the object of true knowledge must be what really exists,

& if i may add,as there are realities beyond the scope of mind & 5 senses, beyond our telescope & microscope, so there are knowledge for that as well.
To put it simply, the universe is so immense that our accepted truths are but measurement of our own limited capacities & accessories,

true. limited with regards to our knowledge pool...but hey, thanks to science for pushing the boundaries. updating our knowledge bin...baby steps at a time.

on the other hand, our knowledge pool would pretty much stagnate if we take religious truths(in absolutes) with leaps of faith. we'd end up in nowhere....another dark age perhaps.

yes i agree w/ you that some religious truths w/c they call faith may only stagnate a persons "journey", i have nothing against faith, but faith that is blind, faith that rejects truth express in other faiths, faith that rejects truth express in music,in science, & in nature, faith for me a stepping stone not an end to discovery,

I also embraced the world view of atheism a long time ago...

i have nothing against faith in general.
its a personal thing...i only question it when it becomes a general rule of some sorts, as what some people employ here and there. when they start imposing/asserting their faith as such.

from there i only question it, and some peeps already consider me hostile with such approach.

As a general rule, we live and move have our being and we sleep and we wake up for another day! GOOD MORNING!

I think those who became Atheists have realized the beauty of nothingness!
