Religions should be banned

@SW-User They do that in the communist countries... dictatorships especially hate religion 🤔

SW-User
@WoodyAq I hate all sorts of religions and cults
WoodyAq · M
@SW-User So do dictators... though hopefully for different reasons.

@SW-User Religion does create a lot of problems. Does taking away freedom of religion cause its own set of problems though? Should anyone really have the power to say what people can and cannot believe in their own minds?

sure

@Magnolia people are brainwashed since the day they’re born. It’s been happening for generations which is why religion is still alive. If people weren’t brainwashed from birth they wouldn’t believe in the stuff they otherwise do

@SW-User I agree that people are indoctrinated into religion all the time. What about personal spiritual beliefs though?

SW-User
@Magnolia once someone is old enough they can make their own decisions about what they want to believe in or not. That’s none of anyone’s business. But I’m against the religions brainwashing people
Magnolia · 31-35, F
@SW-User I absolutely agree with you
WoodyAq · M
@SW-User Just religion brainwashing? Or are you against brainwashing in general?

SW-User
@WoodyAq it’s mostly religious people who do the brainwashing. But obviously who isn’t against brainwashing?
WoodyAq · M
@SW-User I don't agree. I faced a lot of brainwashing in public schools. Our system is relatively open, but in most countries it is (mostly secular) governments doing the brainwashing.

SW-User
@WoodyAq related to what?
WoodyAq · M
@SW-User Depends on the government.
