James, you were addressing my comments that I wrote regarding what you said on a podcast. I only offered you the chance to defend
But you're expecting him to defend his points at length when he's done this. You need to read the book.
-
-
If what he said on the podcast wasn't clear to you & it seems it wasn't. Everyone else seems to get it. Go for the long version.
-
I get what post-theism is. I have no questions about it. I find nothing new or unique in it. I find it therefore worthless.
-
And yet you also see that many atheists already do it & said that like its a good thing.
-
YES! Which makes post-theism worthless and nothing new.
-
They should stop? You think James claimed its newer than the ppl already doing it?
-
No. I don't. He didn't say that and I didn't say he did. I said post-theism is worthless as it offers nothing.
-
Then I suggest you write something explaining why atheists shld stop treating religion as an idea yet to prove itself.
-
Why would I write that? I agree with and do that. It's just not something invented by post-theism.

He dishonestly portrayed my words as a response to his book. They weren't. They were only a response to his own spoken words.
-
He asked if you'd read it. If you had you'd see your questions answered.
-
What questions?
-
What does posttheism offer that is new? How is this diff to atheism+? Etc
-
Atheism is not a philosophy. Not a belief. Not a moral code. Atheism offers nothing. Not the point or the definition of atheism.
-
Who said it was?

No I'm not. I'm expecting nothing from him & I am not disappointed. I addressed what he said on a podcast. He can defend or not.
-
He has. You can read it or not.
-
No he has not addressed what I said and I don't care if he does.
-
Then you don't sincerely want to understand. Just snipe. Authors get a lot of this & learn to ignore. Write something thoughtful
-
Helen, I understand what post-theism is.
-
Its a new & worthless good thing that some atheists are already doing apparently.
