    I’m a soulist, not a solipsist. Solipsism is passive. Solipsists can’t do anything with faith that it will make the world a better place. Soulists can do more than realists can, because of our faith. https://soulism.net/

        And what you’re doing is ignorant, unintentional faith. The worst characteristics of religion. You can’t see past this all-powerful “real world” you’ve been taught to believe in, because you’ve built your entire identity around it.

          Did you not read this?

          I became an anti-theist after many years of being a deist. I am familiar with at least one non-Abrahamic theistic belief (deism).

          Or this?

          I am not appealing to an “objective truth”. I’m appealing against the solopsism and nihilism required to believe something you know is unfalsifiable. If you can’t know something is true, be honest with yourself and others. Your position on the matter should be “it cannot be proven/disproven; we cannot know”. Not, “I believe in it, despite it being unfalisifiable”.

          I had a theistic worldview, just like you. It is not for a lack of experience or consideration that I became an anti-theist. Nor am I appealing to some all-encompassing, all-explaining Truth (or “real world” as you put it); that is what theists do.

          Which makes what you said:

          And what you’re doing is ignorant, unintentional faith. The worst characteristics of religion. You can’t see past this all-powerful “real world” you’ve been taught to believe in, because you’ve built your entire identity around it.

          feel a lot more like projection than engaging in a critical discussion.
