No they aren't lol
Religion is a permanent answer to the CURRENT questions
It's fucking dumb.
Ask any Christian about unleavened bread
Oh so, the old book was wrong.
It's a divider, but it's also a unifier.
It's hard to say we will ever fully unify humanity. And if we did, that would be rather dystopian. You'd have to eliminate free will.
The old word of god wasn't shit.
The new word of god--same god by the way-- that's hype.
Now, I'm not going to say Religion is blameless and pure. Nor will I say all religious edicts are perfect.
Like gramma is hard wired into the brain, it is thought that a need for a belief system is also needed. You can see this all over Europe. We tossed religion out the window and have seen the same behaviour with out it. We believe in different things. Religion may be an idea of the past but it's not like our brain have evolved much since. Let ppl have their fairy tale but we need to let them know when it is effecting others.

He's existed since the beginning of time, but in these hundreds of years he's really learned a lot.
🙄
But hatred of religion as religion is as dangerous as radical religion.
You can't reform a Religion that says "kill the non-believers and the hypocrates".....
Yeah, I get your point Scribble, but you have to have some degree of charity.
Do not call unclean that which God has made clean my dude
Why the fuck did the uploader have to sully it like that
Christians operate on a different set of rules than the Tribe of Israel
Jesus christ
Argue against the actual position or question the validity of the change, but don't pretend the change didn't happen
Again, the goal of the religion is important!
Antifa is good, their goal is good.
Is the religion to be a religion or is it something with a more sinister goal?
Religion is a Disney movie that said "Happily ever after" that got a straight to video sequel.
Even Jordan Peterson acknowledges the importance of Religion!
"Oh right, things ebb and flow. New problems and ways to deal with them."
and washing penises
and btw: Sam Harris is dead wrong.
this feels very shitposty rn 🏃 💨
On what?
That Religion is par se bad and must be abolished.
Hitchens would crush anyone on this topic.
There's a wealth of footage of him doing it.
Prager wasn't SHIT.
@Ottobon No, it's just that there's two things you usually don't talk about: Politics and Religion.
Usually people talk politics, but it became rather one sided. So now we talk about religion I guess...
He was a monster of the week.
I think you can make the case wrt organized religion being inherently bad
Harris is big on spirituality though
Look, believe what you want. I don't have problem with that but don't come at me that religion is overall good. It's demonstrably not.
Yes and I agree with Beemann that Religions with big Organizations behind them are bad.
