Literally none of you really understand what you are mocking, and 95% of your ‘knowledge’ comes from memes and corporate news.

It is impossible to have a decent discussion with any of you, and I have been trying for YEARS.

Every circumstance is filled with ‘gotcha’ intellectual dishonesty parroted from whatever spike haired edgelad streamer you watched this week with ZERO of your own ideas in the mix.

HOW the FUCK can you hold a position that you can’t even defend without devolving into strawmanning and meme repetition? It staggers me how casually all of you just slip into this comforting ignorance that is immune to any discourse.

To be clear, I am NOT a conservative evangelical and I probably hate them more than you do, but none of you will care because ALL theists are the same to you as those ‘God hates fags’ protesters.

Oh I fucking hate every one of you but I still hate conservative evangelicals worse.

At least most of you edgelad ratheists aren’t trying to bring fascism to American.

      Do you take your opinions on theism from their poorly organized for-views rants without even considering them objectively first?

        Oh, I don’t really care about theism tbh, I just don’t believe in it. I know some people find a lot of meaning, hope, and community in their beliefs and I have no interest in arguing that’s wrong.

        It’s the conservative part I take umbrage with.

          Agreed.

          One thing you have to admit: a sense of community is missing in our world, a lot of people feel adrift and alone. Churches are places where people who share ideals can be together and those kinds of communities provide so many small, unnoticed services.

          Just that the easiest way to form a community is around a religion, and with the majority of the world being secular, the only things we can form a similar group around is media, and I don’t see anime circles and record collecting groups having quite the outreach.
