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 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
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.

Maybe a hot take but children shouldn’t have be born into any religion, nor swayed to fo...... reply
i don't believe in it. im atheist agnostic. tho i struggle alot bc i used to be kinda religious but it's so misogynist i have lost all faith. religion sounds BS to me now. but it's hard to let go of the fear.

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...... 2 reply
