It's possible to imagine forever until you hit a brick wall. Objective fact, atheistic aggression and 'keeping it real' used to be exit doors for daydreaming.

We don't do any of that anymore. It has helped me to study the effects of electronics on the nervous system. Many of our automatic behaviours can be supercharged by electronics.

- barrysteve 3y agoUh I understand where my comment went wrong. My mistake, sorry Hackernews. I meant the Hitchens, Dawkins, Dennet crowd who were very forward with their views about how religion kills people and is responsible for many violent acts and bad things, and the general combative sense, how Hitchens would push forward an argument (particularly with Islamic people). It is difficult to go on daydreaming about things when imminent threats like that appear to be clear and present dangers. Total idiot move on my behalf to just leave that comment without further qualification.
- pxc 3y agoAs an atheist and a lifelong daydreamer, I don't think atheism (or even antitheism) are opposed to daydreaming at all. You don't have to believe that some possible thing is actual just to daydream about it! That's kinda what makes daydreaming what it is. Why can't (or shouldn't) atheists daydream about anything— even gods?
