As long as they aren’t believing every small thing that happens is due to the actions of said sky wizard, I’m not seeing the incompatibility. Also, I’m agnostic, so if you’re trying to get a raise out of me don’t bother.

That’s what religion is.

  No, that’s what some people think religion is. You’re describing a subset of Christianity, which is in itself a subset of religions. Just because it may apply to a large number of Americans doesn’t make it the norm everywhere.

    You just said that’s not religion, then you told me it is religion. It can’t be both.
    
    No wonder you’re agnostic.

    But, if you wanna try to prove any of your magical, mystical beliefs, go ahead
    
    What magical mystical beliefs? You just pointed out I’m agnostic. By definition, I’m the one waiting for proof.
    
    It’s all ancient mythology made up thousands of years ago. There’s no fact or science in it because it isn’t real.
    
    Nobody in this thread claimed it’s real. The only claim was that they’re not necessarily mutually exclusive with reality. Buddhism for example believes in reincarnation of souls. Good luck proving a negative with that one.
    
    Honestly, militant atheists like you give the rest of us nonbelievers a bad look. You’re like that one vegan who keeps calling everybody Hitler.
