What's the justification for being agnostic?
>>9248624
>still not understanding that proof is absolutely unattainable and completely irrelevant to faith
>implying ability to appreciate the beauty of specific art without having faith is special
>implying realizing societal functions of religion are completely separate from theistic beliefs is special
Ah, to be 15 and post frogs on anime forum.
>>9248632
Why do you assume agnostics are more afraid of death than atheists? I accept that oblivion is a possibility, and if that is the case, it won't bother me once it happens.

Prove that God exists :^)
>>9248515
You can only be theist or agnostic. Atheism is a logical inconsistency.
>>9248888
Not really. Atheism essentially looks at the idea of a God and says "that seems unlikely, so I think not."
The agnostic goes like "it is indeterminable if God exists or not," which isn't necessarily exclusive of atheism or theism.

I fucking hate твёpдый знaк. I don't even fully understand how it works... and I've been studying russian for a couple of years.
>>9248969
it usually just "softens" the sound of the preceding consonant
really case-dependent
you'd have to listen to recordings of native speakers for illustrations, hard to put into text
it's a vestigial piece of shit orthography, no doubt

But I'm forced to live and am left without enough time to write. Wat do?

>>9248969
It works exactly like мягкий знaк except you don't palatalize the previous consonant. Orthographically it carries the same function a space would without breaking the word up. Step it up, filthy capitalist pig. Props for being autistic enough to learn Russian, though,
>>9248991
No, "hard sign" doesn't soften the consonant. That's why it's hard and not soft.
Convince me.
I want to believe, but I've seen no evidence that the supernatural is real.
>>9248642
Truth is unknowable. Le Hitchens Dawkins religion debate is cringe on both sides.
>>9249007
You're already half way to truth; don't squander your gains. Why do you want to believe?
>>9248379
Sure thing but first you must tell me this: where are the proofs?
>>9248379
Already did, I'm currently agnostic and am increasingly leaning towards Deism.
>>9248379
No one on /lit/ is an atheist.

Go fuck yourself, OP.

>le I have no faith cus no proof meme
Faith by definition forgoes empirical evidence.
>>9250896
No problem esé.
>>9251181
Okay, let me put it this way.
I have no faith because believing in things without any indication at all that they might be true is fucking stupid.
>>9249007
Belief in God is based on faith.
There would be no point if there was empirical evidence for His existence.
>>9251191
Empiricist get thee gone
Could some provide a good case for, down the line after the study that it requires is complete, converting to Judaism? I already find more synergy with it than Christanity but I none-the-less need more knowledge.

>le fuckin stupid retards haha SCIENCE bithc

>>9251209
>>9251199
So everyone throughout history who believed they had proved God's existence decided to abandon their faith as it was now pointless. Seems legit you modernist retarded running in fear of science.

I already said that I realize the contributions Christianity has made to Western civilization. It's influence from Greek philosophy really is incredible. To me, it serves the function as a noble lie that encourages ethical behavior among the citizens. No other religion has done this quite as efficient as Christianity. And imho, no other religion is as beautiful.

I think you might have these opinions purely because you were born in a western country.
