My religion teacher said that there are no atheists because in order to reject God, you must first have a concept of God, and if you have a concept of God, you are not an atheist. In what way is this true, if at all? Why?

Just because I am aware of the concept of Gods, or unicorns or chupacabra, doesn’t mean they are real. That’s… some really bad philosophy.

I have heard of the concepts of qlippoth, of daemons and devils, of the Dark Young, of Grays abducting people, and much more bizarre shit. It doesn’t mean they are all real. That is not how reality works. You CAN just make shit up.

That’s moronic.

Why do trans people get so deeply offended when a stranger misgenders them, especially when it's a first encounter? I've been socially transitioned for 4 years and it just feels like a waste of energy to be so hurt by it.

You have to BELIEVE GODS ARE REAL to believe that gods are real.
