Lets take a little break from politics and have us a real atheist conversation.
Personally, I’m open to the idea of the existence of supernatural phenomena, and I believe mainstream religions are actually complicated incomplete stories full of misinterpretations, misunderstandings, and half-truths.
Basically, I think that these stories are not as simple and straightforward as they seem to be to religious people. I feel like there is a lot more to them. Concluding that all these stories are just made up or came out of nowhere is kind of hard for me.
A feeling that something is watching you? Some people end up experiencing supernatural phenomena after having such feelings. Especially if it’s accompanied with a sense of dread.
Delusions and hallucinations are a thing. Ever feel your phone vibrating in your pocket when it actually wasn’t ? That’s a hallucination, nothing supernatural about it. Feelings aren’t a reliable way to assess reality, and relying on feelings to make decisions is a recipe for disaster.
Do you think that the current reality we experience as humans is true reality?
Sure. There’s no reason not to, considering the brain, which is a physical object. Everything we think and do is a product of the physical world.
Actually, no one knows. There isn’t any hard concrete evidence that proves that this current reality is absolute true reality.
Unless there’s evidence of an alternative reality, you might as well be talking about leprechauns and unicorns.
