Apatheism
Apatheism (/ˌæpəˈθiːɪzəm/ a portmanteau of apathy and theism/atheism), also known as pragmatic atheism or (critically) as practical atheism, is acting with apathy, disregard, or lack of interest towards belief or disbelief in a deity. Apatheism describes the manner
of acting towards a belief or lack of a belief in a deity; so applies
to both theism and atheism. An apatheist is also someone who is not
interested in accepting or denying any claims that gods
exist or do not exist. In other words, an apatheist is someone who
considers the question of the existence of gods as neither meaningful
nor relevant to his or her life.
