Youtube content-creator Emerson Green has always (?) been an atheist skeptical of mainline atheism and skepticism. I previously linked to his defense of "conspiracy theory" and a video about UFOs and aliens. He also seems to be a kind of ontological pluralist, rather than a materialist.
In the video above, posted ealier today Swedish time, Emerson says that he is no longer an atheist but rather an agnostic. His agnosticism seems to be a form of process philosophy (or ditto theology). He mentions Pierre Teilhard de Chardin sympathetically, and says that theism (although probably wrong) might still be a rational position to hold.
In general, he seems to believe in a kind of soft teleology in the cosmos. Wouldn´t surprise me if this guy actually becomes spiritual one of these days. Which "proves" my contention that a consistent and intellectually grounded atheist must be a materialist.
And they cheat, too.
