Thoughts on religion?
This might not get srs responses but i was js curious of other ppls perspectives, i personally am slowly losing belief in my religion just because i think the only reason religion has grown to be a thing now is cus mpst of them was made in the olden days when nothing was rlly clear so now if someone were to spread those ideas or smth they'd be looked at funny, so what are your thoughts?(￣∇￣")
I'm an atheist born in a strict religious family, I personally have no problem with religion, I find issue with its followers. People are free to have their own beliefs and life style and whatever helps them find comfort in living. The problem here that religion often is just used as a weapon and an excuse to ridicule others and isolate them from a...... 1 reply
It used to be a way for humans to understand the unexplainable of nature, in that sense I found it fascinating. The way so many different cultures interpreted nature and how they humanized it to make sense of it. Its also kinda terrifying tho, bc in history it always ended up with people harming others in the name of religion (sacrifices specifical...... 2 reply
I find it bizarre that, in today’s world, despite widespread access to education, so many people still cling to beliefs that predate the medieval era. It’s wild that people hold on to the same beliefs as an illiterate medieval European peasant who also believed in dragons and werewolves.
Sure, it made sense that in ancient times, before the sc...... reply
it is nothing but a cult that is deeply intertwined with patriarchy. it should be removed from society and people who cannot think of not harming others without religion should be executed. ur morality should not be fear based. if it is, its better for u to not exist at all. 1 reply

I think for many people, their belief in god is linked to the fact that they simply want to believe there is a deeper meaning to our lives, that there is something after death and that we don’t just cease to exist. Apart from that, I believe that hardship teaches us to pray... Like, when you’re in a difficult situation, faith in god is like a k...... reply
Religion in itself I don’t think is toxic however I believe that some people take it WAYY too far and the sketchier Christian churches specifically some of them are predatory and cultish, I have lost friends this way before, they become too self absorbed in religion it takes over their life because of their stupid ass church they push anyone away...... 3 reply
I believe it's a tool meant to encourage humans to do good. It's intended as a guideline. But if someone can be a good person without fearing hell or heaven, I don't see any problem with that. However, nowadays, many people have forgotten that it serves as a guideline for goodness and instead focus on its role as a tool. As a result, they are weapo...... 3 reply
This is just my rant sorry if it’s incoherent
I think that religion is honestly just used to control people, but it does have its place. I think that religion is good because it helps people cope with life, it gives some people meaning, and because religion offers a moral foundation to society. Example, some of the Ten Commandments. Those are v...... reply
