Ignosticism, Theism, or Gnostic Atheism

RE: Ignosticism, Theism, or Gnostic Atheism
(January 31, 2022 at 8:37 am)The Grand Nudger Wrote: If a person doesn't believe in gods, they aren't going to believe that people are gods either, now are they?  Seems like a silly question in context, as it's not an issue for theism, ignosticism, or gnostic atheism.  That people exist is hardly in question, nor is it the item of contention between the positions.  We use a different term for people who worship other people.  Yet another example of how the set of gods is intelligible and recognizable from other sets of things a person might worship.
Well I don't believe in Odin, Vishnu, Krishna, Thor, Zeus, etc. any of that stuff, and I still think humans can be deified, or "put on a pedestal", so to speak. I would consider "human worship" far more sensible than the worship of mythological figures.
