Even if theism is a failure, it's still superior to atheism

RE: Even if theism is a failure, it's still superior to atheism
(September 14, 2022 at 6:43 pm)R00tKiT Wrote: Religion or theism offer a clear solution to the dilemma: there really is a Great being who guarantees that everything you do has cosmic justice, He created you so that you can accomplish it. All non-religious worldviews clearly fail or at best offer far less appealing alternatives to solve the problem.

And if there is no such "Great being," you're just hoping for and wishing for cosmic justice but will not receive it. I prefer to find what justice I can in the real world.

Quote:A woman constantly, and subconsciously, asks for assurance, that the man wants "me" and not "only my body"...

Nope. My self-worth is independent of whether or not any other being (male or female) "wants" me. I haven't been in a relationship for years, and vastly prefer things this way.
