Atheism is a religion the same way being asexual is a sexual kink or not having a hobby is a hobby. So many religious people can never understand this.
Agnosticism is just philosophical laziness with a fancy name.

Submission + - DOGE's Grant Review Process Was Asking ChatGPT 'Is This DEI?' (techdirt.com)
frenchgates writes: 'Federal grants that had been approved after a full application and review process were terminated by some random inexperienced DOGE bros based on whether ChatGPT could explain—in under 120 characters—that they were “related to DEI.”
There were plenty of early reports that the DOGE bros Elon Musk brought into government—operating on the hubristically ignorant belief that they understood how things worked better than actual government employees—were using AI tools to figure out what to cut. Now we have the receipts.
The bros in question here are Nate Cavanaugh and Justin Fox who appeared all over the place in the early DOGE days, destroying the US government.'

Whether or not you refuse to accept climate change, fossil fuels cause all kinds of other empirically obvious damage to the biosphere. Eliminating that incredible poison, toxic in every stage of its extraction, use, and disposal, to the extent feasible is an obvious priority.
