Mystrikism & The Union of Mystriks
@mystrikism.bsky.social
Mystrikism is a sensible, syncretic, philosophical identity offering a naturalistic alternative to traditional religion. We uphold an ethos that prioritises kindness and honesty through the methods of science without relying on the supernatural.
Live curiously, think critically, act justly. Seek well-being for people, life and our planet through science, evidence, reason & compassion. Marvel at reality, embrace mystery, and build ethics that work in the real world, not the imagined or wished for. #Mystrikism.org

We’re agnostic, non-religious, non-theist, grounded in naturalism. Because we don’t know, provisionally, we don’t believe. We stay open to evidence and mystery. Truth stands taller than faith when guided by the integrated principles of science and intellectual humility. #Mystrikism.org

We revere (respect and awe) the vast unknown - not as divine, but as a humbling reminder of our limits. Awe, wonder and connection are natural experiences. The micro and macro cosmos inspires us without requiring the "supernatural", reminding us we’re part of something far greater. #Mystrikism.org

We select insights that work, not just blend them. No worship, no dogmatic dogma - only curiosity, evidence, and ethics rooted in measurable reality and well-being. We seek justice infused with compassion, and celebrate awe without needing myths or gods to give it meaning. #Mystrikism.org

A rational, naturalistic alternative to religion, blending proven ideas from philosophy, culture and rational theology. We value science, justice, awe, and ethics based on measurable well-being - rejecting the supernatural while staying open to mystery and rational truth. #Mystrikism.org

Kindness is justice’s first move, preventing harm through empathy, dialogue and repair before rules or force are needed. But when goodwill has been employed and ultimately exploited, principled, proportional action defends it, aiming to protect and reduce suffering, not dominate. #Mystrikism.org

Nature is all reality, 1 law bound whole with nothing supernatural beyond it. No real split between “natural” & “artificial”; all from galaxies to thoughts is nature. Truth, reason & evidence is always better than myth, letting us shape a better world thru what’s real. #Mystrikism.org

Freethinking isn’t endless doubt or ego-driven detachment. It’s the courage to stand on well-supported truth while staying open to change. Scepticism without commitment breeds stagnation. Balance is key to real freedom & growth. #Mystrikism.org

Purpose ain’t preset but a fluid quest to know more. Life is a journey where every answer births new Qs, sparking awe, wonder & growth. The unknown isn’t void, it’s our spark, driving us thru endless curiosity, deep connect & insight. Every Q lights our path anew, igniting our quest! #Mystrikism.org

Drop certainties, embrace the vast unknown as nature’s own rational force. It humbles, deflates ego & fuels endless curiosity. Not a god but a raw, dynamic expanse that reshapes our view, reminding us we’re mere pieces of a grand cosmic puzzle. Quest on! #Mystrikism.org

Aweism reclaims “spirituality” as raw, natural awe, those epic, transformative moments that humble, connect & shift our view. From sunrise to a dewdrop’s shimmer, pausing to savor life’s wonders sparks fresh insight, fuels creativity, rewires us to live fully. Each spark fuels quest. #Mystrikism.org

Respect personal autonomy but weigh compassion, rational inquiry & planet’s health. Encourage early choice (<18wks) but allow exceptions for medical necessity, crises & social factors if needed. Overpopulation strains ecosystems: expand contraception, educated & wise reproduction #Mystrikism.org

Logical fallacies undermine reasoning. From straw man to false dilemma, Mystrikism equips us to spot flawed logic, focus on evidence, & refine inquiry. Analytical philosophy ensures clarity & rigor in truth-seeking, rejecting distraction & bias. #Mystrikism.org

Analytical philosophy adds clarity & rigour to inquiry: conceptual analysis ensures precise terms, logic tests soundness, & epistemology examines how we "know." Together w/ science, critical thinking, & reasoning, it sharpens our path to truth. #Mystrikism.org

Understanding complexity demands layered reasoning: abduction forms hypotheses, deduction tests them, & induction refines them w/ evidence. Each mode has limits, but combined, they ensure balanced, logical inquiry grounded in science & critical thinking. #Mystrikism.org

Critical thinking sharpens inquiry: scepticism, analysis, logic, evidence evaluation & open-mindedness ensure sound judgments. It refines the scientific method by challenging bias & fostering intellectual honesty. Together, they build deeper understanding. #Mystrikism.org

The scientific method is the cornerstone of inquiry: observe, question, hypothesise, test, analyse, & refine. It’s key to uncovering truths of the natural world. Though limited in subjectivity, it pairs with other tools for deeper understanding. Embrace its rigor. #Mystrikism.org

Free will or determinism? Mystrikism embraces determinism, seeing all actions as interconnected & shaped by prior causes. This view nurtures humility & empathy, reflecting our reverence for the dynamic unknown & the shared influences binding all life. #Mystrikism.org

Emergent phenomena aren’t mystical but complex systems awaiting explanation. Mystrikism rejects irreducible claims, embracing emergentism as a tool for navigating complexity like consciousness. Trust science to uncover truths beyond today’s limits. #Mystrikism.org

Belief isn't blind faith. Rational beliefs rest on evidence & logic, not wishful thinking. Mystrikism values nuanced beliefs grounded in science & openness to the unknown. Simplistic ideas like "belief = faith w/o evidence" miss this vital distinction. #Mystrikism.org
