to not have to think
be intentional, question more, ponder, consider, use that fucking conciousness that makes us so OP as an apex predator. Use reason.
BUT
haha.. I love how hes just going with it https://twitter.com/rickygervais/status/1158465234773905408?s=20
don't blindly accept any of this just because I or anyone else says it.
i think the "to not have to think" seems a bit oversimplifying
It isn't
I'd say its because its a large group with what are supposed to be "reasonable authorities"
The whole false notion of "common cultural ground" exists to not question *why* it is the ground truth.
aka: your priest should be well educated and have a bright mind and guide you along the right path
or w/e
lol
I'm a pastor's kid
Nobody should hold a pastor or priest in that sort of position
they are just peoe
thats their job though?
nope
thats why people call them "father"
they are a "parental figure"
that's tradition
and shouldn't be seen that way
okay
so what are they there for
to read the bible? you can do that yourself
exactly
and any good pastor or priest will tell you to fucking read it for yourself
so you're telling me that your dad, the pastor, is only there to read the bible, and thats it?
why do you pay him
he was a church planter
(not you specifically)
(missionary)
That's what they do, they get you to read the bible
a pastor is an orator, like a teacher/professor.
okay, you could do that just as well with a community
and what do they orate?
lessons
of?
whatever it is they decide to discuss
Echo chambers.
