So who here genuinely doesn't care if god exists or not? If so what is this called?
>>29367430
>If so what is this called?
autism
>>29367430
I guess passive atheism
>>29367446
we should really stop using that word so much before the normies start using it. or maybe they've already had, i don't know.
>>29367430
>what is this called?
being an fgt, being too stupid for philosophy, being too much of a cuck to have your own opinion, agnosticism
pick one (or don't. you genuinely don't care)
>>29367430
It's called nihilism. You are now enlightened
>>29367430
being an edgy 14 year old who watches alternative humor, supports bernie/hillary and thinks he is smarter than everyone
>>29367430
Isn't that was agnosticism is about?
>>29367489
>wew lad
Maybe pick up a book before posting?
>>29367489
this.
once you realize nothing matters, it's much easier to "just be yourself".

pic related is who you think you are trust me you'll grow out of it once you turn 18
>>29367479
yea i'm gonna say the latter but who knows since i can admit that i'm actually not really smart and at times pretty pretentious
>>29367495
i would assume that would just fit in the category of a complete atheist
actually there is a name for this its called apatheism
>>29367446
>>29367479
>>29367495
>God fags being this mad
>>29367430
It's called apatheism; it's a conjunction of apathy and theism i.e. being apathetic about God's existence or non-existence.
>>29367489
Nihilism is the claim that life or existence is without meaning, but a nihilist could still be a theist or an atheist.
>>29367513
It's not agnosticism, because that's the claim that God's existence is unknowable, but a person could still care about it.
>>29367527
Actually, perhaps you should pick up a book, my friend. Sartre, kierkagaard, camus, they all had similiar notions. And you're the tard that thinks nietche is a nihilist. Get literate.
>>29367513
>>29367455
You both seem right about this but something just still feels off
>>29367569
>Nihilism is the claim that life or existence is without meaning
Then why breath you fucking retard?
>>29367590
you're a smart guy, my friend.
>>29367553
>apatheism
This essentially is the exact definition of my question but something about still seems vague.
>>29367547
>i can admit that i'm actually not really smart and at times pretty pretentious
"latter", I'm pretty sure, can only be used when referring to second of two subjects listed, not the last of several subjects listed
(I am not overly smart and am overly pretentious too)
>>29367558
I'm not a godfag, but I respect theists ten times more than I respect agnostics. In my experience theists tend to be much more knowledgeable about theology than atheists and agnostics usually don't even know what theology is.
I respect knowledge and I respect having coherent opinions or beliefs. I don't respect conformism or fedora-tipping.
>>29367590
Did I claim that I'm a nihilist? No I didn't; I reported another person's position. Learn to read you fucking nigger.
>>29367615
>Did I claim that I'm a nihilist
Did I claim you did? All I did was prove you fucking wrong. If you're a nihilist there's no reason to be alive so stop saying shit like that, retard.
>all these pathetic idiots calling it apatheism, nihilism, PASSIVE (???) atheism, agnosticism or whatever
It's called Ignosticism, anon.
Hawkings is one of them.
>>29367590
nihilists do what they want because there is no meaning. If they want to kill themselves, then they do. Why is it that you feel without a meaning that only possible thing to do is commit suicide?
>>29367613
I never knew that, I've only heard it a couple of times with one of my teachers in school and I guess never fully understood it
Thanks for the correction
>>29367613
theology is the most laughable pseudofield out there its totally worthless to gain "knowledge" of it
>Wont be alive to enjoy the Koima rusecruise
>>29367615
Sorry, I misread you. I thought the sentence "Then why breathe you retard" was directed at me, and not directed at a hypothetical nihilist.
>>29367646
youre wrong apatheism is correct youre terms stands for people who find the question of gods existence meaningless because god it isnt precisely defined
apatheism is the position that you just dont care just like op
>>29367680

I replied to my own post instead of yours, because I'm a retard.
>>29367654
>nihilists do what they want because there is no meaning
Did you even read what I fucking said? You contradicted yourself in your own 'sentence' if you don't care about living and see it as meaningless, then you wouldn't breath and you would die. You're not a true nihilist and an edgy satanist/atheist fedorafag so you wouldn't get that you fucking retard. Take a philosophy class?

