensokyo and entire beings such as Kanoko and Suwako being made out of "Faith" how would an atheist epidemic affect Gensokyo.
Would it just not happen, would it destroy all of gensokyo, or would nothing happen.
Gods die and go back to being nameless, either that or they're perma-del'd if the villagers cast aside Shintoism as a whole.

I would think the existence of the supernatural would be an easy thing to prove in Gensokyo...

Japanese don't believe in god but fairy.

Atheists count as +0 not -1 faith.
Unless they convince the human village into not believing anymore nothing will happen.

DnD had this, and it was fucking dumb. It's dumb now, and you're dumb for implying it's possible.

How can you be an atheist in a land where a god could come to your house and beat you into submission for saying that there are no gods?
>>14639989
An atheist in Gensokyo is impossible. Apatheist is more likely.
You cannot be an atheist when gods come to your house and invite you to a party.

But it's possible, you just need to say Gensokyo "gods" are just powerful creatures that feed on belief to survive but not actual gods.
>>14640589
But in the polytheistic context of Gensokyo that is the very definition of a god. You cannot reasonably define something as a god and then reject its status as one.
