I think it’s funny when religions don’t like outsiders to analyze their books, practices, and beliefs. Especially to compare them to other religions..

Ik you want to be “the right one” but you’re all saying the same thing, in different words and terms..

We all hold the puzzle pieces, but don’t want to add it to the puzzle table.. getting mad at each other for saying “hey, your piece fits here!”

Religion is just a bunch of cults arguing over whose interpretation of the same thing is correct.
Exactly..

Also.. You said the same thing I did, in different words. Just like they do. LETS ARGUE ABOUT THIS RN! @Ducky

@deathfairy I suppose I did. Didn’t even realize. 😳

Thanks for BA, anyway. 😅

“[R]eligion was the race's first (and worst) attempt to make sense of reality. It was the best the species could do at a time when we had no concept of physics, chemistry, biology or medicine. We did not know that we lived on a round planet, let alone that the said planet was in orbit in a minor and obscure solar system, which was also on the edge of an unimaginably vast cosmos that was exploding away from its original source of energy. We did not know that micro-organisms were so powerful and lived in our digestive systems in order to enable us to live, as well as mounting lethal attacks on us as parasites. We did not know of our close kinship with other animals. We believed that sprites, imps, demons, and djinns were hovering in the air about us. We imagined that thunder and lightning were portentous. It has taken us a long time to shrug off this heavy coat of ignorance and fear, and every time we do there are self-interested forces who want to compel us to put it back on again.”

― Christopher Hitchens, The Portable Atheist: Essential Readings for the Nonbeliever
I’m not sure how it all went so backwards because we didn’t even need to understand any of those concepts. We just lived it. Or our ancestors did, living with the flow of life. The seasons, the inner compass we are taught not to hear anymore because there is a “sky daddy” somewhere in the clouds, not feeling the source that is within us all. @BlueSkyKing

‘Twas such holy fun ^.^

@MethDozer
Giiiirrrrrrl it’s 5% Friday.

Why you setting the holy ones on fire with argumentative rage?! 🤣
The funny thing is, I will be bored of this post in like 10 mins because it’s so blatantly obvious how religion is used to isolate us and separate us and control us. @Teggy
@deathfairy lolz. We similar in that sense eh 😁
Because most religious doctrines are built to exclude other religions. The majority are implicit about this.
Yeah, separation is the best way to not have anyone question the very things that will crumble their foundations. @TheDeathOCuHullainn
@deathfairy Exactly, you cannot have monotheistic religions acknowledging that polytheistic religions have a point, for example.
And don’t dare compare them side by side to shed light on them both.. or all of them in general. or question the things a group of some crusty beard necks decided what others should follow..

It seems we are all moving so backwards, but then talking to others like you makes me realize that we just need to keep talking and connecting. @TheDeathOCuHullainn
