@ThisIsChris I couldn’t tell if this was ultra high level sarcasm of not.
@Jacob Materialism is super important. You want to have food, shelter, fun, cloths, etc. The reason the Left decries so-called materialism is because they want to confiscate everything you have and force you to thank you for it.
Turns out they are super intelligent.
Big brain nibbas
@OMGDwayne eh I wouldn't say needing basic necessities to enjoy life is materialism
@OMGDwayne When I think materialism, I'm not thinking food/shelter/clothing...I'm thinking shiny bits, jewelry, plastic crap.
Material growth is important. But so is spiritual growth. And I not preaching any specific religion, or even a religion exact. I’m just talking animus.
speaking of "big brained" nibbas
Lol
i want Carl Sagan back...
literally everything white is being replaced by non-whites, even the TV big brains
@Evan okay well my point is there's people for whom immediate material growth is more important than anything else
I just mean caring about things like your people is spirit.
man, that reddit is cancer.

@Asatru Artist - MD to be clear, it's a subreddit making fun of the things really posted in /r/atheism
Ironic fedora tipping
Oh thank god
/r/Atheism used to be one of reddit's 20 default subreddits, so it got really huge, but it was mostly memes until one day: the head mod jij said you couldn't link to memes anymore, you would have to make a text post that linked to the meme and added an actual thought to it. Many users got very angered and siphoned off into a less regulated subreddit /r/AtheismRebooted, which lasted until jij allowed memes again. In the interim period /r/Atheism was removed as a default subreddit though so its growth slowed down but it's still one of the biggest subreddits today.
to me Atheism just causes people to worship the government or "stuff" as a substitute
Right wing "atheist" here. I can say for certain I do not want to be one
our people pulling away from God(s) is what has lead us to the point of degeneracy and rootlessness that we are at now
and has allowed certain, very evil, religions to grow at an alarming rate (Islam)
In one form or another, people are going to have idols
I think faith is firmly instilled in childhood. If the parents fail to raise a child to be faithful, they will end up secular.
I was never baptized because my parents wanted me to "decide for myself"
didn't work
I was raised Catholic but my parents were never serious about it
I tried pretty desperately to be Christian
even attempted to dabble in paganism for a bit
My mom started acting religious when I was a lot older but it came off as really fake
My parents never forced anything on me...i went to church with friends for many years (because i had to for sleepovers), but the Old Gods called to me
but if you are not raised with some kind of faith, it is incredibly hard to become faithful in adulthood unless you undergo a traumatic personal experience imo
yeah, the fear of death will certainly put the "fear of God" in you literally
