There are people among us who practice Whateverism as an alternative to religion. But because of the nature of Whateverism, it's not expressed, discussed or promoted.
The core principle of Whateverism is having a lesser regard towards religion and not having a strong opinion about all or most of religious beliefs. Unlike atheism, it does not challenge religions or oppose them, it just ignores them. Another difference would be, unlike most atheists, Whateverists, do understand that intelligence, like any other thing, is relative and vary by the reference model, so they do not think of themselves as intelligent than the religious people.
Whateverists, do not necessarily associate moral values with religious believes. They take pride in that understanding, but do not socially brag about it; because they are content by what they are... :)
Hmm..so a Whateverist acknowledges there's some kind of higher power but doesn't necessarily follow/believe in a particular kind?
ReplyDeleteRather, they don't have an opinion whether there is an higher power or not; they simply don't care.
ReplyDeleteIf you ask the question from a whateverist, the answer would be "whatever.."!! :)
