Can you demonstrate why I should accept anything other than what is material as real?

Apologists are like customer service representatives. They’re not there to try and attract you to actually believe, just to keep their loyal believers keeping on believing. I would love to hear an actually interesting argument for theism.

A puddle looks around and admires the crevices in the sidewalk perfectly put it in place, as if this sidewalk was intelligently designed for the puddle specifically. Now if I tell this to theists but they still make an intelligent design argument referencing universal constants, how do you respond?

Based on my last skeet I am sure you can gleam my confusion, but can someone explain to my feeble mind what the McTaggart argument for Unrealness of time is? ELI5

ChatGPT just told me to interrupt the “fuck it” moment for advice on quitting my nasty snack addiction. Maybe I’ll be better now, thanks anti-privacy, data consuming algorithm.

I feel a rush and like I am flying when I hear certain pieces of music. If you get a special feeling in your bosom from Jesus maybe you could like listen to Queen instead idk

There’s such a great adage we use every day- “If it’s too good to be true, it probably isn’t true.” Why do we forget this when contemplating either material life existing and ending versus… eternal paradise in an afterlife brought about by a Palestinian Jewish philosopher 2000 years ago?

If you get into the church history/theology rabbit hole and find that turns you in towards Christianity, you do not need God. You need a hobby. You can substitute your fervor for Christology for like, The Lord of the Rings. Or you know, just understand it's just as real as The Lord of the Rings.

It is not wrong to be gay. Don’t search for a rebuttal. Any “rebuttal” you will find is straw-manned bigotry thrown into a trench-coat disguised as science.

In the U.S., a QAnon conspiracist/loyalist to Trump is being put in charge of the FBI. He is spouting claims of shutting everything down, firing everyone, "cleansing the deep state." Tell me, how will this benefit the average American citizen? Or is this just to score brownie points with Donald?

Holding the YouTube App open with a video running while I walk, I bump into a button or two and look at my screen asking to confirm a 320¥ payment for a Super Chat. Something is just gross about this level of efficiently made consumerism.

4 cars park side by side. They are in order of color blue white black and red. The first letter of each license plate, in the above order, spells out “JAKE” As an ardent Jake-ist, I don’t see how you can deny his existence now. #godisreal

Near 300 followers— thank you! I will continue to bring secular ideas for men to help be a tide against the wave of rightwing pipeline content farms.

“Everything in moderation” is a great saying but for theists there is a large exception— their god idea. This is where they reserve gluttony and zealousness and don’t just excuse it but laud it. To them, it’s good to bury your car in Jesus bumper stickers, not tacky.

Theist: I have divine justified knowledge, atheists don't. You can't know anything. Me: How do you know you have divine justified #knowledge? Theist: Runs circular_argument.exe

When it works it’s intelligent design, when it doesn’t work, it’s… Swept under the rug.

Positive masculinity: planting trees for the next generation you won’t live to see. Toxic masculinity: denying climate change. Men, when you veer right, don’t forget you’re also destroying the planet for those you hope to hand it too.

Don’t like to do too much self promotion, but the last video I have talks on the pragmatism for understanding reality- this is how Pascal’s wager works and how materialism works. Hope you enjoy my explanation youtu.be/Z9n8UATgb8g

Free from the restraints of dogmatism in religion, I look forward to the day when I can tell my children “that’s your right” and “that’s your freedom,” when it comes to challenges of their identity, their sexuality, or their bodily autonomy. This is what it means to be a good man and father.

To the secular young men— keep doing what you’re doing. Losing purpose if you had religion previously is scary, but the new beauty of understanding we’re alone in this existence is that we craft our own beliefs and meaning. Always ask questions and keep investigating.

Even if your #religion was true how can I know which flavor is correct? With #Christianity I feel at odds for even trying to move towards Jesus when it could be Catholicism or Orthodoxy or Coptic Orthodoxy or Baptists or Calvinists or Lutherans or Methodists or Seventh Day Adventist… one “truth”?

Just had a large atheist vs. agnostic debate on Discord... And I don't know why Agnostics turn off their critical lense when it comes to establishing frameworks of philosophy. Would love to have an honest conversation here-- I think these folks were just looking to be aggro for bloodsport sake.
