I DONT GIVE A FUCK WHAT ANY OF YOU BELIEVE! WHAT FUCKS ME OFF IS THE ARROGANCE OF STUPID ATHEISTS IN LABELLING THOSE WITH GNOSIS AS STUPID.
How about the
arrogance of theists who insist that everyone else should believe as they do?
And, what about the ARROGANCE of so-called "atheists" who insist that EVERY one else should BELIEVE as they do?
Or, does this NOT count when 'you' are one of 'them'?

How about all the crap labels that arrogant theists (on this forum) place on atheists?
How about all the crap labels that arrogant "atheists" (on this forum) place on "theists", like, for example, '
You have to BE STUPID to believe in God'?
Will you PROVIDE ANY examples of what 'you' SAID here "lacewing"?
If no, then WHY NOT?

These are reasonable challenges on a philosophy forum, where there are a handful of theists making varying claims about their particular view of a god. You guys can't even get the stories straight among you.
LOL
One HAS TO LISTEN BEFORE they could make such A CLAIM.
'you', "lacewing", OBVIOUSLY, do NOT LISTEN.
So, 'you', "lacewing", have NO IDEA what ACTUAL STORY or STORIES LAY BEFORE 'you'.

Why would this demonstrate any credibility to anyone other than how it serves you?
Talk about one who MAKES UP their OWN stories, which they then USE to SERVE them.
ONCE AGAIN, "lacewing" it is YOU who is DOING EXACTLY what you CLAIM "others" DO and CLAIM is WRONG.

If someone insisted through preposterous stories that a giant ladybug ruled over you, whether you believed in it or not, and they claimed your
disbelief was a sign that you were being arrogant, and you would be condemned as a result to the worst imaginable compost pile forever -- would you think that was stupid?
YES. I think it IS just as STUPID to DISBELIEVE some 'thing' EXISTS when that one has NO CLUE AT ALL as to HOW that 'thing' IS DEFINED EXACTLY.
LOL The example you PROVIDE is OBVIOUSLY False, Wrong, and Incorrect from the outset.

You can know what you know... and someone else can know what they know... and neither has to see the same, nor must they be lorded over by the other's perspective. Only men want to command others.
AND, CLAIM that "others" ARE STUPID for NOT BELIEVING what 'you' DO "lacewing" is a PRIME EXAMPLE of AGAIN 'you' DOING what 'you' CLAIM "others" DO.
'you' are CLAIMING that 'your' BELIEF LORDS OVER "other's" perspectives. 'you' CLAIM this SO MUCH that 'you' even CLAIM that "others" and their perspectives ARE STUPID.
It is ONLY people like 'you', "lacewing" who WANT to COMMAND "others".

I believe that you've had profound experiences for yourself with other entities. Well, so have I. We interpret it differently, however.
But WHY do 'you' CALL the "others" STUPID.
It is REALLY like 'you' are 'trying to' COMMAND OVER 'them', with 'your' OWN perspective/s of 'things'.

What difference does that make?
Finding out what 'it' IS, EXACTLY, instead of just BELIEVING that you ALREADY KNOW, will then HELP 'you' here.
