Is one of the most narcissistic ideologies ever. Imagine the most powerful entity and you’ve decided for it that you’re an important part of its world. Imagine if ants did that to us…

    Here’s a real unpopular online opinion:

    The follies of organized religions don’t invalidate sincere faith and devotion to a higher power. Just because there are narcissists who believe a supreme creative intelligence pays particular attention to a specific religious group, doesn’t mean that behavior is representative of every person who believes in a supreme creative intelligence.

    Online atheists have a nasty habit of reductively lumping all religious belief in with the most egregious examples. I should know, I used to do it.

      It’s still a mental illness and should be treated as such.

        Is it? Panpsychism is a reasonably plausible hypothesis to explain subjective consciousness.
