OK, now I understand a little better.

You’ll probably find several “is it actually important ?” –type threads around. Maybe my second post was more relevant then. Personally I lean towards the “not really” side. For me I think our actions are more important than our words or even thoughts & from my experience I’d say that the human virtues of compassion, altruism, integrity are quite achievable from any number of worldviews.

For the moment I find myself comfortably agnostic to their existence. Living today is complicated enough without getting too obsessed with shadows.

For me morality and worldview occupy different spaces, and any correlation is usually accidental.
