Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.

The rules are simple:

The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
The comic must be a complete story.
If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
You may post comics from others or your own.
If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
Politeness.
AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
Limit of two posts per person per day.
Bots aren't allowed.
Banned users will have their posts removed.
Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

you can suspend judgement. that's the reasonable thing to do. it's literally the middle ground between accepting and rejecting a claim.

I really don't know how many other ways I can put it. Theism is defined as accepting the claim that there is at least one deity. You either do that or you don't. You're either theist or you're not. If you're some third option, that means you're not theist. if you're not theist, you're without theism. The word for when you're without theism is atheist.

agnostic is a viable third option

There's no third options here. You can't simultaneously accept the claim that there's at least one deity and not accept the claim that there's at least one deity

you don't need to accept either claim. you can suspend judgement.

try reading into epistemology

I'm glad we finally agree. Not accepting either claim means you're an agnostic atheist. Have a good day
