As I said, this brand of atheism comes from a place of misunderstanding. If you frame belief in deity as “inventing additional unseeable and unprovable forces and aspects”, then I’m afraid you’ve made some error along the way.
I’m not sure what benefit is provided by the projection of your hangups onto others. I’m not sure how you could construe your comment as inoffensive. I don’t see how implying my language was tortured, or my path too long, provides any form of guidance. Perhaps this is a subject where you should spend more time listening than guiding.
The OP was asking for personal reasons for believing what we believe. And that exact reasoning is what brought me out of panpsychism. Just my truth and not a commentary on yours.
Except that it literally was a commentary on me though. If you wanted to tell your own truth you could’ve made your own comment, but you responded to mine to tell me why your worldview was superior.
