What Category Of Theism And Atheism Do You Belong? by chemystery(op): 3:54pm On May 11, 2017
1. Strong Theist: I do not question the existence of God, I KNOW he exists.

2. De-facto Theist: I cannot know for certain but I strongly believe in God and I live my life on the assumption that he is there.

3. Weak Theist: I am very uncertain, but I am inclined to believe in God.

4. Pure Agnostic: God’s existence and non-existence are exactly equiprobable.

5. Weak Atheist: I do not know whether God exists but I’m inclined to be skeptical.

6. De-facto Atheist: I cannot know for certain but I think God is very improbable and I live my life under the assumption that he is not there.

7. Strong Atheist: I am 100% sure that there is no God.

De-facto Atheist

but for the Abrahamic god I'm a strong atheist - not because of any special knowledge on my part, but simply because I have yet to hear a description of this deity that passes so much as basic logical coherence. There may yet be a god - but if we do discover one someday, it most likely won't be the one the bible/Koran etc talks about.

I am not God in the sense of the all knowing...

I am God because I have come to the realization that I am not a single entity.... I am not a "me"..

I am something infinitesimal.... Both to a macro or micro degree... I am an organ within a billion organs and a billion organs are within me...

I am a part of the universe.... Because I am the universe

I wish I could explain it in a more simplistic manner..

When you take away the colours and structure of religious mythology, the definition of a god can be made into anything. There is absolutely no evidence towards the universe originating from the "intelligent design" of a magical "being" (something with a nervous system?), and there is a huge amount of evidence pointing towards deities as being the psychological and social constructs of human beings.

There is no evidence towards any kind of god existing, and there is heavy historical documentation of the development of religion and belief in godly beings - both as a societal excuse for uncontrollable or unexplainable environmental events (e.g. Mount Kilamanjaro's eruption killing off a huge amount of early humans - "Surely there is some higher creature to us who has punished us for something!" would be an easy explanation for a phenomenon hunter gatherers or neolithic pastoralists would not be able to explain) and as a means by governments to brainwash, subdue and control the people of their countries (The Catholic Church, Pretty-much every Muslim country ever, Buddhism, hell there is even historical recordings of a Southeast Asian emperor who made up a religion around himself and sent monks to convert the villagers so they would worship and labour for him without questioning. King Henry VIII of England literally made a new church, the Church of England, so that he would be allowed to keep divorcing and marrying wives).

God doesn't exist and religion is a joke.

Op, you didnt create that scale on your own. Give credit to Dawkins who did. Anything short of that is plagiarism.

Ok.

I'm more interested in knowing your level of conviction, though.

Lol...There are only two

The believer
The unbeliever.

If you do not believe 100%, you are an unbeliever. If you believe 1%, you are an unbeliever.

So what level of believer/unbeliever are you?

i still think we created this sh*t we found ourselves in, this might be a playground and equally learning platform.i think we are a part of the first cause.

Believing is seeing. Jupiter is part of the belief system I grew up with, it is part of a conscious creation. Therefore if I belief Jupiter exist, I have created it.

To me the positions of 1 and 7 are illogical.
