Maynmann:


God/Gods comes from Theos.

You can see from aTHIEST.
And it’s a title not a person.

So which particular god?
And hope you know you are a monolatrist?

TenQ:

I wouldn't say I understand your point!

Every Christian is aware that apart from the Creator , other Deites exist and are worshipped.

It is not even required by definition that a Theist worship any deity: it is sufficient for them to acknowledge their existence.

If you turn the above around

It is not required by definition that an Atheist worship any deity: it is sufficient for them to refuse to acknowledge their existence.

Therefore, in the proper sense of definition; An Atheist is one who reject the existence of any deity!

Maynmann:


So when they call someone atheist, it means they don’t Believe in the Christian god?
Or they don’t believe in any god?

TenQ:

Atheist: DON'T believe in the existence of ANY God/Deity!

Maynmann:


And what’s a theist?

Heard of theology?

TenQ:

Deity is synonym for god!

Maynmann:


What about Theist?

TenQ:



It is not even required by definition that a Theist worship any deity: it is sufficient for them to acknowledge their existence.

If you turn the above around

It is not required by definition that an Atheist NOT worship any deity: it is sufficient for them to refuse to acknowledge their existence.

TenQ:

Maynmann:


And God/god/GOD means same.

TenQ:

God/god a title:
God for the Creator Deity
God for any other deity

Every Deity has his own name and identity.

Maynmann:


Theist means you BELIEVE in god/gods, as atheist means disbelief
So If you are particular about that god and you now WORSHIP that god out of other gods you are either a monolatrist or practicing hedonism.

This is like claiming the baby is Christian or Muslim simply because of the parents beliefs. It is neither nor can it to be said to be of any religious persuasion since it has no knowledge of these things. Or are you telling me you can be a Christian without knowing it?

Maynmann:


Yes god is a title.
So tell me your deity?

TenQ:

The discuss is purely about Atheism and Theism without distinguishing different forms of both terms.

It seems you are just knowing of a term "monolatrist"!

TenQ:

Who is your own Deity?

The baby doesn't possess knowledge of certain things just like the adult.


But the adult has passed through more though the adult might have a deformity that doesn't allow him or her to express his or her experience correctly.


Anyways, the baby also lacks belief in what he or she has not accepted to be specifically true without proof such as the existence of God which nobody can prove to have heard or seen anything about as an infant till he or she accepted the existence of such without the 'heard or seen something' being a proof.


Summary is there is no proof of any infant possessing any belief



Religious persuasion is different from lack of belief.

You don't need religious persuasion to lack belief.


The baby is an atheist whether or not the parents are atheists.

If I'm wrong ,why can't anyone including the Dtruthspeaker and TenQ prove their babies have the belief?

Maynmann:


I own no God.

TenQ:

Then it is not important a question for you!

Maynmann:


Bwahahaha, it seems you don’t what “theism” is .
Theism means BELIEVE, when you go further to WORSHIP you fall in this categories.

TenQ:

Theism mean believe!?
SMH!!

Maynmann:

What does aTHEISM mean?

Maynmann:

Theism means BELIEVE,.

TenQ:

It mean

TenQ:

So according to you,
All ANIMALS are atheists!?
So according to you,
All PLANTS are atheists!?
So according to you,
All BUILDINGS are atheists!?


Yes or No!?

TenQ:

It mean

HellVictorinho4:


Worship is the expression of the belief in God by doing something noteworthy to show you believe or intending to show you believe.

TenQ:

How is it different from
Belief and Disbelief are positions taking when we have reasonable and sometimes emotional cause for taking a position (usually because the information is not absolute). Here the available information is assumed to be sufficient to reach a conclusion.



The Opposite of Belief is Disbelief.

If a DISBELIEF is borne out of incomplete information regarded as sufficient to reach such conclusions.

How then is a LACK of BELIEF different from a DISBELIEF?

You are the one defining a State of Lack of Belief as if you are defining a Disbelief!

A lack of Belief is a Gnostic state: hence one can lack a belief that 2+4= 35 there is no other sufficient information that can change you from this state.

You think the contemporary lords of atheism have done a good job defining atheism as a Lack of Belief?

TenQ:

Disbelief in the idea of god's existence (due to insufficient EVIDENCE)!


A Disbelief is formed when the information is regarded as sufficient to reach a conclusion.

Thus even though atheists define atheism as a LACK of BELIEF, it is a stupid definition because it assumes a Gnostic knowing of the fact of God's inexistence!

HellVictorinho4:



An atheist is a person that doesn't believe in God.

Maynmann:


What does aTHIESM mean?

Except you don't know what it means, just check my previous posts on this thread!

LordReed:


Just tell me how an AGNOSTIC atheist is expressing GNOSTIC knowledge.

Maynmann:


The different between atheism and theism is the “dis”
