I find it odd that when filling out a form that asked me what my religion is one of the choices is Atheist.
What now? That is the that opposite of religion.
I am a literal ordained Dudist priest. I can, and even have, legally marry people. Because America is fucking crazy and makes this incredibly easy.
If you’re in the United States, the current situation decided by the judges is that Atheists have to argue as if they’re a religion as well.
A lot of work will be needed to fix this error.
If you and your friends can argue that you have a prayer meeting spot for the spaghetti monster.
It’s like a cheat code to get a judge to actually listen to how Christians are discriminating against your religion.
The closest I have to religion is naturalist, which is to say based on the data I have, I can’t find any evidence anywhere of supernatural effects, and while I haven’t personally done the looking, the scientific consensus is that there’s nothing, even when it comes to religious investigators actively looking for evidence of the stuff they expect to see.
To date, there are some pretty high bounties on evidence of various kinds of spooky shit that remain unclaimed.
Of course, I don’t know this to be the case. The simulation hypothesis has not been ruled out, which would allow for effects we cannot detect. It doesn’t stop me from worshiping my cat. (Cat-huffing. It’s a thing.) And it raises questions whether we are the same person when we wake up after non-REM sleep, or a new iteration of the identity. (The transporter paradox). But so far, the most likely explanation is we’re material girls living in a material world.
In my opinion, if somebody states that there’s something spooky going on, then the onus is on them to provide evidence and prove what they’re saying. I don’t have to do anything.
Don’t we have spooky quarks? I know we have strange ones, and charm quarks… Feels like we should have spooky quarks.
“isn’t it spooky how all the evidence just ups and dissapppears when you look at it?!”
I’m fine with it on like a drop down or a form. No need to make things needlessly complicated. It’s basically ‘none’ except it’s clear. ‘none’ could be misleading, atheist is exact.
Just put Pastafarianism
