The Difference Between Philosophy And Religion
I am calling myself atheistic as a part of being apistic. But there are many people, who call themselves atheists in spite of being religious. They do not consider this as a contradiction, as long as their preferred religion does not include personalized deities. Buddhism is an example, which is wrongly defined as a philosophy by those alleged…
