What does /u/ think about religion

|


| Faith-based builds are severely underpowered and are only ever useful in co-op and ganking. So, they're for fucking immoral scrubs.


| Every major religion is stupid, primitive and has held back progress for decades, but what am I to tell people what to believe in. As long as they're chill and not telling me to burn in hell, it's w/e


| As a bisexual who desperately wants to transition but can't because of my religious parents, I hate it. It has ruined not only my life but millions of others lives, in my old Christian school there was a group of kids who would get kicked out for various reasons, and they constantly lived in fear of being expelled. Gays, lesbians, trans people, you name it. And if there was even just a rumor that you weren't straight and cis, the school would do their best to getting expelled asap.


| Religion (churches) sucks dick , faith in a god is a very good thing tho.


| Thighs

I'm sorry and send you hugs (no homo). I think true christianity doesnt' care your orientation and gender.


| I think you're allowed to practice whatever religion you want just don't force it onto people


| Christianity is a blasphemous hypocrite religion.


| >>361171 if only there was "true christianity".Most people more preffer to be a herd and always listen to priests without any doubt in his words than thinking "maybe i should not be this mean to gay/lesbi/any other people with different view on world.. just because its a good thing to do?". Good example today is russian church that has so much pover and control over the people they become a part of goverment as near perfect machine of propaganda.1/2


| So in the end with russia we get the true christianity - people ready to kill for being gay, they listen every word of church, belive that russia nation choicen by god himself(like nazi did) and blablabla... why i mention russia? Well, to show that christianity as all other religions are nothing but a tool to control people and always will be - there can be some nice people but as long as any religion exist there always gonna be people that ready to kill you for being different2/2


| God was a dream of good government.


| >>361303
By true christianity I mean Love and so. Yeah, I know, I'm russian.


| My religion is more based on spiritualism and self improvement. I never liked Christianity and the other like them, they just look too wrong to my eye.


| >>361378 Love has nothing to do with christianity. I'm so sick of christians co opting love like it's their schtick. Yeah we saw how loving all are during the crusades. And the inquisition. And during segregation. And now when it comes to human rights.

Christianity is loving in the same way an abusive child rapist is loving, they'll say "I love you" but all they ever deliver is hate.


| Sorry that got a little heated.


| Not religious, but i don't really have anything against religion - for every example of a religion doing something bat in society there's one of one doing something good even if it's still factually incorrect. Sets of ideas like religion can't just float above society, they have material and political roots - religion doesn't cause bigotry, violence etc, it reflects them.


| You need not be religious to be bigoted. So long as people exist, bigotry in some form will exist. Religion is just the lowest hanging fruit of the scapegoat tree- followed soon after by government, hobbies, and free will.

> "i dont know how important the hellenic religion was to greek and roman societies"
> "i dont know what the islamic golden age was"
> "i dont know that multiple prominent middle age philosophers and scientists were devout catholics"

do some actual historical research before you say things that make you look like a clown


| One of the strongest internet trigger bait


| >>361600 I miss the old pagan religions. This monotheism crap od bogus.


| >>361600
There was diversity and freedom in islamic golden age, you know. Not that "my religion is the most true one and you must accept it" shit.


| >>361619
exactly my point, g/u/rl! so many people spout off this very narrow an uniformed view of organised religion, while being totally ignorant of the history of the religions theyre talking about


| >>361618
boudica should have won


| Fake and gay


| >>361600 I've never heard of the islamic golden age, what is it?


| >>361740
look up "the baghdad house of wisdom" and read on from there


| >>41214e then the Mongols were naaaa


| >>361600
Greco-Roman religion was more of a way to control the masses and inspire soldiers during war... Not that different from nowadays I suppose.


| >>40bc0d a bit more than that mate, notherfucker halted attacks and eat shit cause they were preparing a sacrifice for a chronicle for good fortune.


| >>360857
they deserved it


| One other religion propping up nowadays is science it self, im an atheist myself and hate when people blindly accept something because "science said so", that goes against the very core of science itself.
Not trying to be a weeb but fullmetal alchemist kinda touches on that subject although lightly and mostly on the end


| *full metal alchemist brotherhood though


| >>360857
muh bisexuality


| I am militant atheists and think religious thinking should be eradicated and religious objects like churches converted to museums and factories.


| >>362111
>Converting churches into factories
How the fuck would you even do that, there's not a single part of the structure that is salvageable for that purpose.


| >>362112 soviets somehow did it


| >>362112 there was unfinished church where I live who was converted to radio factory during Soviet times, now it's church again


| >>362111 oh shit look out guys this titanic intellect has seen all three seasons of rick and morty, theres no hope for us brainlets now


| >>362351 never seen Rick and Morty. just don't like religion.


| I recently played Frostpunk and there some sort of temples gave a boost to research speed to nearby factories. That was awkward but funny. Also that game remembered me that religion, faith can really unite and give a hope. Being used in a proper way.


| >>362394 oh yeah that's s good game, played it recently. But I still think religion can be replaced by cultural icons and science in general.