Wew lad
>>29367613
>conformism
Ironic, since religion itself is a form of conforming or indoctrination
Most people who are religious are religious just for the sake of being religious. They don't even practice properly and go against a lot of the there teachings.
Just say you respect people who are philosophical.

No.
Ignosticism.
>>29367646
>>29367707
This, ignosticism is the claim that God isn't verifiable, and therefore claims about God's existence have no truth value. It was originally put forward by AJ Ayer.
>>29367664
>pseudofield
Just because it isn't science doesn't mean it's pseudo- anything. It's a discipline within philosophy with hundreds of important books written on it and with teachings about it made by philosophers nobody would call pseudo-.
Like most philosophy, it's based on logic, not faith.
All atheists should at least get some basic understanding of the subject. Personally, I find it fascinating and compelling, even though I, as I've said, have no belief in god and reject it as a concept.
The fact that you hate books and find it easier to REEEEEEE at something because you personally disagree with the conclusion than to study it and make your own coherent thoughts on the subject does not make you superior to anyone, especially not someone who, religious or not, took the time to study the subject.
>>29367760
Nah.
Ignostiscism.
>>29367795
I see what you did there, nice bait, you got me.
Are animals Ignostics? Apatheists?
>>29367859
they are animals(?)
>>29367859
animals aren't -gnostic anything
It's called atheism
You can either be an atheist or a theist, there is nothing else, it's a binary, you either believe or you don't believe
>>29367859
they are atheist -- they don't believe in a god
>>29368015
>It's called oversimplifying
>>29367713
Not him, but you don't understand nihilism. Once you unterstand that a life without meaning can be something good nihilism is a very life-positive philosophy. It teaches self-sufficiency and responsibility for each other, not because a god says so but because the people understand that they want/need it.
>>29368015
>it's a binary
>faith
>binary
>average Christfags and average non-religious people don't have moments of doubt
>you cannot become more religious or less religious based on what life throws at you
>faith is about waking up in the morning one day and saying "boy, I'm officially a *(ir)religious belief* now
(of course- that's exactly how it is for radical Christfags and radical fedora-tippers, but these are autists who make up a marginal part of the population. Everyday people have fluid views on faith.)
Nice bait, made me reply.
>>29368046
No it really is that simple
>>29368015
Uh, no. Agnistics are the inbetween.
H8 ur b8 m8 3/8
>>29368096
agnostics are atheists cause they don't believe in god
>>29368034
To believe you have to be able to understand the concept first. And we can't know what animals see as the meaning in life because we can't communicate with them properly.
Maybe they have some concept of after-life, atleast some apes, elephants, whales and such understand death.
>>29368015
It seems binary because our logic is based on grammar, which is indeed binary.
Other languages have different grammars and maybe a logic that relies on three of more options.

I grew up in an atheist family so the idea of there beeing no god is really nothing new to me. People who talk about god existing or not existing like they've just discovered the holy grail of philosophy amuse me. I really coudn't give a fuck either way. i've contemplated all the possible conumdrums by now and i'll never know the real answer

Existence if god aside, theology is still a god starting point for finding morals to base your behaviour on.

You are both dumb and enlightened.
"Apatheism" seems to be the trendy new term, but it's even more fedora than the most fedora brand of atheism.
I just say "non-religious" and leave it at that. If people really feel the need to inquire about it further, I wouldn't mind explaining it to them, but in my experience most people are incapable of having a civilized discussion about anything remotely associated with religion or politics.
>>29368344
>>29368316
yeah so is philosophy. In fact i'd say philosophy is better
>>29368269
>People who talk about god existing or not existing like they've just discovered the holy grail of philosophy amuse me
well, me too. Theology is hardly the pinnacle of philosophy. I'm just saying it's an important part of it and you kinda need to get the basics if you wanna get philosophy at all
Then again you don't really need to get philosophy at all so...whatever floats your boat.
