A New Church Argues That Belief Without Evidence Is Socially Irresponsible

The Actulint Church Reframes Faith as a Public Risk, Not a Private Preference
ATLANTA, GA - January 19, 2026 - In a statement expected to spark debate across religious, academic, and civic circles, the Actulint Church has taken a firm position: belief without evidence is not merely a personal matter; it is a social liability.

The Actulint Church, a for-profit philosophical church, argues that while belief is often framed as a private right, its consequences are public. Decisions shaped by unexamined or unfalsifiable beliefs, the church contends, influence voting behavior, public policy, healthcare choices, education standards, and social trust.

"Beliefs don't stay in people's heads," an Actulint spokesperson said. "They shape behavior. And behavior shapes outcomes. At that point, evidence matters."

From Faith to Civic Responsibility

Actulint describes its position as philosophical rather than theological. The church does not attack spirituality or personal meaning, but challenges the normalization of belief systems that are insulated from scrutiny while exerting real-world influence.

"When belief systems affect public decisions, they stop being purely private," the spokesperson added. "They become part of the shared environment. And shared environments require standards."

According to Actulint, societies already apply evidentiary standards to medicine, engineering, aviation, and law, because errors in those domains carry collective risk. The church argues that belief systems shaping moral judgments and civic behavior should not be exempt from similar scrutiny.

A Different Kind of Church

The Actulint Church offers weekly rational sermons focused on clarity, responsibility, and disciplined thinking. It makes no supernatural claims, promises no salvation, and requires no belief. Instead, it emphasizes intellectual accountability and self-authorship.

Structurally, Actulint operates as a for-profit entity, rejecting tax-exempt status in favor of transparency and accountability. There are no tithes, no moral pressure to give, and no financial rewards tied to belief or status.

"If our ideas have value, people will support them," the spokesperson said. "If they don't, they shouldn't survive."

Why This Matters Now

As societies confront misinformation, polarization, and declining institutional trust, Actulint frames its position as timely rather than antagonistic.

"This isn't about erasing meaning," the statement concludes. "It's about recognizing that how we decide what's true affects everyone."
