What do you base your beliefs on

Why do so many people base their beliefs on just the bible. And literary? Why would you not take everything into consideration. Logic and feelings. To me it's like trying to cross the lake in a boat but refusing the paddle. 🤣 And then saying the boat's no good 🙄

Evidence.

Of course.

@newjaninev2 i assume you mean evidence for a Creator. And what do you use to gather your evidence?

newjaninev2 · 56-60, F

@Millerdog Why would I invent a creator? There’s neither need nor evidence for such a postulation.

@newjaninev2 well there still could be one. Humans like to rationalize

@Millerdog One? There could be 50,000,000,000 of the things... in fact, there’s no upper limit.

That’s why we needn’t bother with the postulation. It explains nothing (not even itself) and can be used to produce endless convenient versions as required.

All of which have neither need nor usefulness

@newjaninev2 for some people perhaps but certainly not all. and not me. but to each their own. i'm cool with that
