> wtf am I doing

Some part of you realized that Bronze Age superstitions aren’t worth that kind of effort.



Please provide a couple sentences of your belief system so that I may mock them as well. It's only fair.


Beliefs need to be justified by evidence that supports a defensible theory. Otherwise, there’s no meaningful basis for choosing between beliefs.

I’m not mocking you. I’m pointing out that you’re making an epistemic mistake, and speculating that at some level, you recognize that, based on your self-described choices.
