[split] Hello everyone

My point was that a pair of opposites cannot be conceived to exist without the other and so it is not possible to be an atheist without denying to be a theist first.

Non-sequtuir. The existence of opposites doesn't mean one starts at X and then goes to anti-X. Consider the opposites happiness and sadness. One can start of as neither happy or sad but indifferent. Plus, we find opposites in nature like the electron vs the positron. The electron doesn't start as positron the latter becomes an electron. The exist as seperate entities that will annihilate each other when they meet.

And so then you can be a Catholic but you cannot be an acatholic without understanding what it means to be a Catholic. Of course you can be other than Catholic as generic protestant similar to those who walked away from the bread of life in John 6:66 as presented to them in John 6:56.

Of course you can be acatholic without knowing anything about catholicism. Putting an 'a' in front of a word catholic is equavilent to saying not catholic. So a buddhist is an acatholic. A hindu is an acatholic. etc... So if you have some other belief that is not catholic, you are an acatholic. Just like you are an abuddhist, an ahinduist, etc...
