Theological Noncognitivism

some key ideas:

Theological noncognitivism is the argument that religious language, and specifically words like "God" (capitalized), are not cognitively meaningful

Some theological noncognitivists assert that to be an atheist is to give credence to the concept of God because it assumes that there actually is something understandable to not believe in.

As with ignosticism, the consistent theological noncognitivist awaits a coherent definition of the word God (or of any other metaphysical utterance purported to be discussable) before being able to engage in arguments for or against God's existence.

-----------------------------------------------

To be an atheist is to give credibility to the idea of "god" when it actually is meaningless. Divinity and the supernatural are merely spinoffs from social constructions which keep people in line.

In the same vein, being a theistic Satanist gives christianity credibility because it basically asserts that christ _and_ the antichrist exists. (Note: do not confuse theistic satanism with laVeyan satanism..laVeyan is a more sophisicated idea)

Choose ignosticism and theological noncognitivism today! Acknowledge that arguing for AND against a "god" is totally meaningless.

Otherwise, choose agnostic existentialism and atheistic existentialism. at least realise that humans can have a meaningful existence based on a common pursuit of science, humanities, sports, arts, and universal brotherhood instead of chasing shadows and worshipping idols.
