http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nihilism#Moral_nihilism

I'm an epistemological solipsist
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epistemological_solipsism
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solipsism

I believe the only thing I can be certain of is that my self exists

this does not mean I am a nihilist in ANY way, I still have my hopes and
fears from which I construct morals

if we go back to Pascal's Wager, if religion is a better social fabric,
then let it be, regardless of truth

most anti responses to my original post on Pascal's Wager were there
were many religions and how would you know which to follow

this is why I have a firm hope for not only religious tolerance, but
separation of all states and churches, to favor a religion does not
allow for the same degree of mingling and evolution towards one agreed
upon religion

such a religion would respect atheism, but not moral nihilism
