“You do, you know,” said The Lady. “Everyone has gods. You just don’t think they’re gods.”

    The reason you can’t tell me what god I worship is that I don’t worship any gods. Lying and calling me religious won’t make me religious. It just makes you look silly.

      You’re a realist. You worship reality. It’s only been said a dozen times in this thread. You’re just denying that you’ve heard it like you deny the rest of science.

        And I told you I worship nothing. Not even reality. I don’t even accept that reality is what my senses tell me. For all I know, I’m a brain in a vat.

        Lying about what I believe doesn’t really work when you don’t know anything about me.

          You literally said that me not sharing your religion is a symptom of mental illness. You don’t accept reality? If that’s true, you’ve done a great deal of personal improvement in the last day. Maybe you’re ready to give up realism.

                Correct. That is what I said. This is what you lied about:

                You literally said that me not sharing your religion is a symptom of mental illness.

                I literally said none of that. Thank you for proving it on my behalf.

                  It’s a screenshot of you saying people who disagree with your religion are mentally ill, because realism is your religion. The absolute lack of critical thinking is astonishing.

                    Nope, I don’t have a religion. That is a lie. Lying about me having a religion will not make it true.
