Polytheism vs. Monotheism
#27
RE: Polytheism vs. Monotheism
With the rationality of an idiotheist?

Well if I'm an idiotic monotheist who reads, say, the Bible or the Koran, I'll be most probably be partial to that, and consider one God more probable...

If I'm an idiotic polytheist like say, an idiotic Hindu (I don't know many forms of polytheism really lol) on the other hand, then I'll most probably be partial to polytheism, and hence believe in many Gods.

But that should go without saying. If I was a theist I wouldn't have evidence on my side as far as I know, so I'd have to be in favour of whatever I believed... so if I'm a polytheist I'd believe in many, if I'm a monotheist I'd believe in one.

This is all obvious stuff that should go without saying. So I really don't know how on earth you expect me to answer your question if I am to not state the obvious like above, and I also have to suspend rationality/evidence!

If you're asking me to suspend rationality/evidence you're basically asking me to spout meaningless nonsense, and I consider that pointless, ultimately gratuitous, and even perhaps misleading.

As for your point about be being 'Too serious a person in general', I'd wager you 1. As absolutely wrong. I can be a fucking silly idiotic, at at least ostensibly to onlookers, 'over-enthusiastic' twat too you know? You may notice that if you read more of my posts!

And seriously though... if you are expecting me to find something funny right now... DID I MISS A FUCKING JOKE?! LOL

lmfao

You're just asking me to discern whether monotheism and polytheism is more probable, and yet you expect me to do with this whilst suspending rationality and evidence! Well, I'm sorry, I consider that to be pretty much a totally impossible task. And even if it were not impossible, how would I even know if I'd got it right... unless I judge with my rationality and evidential mindset?

I've already answered your question several times. Sorry if you don't like my response!! What on earth do you expect I answer with ??????????
