I really struggle to comprehend how anyone in 2023 believes any of the dumb shit in The Bible

The hedonism that has taken over modern society has made people think they’ll look cool and be accepted more if they disrespect religion
@SW-User Or maybe people are just sick of being dictated to by morons that believe in a bronze-age fairytale
SW-User
@TheDeathOfOzymandiaz you sound more like a rebellious teenager than a balanced adult lol
@SW-User Does that bother you? 😂
SW-User
@TheDeathOfOzymandiaz nope just funny lol
@SW-User You don't think that the idea of the Garden of Eden or the earth being only a few thousand years old sounds a little ridiculous? What about ghosts or angels? You think those are real too? Have you ever seen one? Why haven't they been captured by the military and put in a lab yet for study?
SW-User
@goneNow6565 just because you think it’s ridiculous doesn’t mean that nobody has ever seen or experienced it
@SW-User I mean I could say the same thing about vampires
@SW-User then afterwards say when you laugh at me that you don't have faith
@SW-User It doesn't take much to amuse you in that case, good for you.
SW-User
@goneNow6565 that is a weird deflection from God, or even the supernatural like ghosts etc

@SW-User spot on. Atheistic hedonists are just trendy dorks looking for a place to fit in.
SW-User
@SamInAZ I see them all around campus and they all got the same zombie like soulless look and their energy is off too
@SW-User @SamInAZ trying to fit in...I am 42 years old and a US Army vet, after all the bullshit I have been through the last thing I care about it is trying to fit in

if I wanted to fit in I would just tell people I believe in stupid shit like Jesus like 80% of the country
@SW-User @SamInAZ also why would anyone want to fit in, anonymously on SW
nobody wants to address their belief in ghosts or angels that comes with being a christian because that would make them have to realize they are full of shit
@SW-User actually it is because of this belief in religious bullshit that people are murdering each other this very moment in Isreal

cause the land was given to them by "god"
SW-User
@goneNow6565 so when ppl kill each other over finances do you ask to get rid of the concept of money too? Stop blaming crimes on only religion
@SW-User still nobody explained to me why they know ghosts or angels are real....nobody will dare address that
@SW-User 🤦
@SW-User violence will always happen, but religion provides a reason
SW-User
@goneNow6565 The supernatural is proven by experience, not sure why it disturbs you so much that people believe in God
@SW-User "supernatural is proven by experience"

but experience can be measured

if ghosts and angels exist why isn't their existence proven by science?
SW-User
@goneNow6565 if your heart isn’t open to experiencing the supernatural and God don’t blame it on religion
@SW-User well if you are just going to tell me you believe in magic and I am not open to believing in that bullshit then I have nothing to say

gods are the product of religions (created by humans), religions and gods are not separate things
