Knowing what people are talking about does not make anything a reality.
If people are talking about "Babe Ruth being a baseball immortal" .... does that in fact make him immortal ?
You seem to be under the impression that declaring victory is the same as actually winning an argument. LMAO
(As I stated above) knowing generally what someone is talking about, does not make the claims they are making true.
If that were true, EVERY scientist's claims who ever made claims about a subject they were found to be WRONG on would be as valid as the side which was found to be true.
Ignosticism as a position, has many adherents. No one has to accept the Third Grade definitions of the gods, (of all places here ... that's hilarious). Saying it's "utterly defeated" is a delusional as Trump saying he's worth 10 billion dollars. If Ignostocism works for some ... it works.
People get to label themselves however they chose. If testosterone-filled idiots need to turn it into a win-lose, it's nothing but a measure of their personal insecurity.
Every religion is true one way or another. It is true when understood metaphorically. But when it gets stuck in its own metaphors, interpreting them as facts, then you are in trouble. - Joseph Campbell
