nihilism

A theist can be a nihlist as much as an atheist. Just because you believe in a higher power doesent mean you need to care about it. Theism and atheism dont hold any inherent ideology behind them. They are simply statements "i believe" or "i dont believe".

But isn't a nihilist in the "I don't believe" camp?

Nihilist is more in the "nothing has any inherent significance" camp. It's entirely possible that god is totally insignificant and meaningless to your life.

Ok, so the idea of nihilism as some sort of blanket ideology is mistaken, it's actually a bunch of different beliefs (well perhaps absence of beliefs) on different subjects. Existential nihilism asserts there is no external meaning to existence. Moral nihilism asserts there is no moral truths, Epistemological nihilism asserts that there is no true knowledge. Mereological nihilism asserts that nothing is truly a part of anything else (so the distinctions of objects as objects is entirely subjective). Political nihilism asserts that no political system has inherent validity.

this is the most basic philosophy
