If somebody could get me a benevolent technological singularity before our civilisation collapses - like the soggy cardhouse of accepted half-truths, hypnotically charged keywords and superstitions that it is - that would be super.

About "atheism":

I strongly feel there must be a middle way: a moderate stance between "arrogant skeptical nihilistic fundamentalist-neo-atheist dismissal of things that are, by definition, beyond our knowledge" on the one hand - and "utter horseshit" on the other.

Only then will we have honoured and respected both paths to human knowledge - "cold, hard, empirical-evidentialist faithlessness" and "ass-pulled make-believe".
