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.

An ideology that asserts itself without knowledge is, by definition, a belief.Tbis is why, in science, we talk of theory and not belief. It acknowledges that gaps of knowledge are filled by assumption based on likelihood, but fact is never asserted until a bridge of knowledge is completely constructed.
Dawkins refers to the theism of our species. However he knows as much of our reality as anyone else. Very, very little. But take comfort in knowing that science, at least philosophically, would pursue what is beyond a deity should one ever be known. Or none of this is real. You don't actually know.
