What do atheists think of Dostoevsky's work?

Prove it

he wasn't even an atheist in his edgy socialist phase

Did you even read him? Just because there were religious themes doesn't mean the author was religious. He used to more before of it's meaning to Russian identity. I swear you are the same retards who think he wasn't a socialist

Just kill yourself fedoratard
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fyodor_Dostoevsky#Religious_beliefs

even the most surface-level online biography will tell you that he was sincerely religious and hated atheism. it's all over his personal letters too.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

“If someone proved to me that Christ is outside the truth and that in reality the truth were outside of Christ, then I should prefer to remain with Christ rather than with the truth.”
God sends me sometimes instants when I am completely calm; at those instants I love and feel loved by others, and it is at those instances that I have shaped for myself a Credo where everything is clear and sacred for me. This Credo is very simple, here it is: to believe that nothing is more beautiful, profound, sympathetic, reasonable, manly and more powerful than Christ.”
- Dostoevski

atheists do not think in a complete manner therefore they wouldn't.

>“If someone proved to me that Christ is outside the truth and that in reality the truth were outside of Christ, then I should prefer to remain with Christ rather than with the truth.”
how do you read this and not see that he's taking the piss?

he's literally making fun of how christfags think and their retardation and you dumbfucks lap it up.

holy fuck now I understand how Jordan Peterson was able to become a Z list celebrity

>how do you read this and not see that he's taking the piss?
Now I see that you are taking the piss
Enjoy your (you)

you're the biggest retard ive seen in a while

Do you seriously not get what he is trying to say? Don't take "Christ" so literally

What is he trying to say

Even as an atheist, I find myself very moved by the religious themes and moments.

He’s a bad writer (what is weather, what do his characters look like), and a basic bitch Christcuck philosopher. Tolstoy did what he wished he could do and much more.

>Dostoevsky, the only psychologist from whom I've anything to learn.

He wrote a letter to his brother bitching about how the publishers of NFTU made him take out the part where he explains that Christ is the answer.

>literally loses his mind because someone whips a horse

Yeah, anything harder than Dostoevsky and he might have promptly killed himself.

>do atheists think
Not sure.

He was very prescient in many respects, like how for instance his character Lebedev in The Idiot proclaims that the railway is essentially the manifestation of the Devil and will wreak havoc upon Russia.

He's talking about his epileptic seizures, right?

people usually aren't calm during a seizure

Literal mental gymnastics to confirm your worldview.
Can you provide any other context to strengthen your position or are you just a big flaming faggot?

He's talking about the Aura to his epilepsy, yes. The Idiot references the euphoria of that moment just before the seizure; he says that he would give up his entire life for that one moment.

Same as Christians? Obviously there isn't as much as a spiritual level but is that all religious people get out of his work

He has brain cancer

Probably was bi-polar
