Atheism

Tuesday, November 28th, 2006

Thank god I’m an atheist.

I said that once, thinking it was pretty funny. I asked Kevin Sanders if he thought it was pretty funny. He kind of paused for a bit, looking maybe a bit not getting it, and I said come on man think about it and then the light of comprehension dawned and he did think it was pretty funny. Oxymoronic in fact.

Not his word.

Still, atheism by definition and common use is not believing in supreme beings or a being. Really though it has more to do with not adhering to simplistic supernatural suspension of disbelief and blind faith.

Deism is also interesting.

Neither have anything to do with what I am on about. Truth. Fact. The Is.

A new term is needed.

Truthist. Truthism. Hey Colbert I was here long ago so don’t get all bent about originality.
