Ever since I learned of Jainism I’ve wished I’d learned of it earlier.
- NaomiLehman 1y agoThank you I just learned about it. Seems compatible with atheism.
- hackernewds 1y agoIt absolutely does not. Jainism is even stricter than Hinduism, to be co-opted with a faithless belief system
- anilgulecha 1y agoIt's atheistic in that it's godless (more focused on saints). In its orthodoxy it requires a lot from any practitioner, towards its philosophy.
- yawpitch 1y agoAtheism isn’t a faithless belief system, it is the absence of either a faith or a belief system. That absence is also quite compatible with Jainism, the core moral precept of which is simply do no violence.
