James, you were addressing my comments that I wrote regarding what you said on a podcast. I only offered you the chance to defend
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.
-
That last sentence doesn't make sense if you understand what posttheism is. No-one claims it invented anything.
-
You're confused abt whether posttheism is good or worthless, whether its new or in existence. Please read the book.
-
I think your hostility will go if you do coz you've much more common ground than you think.
-
Helen, I have read much on the subject now and spoken to James, who is not the only author. It offers nothing new or unique.
-
And this contradicts what James said about many atheists already being posttheists how? You're arguing against claims not made.
-
What? Helen, in never said that.
-
Well, if James says the approach already exists but advocates more of us take it, why do you keep saying its not new?

Why they should instead engage with it on its own terms & legitimate it & ignore the psychology underlying it.
-
If you do that well enough, you can expect someone who's spent three yrs researching psych of religion to take you seriously.
