RE: https://mstdn.social/@_L1vY_/116506290115120678
To have conversations with disembodied beings and to believe that these beings have consciousness and volition is the essence of what #spirituality or #Religion is. I have no problem with #AI believers having spiritual practices that involve chatbots. People have believed in weirder things. However, they cross a line for me when they refuse to acknowledge that this is a personal spiritual practice and insist that their reality is everyone else’s. That’s when spirituality becomes #dogmatism.

A quotation from La Rochefoucauld
We are stubborn because we are narrow-minded; it is hard to believe what is beyond the scope of our vision.
[La petitesse de l’esprit fait l’opiniâtreté, et nous ne croyons pas aisément ce qui est au delà de ce que nous voyons.]François VI, duc de La Rochefoucauld (1613-1680) French epigrammatist, memoirist, noble
Réflexions ou sentences et maximes morales [Reflections; or Sentences and Moral Maxims], ¶265 (1665-1678) [tr. Heard (1917), ¶273]More about (and translations of) this quote: wist.info/la-rochefoucauld-fra…

A quotation from Bertrand Russell
Neither acquiescence in skepticism nor acquiescence in dogma is what education should produce. What it should produce is a belief that knowledge is attainable in a measure, though with difficulty; that much of what passes for knowledge at any given time is likely to be more or less mistaken, but that the mistakes can be rectified by care and industry. In acting upon our beliefs, we should be very cautious where a small error would mean disaster; nevertheless it is upon our beliefs that we must act. This state of mind is rather difficult: it requires a high degree of intellectual culture without emotional atrophy. But though difficult it is not impossible; it is in fact the scientific temper. Knowledge, like other good things, is difficult, but not impossible; the dogmatist forgets the difficulty, the skeptic denies the possibility. Both are mistaken, and their errors, when wide-spread, produce social disaster.
Bertrand Russell (1872-1970) English mathematician and philosopher
Education and the Good Life, Part 1, ch. 2 “The Aims of Education” (1926)More about this quote: wist.info/russell-bertrand/826…

When we believe ourselves in possession of the only truth, we are likely to be indifferent to common everyday truths. Self-deception, credulity, and charlatanism are somehow linked together.
Eric Hoffer (1902-1983) American writer, philosopher, longshoreman
Passionate State of Mind, Aphorism 83 (1955)Sourcing, notes: wist.info/hoffer-eric/16699/

Doubt is not a pleasant condition, but certainty is an absurd one.

Letter (1770-11-28) to Frederick William, Prince of Prussia [tr. Tallentyre (1919)]Sourcing, notes, alternate translations: wist.info/voltaire/4016/
