new "Cult of 'Non-Beliefism' " aka (the state of being "unlocked")
#1
Exclamation 
new "Cult of 'Non-Beliefism' " aka (the state of being "unlocked")
('A') A CULT WITH NO BELIEF WHATSOEVER


This new cult is NOT a religion, as it encourages the removal of all beliefs.

Belief is completely irrelevant and likely error prone.

.
.
.
.
.

('B') WE NEVER DO ABSOLUTE ACTIONS

There are many slices of time/space.

At any given point, we can only act in a distinct slice of time.

So inherently, we never make any TOTAL/ABSOLUTE actions.

So, any action we take are inherently from a sequence of OPTIMAL PROBABILITIES (where reality naturally contains many optimal ACTION-PROBABILITY mappings), rather than COMPLETE ACTIONS.



EG: bird+flying=optimal action probability mapping.
Wright brothers used this probability mapping, absent belief.


.
.
.
.
.



('C') WE DON'T REALLY BELIEVE IN ANYTHING

This means we DON'T BELIEVE when doing science (or any other task), because to BELIEVE is to accept as TRUE/ABSOLUTE.  

In science (and life in general) we rather regard optimal actions as LIKELY or SCIENTIFICALLY TRUE, rather than TRUE/ABSOLUTE.





.
.
.
.
.

('D') WE MAKE LARGER MISTAKES WHEN WE 'ATTACH'

However, when we don't embrace probabilities, and cling to belief, we tend to disregard the probabilistic process, AND THE RESULT IS THAT we don't choose the more viable PROBABILITIES from the sequences, due to erroneously ATTACHING to/regarding sequences as TRUE/ABSOLUTE, (ie BELIEVING in them.)

There are partial PROBABILITIES (from distinct time slices of the WHOLE), but of course, some PROBABILITIES are worse than others. 

BELIEF causes that persons likely cling to non-viable probabilities, due to ATTACHMENT. (ie  accept as absolute).

Furthermore, belief may be built on non-science. Of course, logic/science cannot compound on non-science. 


.
.
.
.
.

('E') WE SEE EXAMPLES, AND SCIENCE WHERE BELIEF IS NEGLECTFUL/ERROR PRONE.

So, we see that belief is redundant, and also quite error prone.

EG(0): Whether one believes in gravity or not is irrelevant.
EG(1): Theist ignore data on grounds of belief.
EG(2): Terrorism flourishes on the grounds of belief.
EG(3): Newton said God did it and therefore I can't. An atheist later solved the same issue.
EG(4): Theist tend to be inferior in intellect: http://psr.sagepub.com/content/early/201...6.abstract

Lol yay
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."

The problem with Cults, is there always seems to be a lot of work involved. You have to go pull your weight on a compound planting vegetables, or go to meetings, or give someone money. Turns out, I can not believe in things really well from my couch watching Netflix and not partaking in manual labor or talking to weirdos.

What happened to that Harry Crisner dude ? Haven't heard any one blathering about him for 25 years . . .

And that idiot bagwan, he's MIA too, seems like they could have dredged up a new bagwan by now.

where oh where has the bagwan gone ?
 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

A memberless cult. Ouch.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

OP, we're not robots, y'know...
We carry the lizard brain everywhere we go ...
It helps us make decisions subconsciously.
It tries to keep us alive long enough to not get eaten ...
To have beliefs, no matter how illogical, is to being human ...
It got us this far, hasn't it? Which means it's working fine.
Embrace your ancestral humanity ...Accept it. Love it!

If you do a quick google search, you see that cult doesn't need to be a religion.
It can simply be a movement.

We see data where religion bounds intellect/intellectual movements.

So, why would we accept this?

Does this mean terrorism [often on the grounds of belief], murder & rape [Atheists Are 0.07% of the Federal Prison Population], and ignorance is acceptable?

Sorry for the off topic.
