Genuine question Maybe Buddha, understood... 😉 Why do you write God with a capital letter, if you don't believe? Be honest. 53 minutes ago, dimreepr said: explanation of the soul, that can replace a need for god; in our age of enlightenment. Why do you need a soul without God? This is the most private relationship between me and myself. And "need" is wrong word. Edited December 17, 2023 by mar_mar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally write God with a capital because ai think when having a discussion with a religious person it is antagonistic to write God without capitalizing. 6 minutes ago, dimreepr said: I didn't say that I need a soul, I'm just happy to accept that I have one I just don't really have any faith in things without evidence, if accepting something without evidence brings you comfort then I think that's just fine.

It's not sincere. If you don't believe and write God with a small letter, it won't "hurt my feelings", because i respect you free choice and mine. 27 minutes ago, dimreepr said: Because my computer told me too... My vocabulary tells me to write "i" with a capital letter, and i correct it every time. Because don't like to emphasize myself among others.

When I write God with a capital letter that is not an expression of any belief system it is just grammar. I find it very strange that you think I was being insincere. 11 minutes ago, mar_mar said: Would it be convenient to you if wrote god with a small letter?
