Religion is a great way to survive without having to do shit

^^^^^

xD

why is religion a thing anyway ?

Control.

It is a way to increase survival for you and your family @Okamle

@Okamle I mean, the ones in charge

look back to the first religions, when you convince people in a god, which controls the weather, and they give you free food and drink. Then they eat and drink it, and say the god liked the offering, so bring more next time

^^^^^^^^^

A non-disprovable god

^^^^^

And if you resist, they make the rest of the tribe murder you, because you're a demon or whatever

Witch!

^^^^^^^^^^

@vegeta someone gets it 😃

Agree 100%

religion is or was highest authority

Authority is whatever you say it is

religion created morals and the right way to live by

its to control youuuu

It only has what you give it

I was talking to some religious people...they don't get some points or they avoid points.

bc it makes sense

^^

@Okamle they have to in order to maintain belief

they hate logic

@Okamle it's called cognitive dissonance

kik

muh logic meme

Shut down the logic in order to maintain the core belief

>logic

lol

we're all subject to this when confronted with something that challenged our world view

It's foolish to assume it only effects religious people

what view

not all, but it is a normal thing for most

I just want a fucking burrito.

^

have some of mine

they were only 38 cents

there good asf

If you're a practicing skeptic, the ideas change with provided evidence, but it doesn't always work.

jalapeno kind

hueh, my superior atheist intellect will teach those christ cucks about SCIENCE and LOGIC and REASONING

people are prone to confirmation bias

I was talking to some person and they only thought seeing was prof alone

^^^^^

jesus

but i mean shit

sabah alhad

?

What?

Shiba Inu

shib shib

I'm confused.

religion taught people to live the morally correct way, which is how all developed societies live

I explain no there's more then seeing there's hearing,feeling and testing things

@nah ⛓ no

english is not my first language rip

you cant live by the bible

prove me wrong big guy

without breaking one sin

@nah ⛓ shifting the burdern of proof

I think religion is only good for culture cos man that bible fiction is some lit bedtime story

Sorry bud, you are the one making the claim

too many people typing its hard to keep a train of thought

religion is just a primitive substitute for a robust moral compass

morals dont come from nowhere

They come from people

wuh

They guy only was saying "but can you see" ..... Ya that bad

where do you thing those people got it from

People

thinking and reason

and logic, and our brains

wym

Even religious people claiming moral objectivity are just fooling themselves

our brains tell us to kill for food and shelter

It isnt just for morals its to find importance in life, and like shit like that yeah

@nah ⛓ To live by a 2000 year old book and to ignore science that has explained human empathy is ludicrous.

>ignoring science

There is no proof of a universal morality, or a universal teacher, or a universal moral source

what you talking about

there isnt

you are right

There is no good without bed

the morals we live by now come from early religions

You guys have to admit Christianity has done a lot of good

@nah ⛓ wrong

@nah ⛓ I live by my own morals

Wait tell us why dovahdrog

*Internal screaming*

lmao you're enlightenef

I am

I NEED to know

christianity has stoned ppl to deat
burned alive

kill other religions

I consider your way of thinking to be bronze age nonsense

Islam does this today

christianity has been reformed

such as paganisims

*Internal screaming*

Christianity has drastically changed

@nah ⛓ If you say so - I say it is morally reprehensible

its kinda still the same shun all the gays

Christianity hasn't done anythign of the sort for centuries

Shh...the Spanish Inquisition might hear.

and non believers

It still hates gays and trans people

Is it though?

Is it really?

Then British Christianity is way more lax

^^^

and loves little kids

They used to kill people for mixing races

i want christianity to die i will kil everyone

They used to kill people for running away as a slave

dayum thats fucked up

Now it is kill for being gay

...................

You're talking about 50s Americans @Deleted User

it will never end

Whats that called again

@huell_Clover let us just ignore all history?

Whats the term for not allowing race mixing and auchv

Like that kind of thing

christianity was reformed dumbass

Christians kill peopel for being gay

Oh, not ad hominem

christians beating up gays bc there gay

In this century

Sure

makes sense

thank goodness it was

Where?

you just lost @nah ⛓

Some Religious people still think atheism is a religion....idk why

no were but i wouldnt doubt it happened

what?

An argument of 'you're a dumbass' ? really?

No man he hasn't Christianity today is nothing liek what it used to be

thats not my argument

i said my argument

You called me a dumbass

and then youre a dumbass

not an add hominem

Christianity has reformed, there are no more executions over blasphemy or apostasy

You are not as intelligent as you think you are

*sits in corner*

dovah

for once

think before you start typing

Dovah neither are you I liek you man but don't be arrogant

you're wrong, dumbass

hehe

I really wish there was an afterlife. I like to imagine my dead husband being like NOOOOOO!!!! every time I sell or throw out one of his favorite possessions.

tf

Dovah come on you know how old you are don't be childish

Can I get out of the corner?

I'm the childish one? noice

Come on enlighten us

'you're a dumbass' < not childish

😛

You guys are ridiculous

@nah ⛓ i want to fucking kill you

@nah ⛓ Has a really good point here, western morals have come from Christian values

This is really funny

Think abotu it

Ok shut up and enlighten me nigger!

you're not going to have an enlightening discussion if you can't get over yourselves

@huell_Clover Like slavery - yes

Human biology.

omg - it's like jousting with a puppy
You are not as intelligent as you think you are

@Deleted User Don't be so arrogant and dismissive if someone disagrees with you

Goose, shut up

That's where it came from.

@Deleted User Islam was for more into slavery than Christianity ever was

Ok i know human biology but wlaborate!!

My morals are a little sketchy, but I don't want to go to jail, so I behave.

0.0

Still is

What kinda shit show did I pop into?!

Please elaborate i seek enlightenment

Morals come from what you believe is right and what you know

a lot of places had slavry such as africa

@Foxy⚧ Run!

Christian Britain outlawed slave trade globally in 1833 and used their navy to ensure iut

^^^^^^

Dude isnt it also what the people around yku think is right

But you can't say Christianity is the worst thing to happen to the world a lot and I mean A LOT of good has come of it

like western civ^^

@vegeta Sounds like a plan, gonna pop in to the art section

Yes

Eh, good and bad in my eyes.

Hey

Exactly, western civilization would not be the same without centuries of Christian dominance

I guess.

centuries of iterating on christian values

See ya guys later i need to close my eyes a little

Close them all the way or you might get dry eye.

There's good and bad to religion.... Now a days mostly bad

Whether it did good and/or bad is irrelevant, it still had a lot to do with history.

"mostly bad"

elaborate

Look at Hitler, he did a lot of fucked up things, but his time in the world did shape history.

are you implying hitler is representative of christians

No!

I say bad because kicking out people they don't like for stupid reasons

or of any religion

And memes @vegeta

who's getting kicked out

of where

and dont say islam, cuz its kind of a given

I'm just saying that both good and bad shapes the world.

If your gay they do

islam is gay

Hiii againnn

not even all christian denomenations do that

Heyy

lol

Bevsi! Run!

Run?

I don't like much of Islam either

People who are short run fast as fuck

Really?

I much prefer modern christianity

Same.

I much prefer life without religion all together

well being homophobic and stoning people isnt exactly modern

life without religion would be hell

olivia what are you talking about

who's stoning gays in europe

Like the Old Testament is really messed up

Oh! Religious debate? Im out!

they want them to stop being gay, because they love gays

Yooooo niggsssss

rude

Sup

Got new timbs?

Thank god we've stopped talking abotu religion

The reddit tier opinions are gone
