#RELIGION
Jesus fucking Christ, these people are so hung up on people's ethnicity and religion they're blinded to the fact that this is a good thing! 🤦We NEED trees, we can't survive without them, no non-plant species can (and plat species can't survive without animal species). I just can't with these idiots!

Just watched the NYC mayor and Kimmel speaking on last night's show...

I'm more impressed with this young man every time I see/hear him. The right wingers hate him because of his religion and the color of his skin...or is it simply because he's a Dem?

Regardless, it shows how pathetic they all are

In the 60’ we (a group of intoxicated teens/philosophers) decided VW was a religion and one branch of believers drove beetles the other Ghia
The priests/priestesses drove the convertibles of their tribe- or maybe we were just stoned
Absolutely loved that car.

Absolutely. Theocrasy makes both government and religion worse. The same can be said for academia and religion. Social services and religion. The list goes on and on.

The blood on my teeth begins to taste like a poem, like religion, like the way you look at me.

A thoughtful skeptic and a thoughtful believer often share more intellectual virtues than either shares with dogmatism.

Are you interested in religion, culture? → C. Jalali. “Preaching to the Non-Practising: Religiosity, Chega and Electoral Change in Portugal”. In: South European Society and Politics (Apr. 2026). dx.doi.org/10.1080/13608746.2026.2649123.

The real "lesson" of #MeToo? Accusations of sexual harassment, assault were acceptable so long as it was The Right Kind Of Suspect in terms of ethnicity, religion and/or class. Once accusations flowed against The Wrong Kind Of Suspect, then it was all witch-hunts, man-haters and gold-digging sluts.
also thinking a lot about how #MeToo apparently went too far, when it’s quite obvious now that it didn’t go far enough. it didn’t really go anywhere. there were no lasting consequences of that cultural moment beyond people making jokes about it.

"Thrust you" is exactly what they've done. They've turned the Christian religion into a hard right propaganda scheme.

Mi hermana trabaja en una multinacional plagada de católicos de verdad verdad (para ella todos son OPUS 😂) y alucina. Recuerda otras enseñanzas en clase de religión, pero soltar la hostia por si acaso, antes de que te den a ti, de eso no se hablaba. Así educan a sus hijos muchos de ellos.

I suspect Christians have turned more people off spirituality than any other religion.

Saturday at 1pm I will be giving the second iteration of my "TRANScending- LGBTQ+ spirituality" panel at WPAFW.

Come hang out if you are interested. There are some new additions to the presentation.

This is not a religion panel, nor one that promotes any faith/way of thinking over another.

Can't you find/create a common space without religious indoctrination?

Also, if you think this is going to make your teen view religion more positively, wooo, have I got a bridge to sell you.

Why I Made My Teenager Go to Church
In this age when the “spiritual but not religious” seem to have more relevance than churchgoers, it’s easy to wonder why church attendance matters at all. But I believe that we need common spaces,…

would love for people to learn the difference between an ethnostate and a state where the majority of the citizens are the same ethnicity, race, or religion.

Religion and unionists are dangerous, mad, poisonous parasites

We all used to make up our own lyrics to make it more amusing, so perhaps one from every major religion to drill the religious resentment home on all fronts 🤷🏻‍♂️

Por outro lado, no Reino Unido:
Is there really a 'quiet revival' of religion among Gen Z?
A fierce debate is taking place about whether there really has been a revival in Christianity.

You’ve probably heard the term “religious trauma”? Well, meet one of its poster boys. I’m not going to define the term, I’m just going to show it to you so you can (I hope!) understand and empathize.

William James against a reductionist view of religion:

"Probably a crab would be filled with a sense of personal outrage if it could hear us class it without ado or apology as a crustacean, and thus dispose of it. 'I am no such thing,' it would say; 'I am MYSELF, MYSELF alone.'"

For a tiny bit of context, my family was close. Is close still, I guess, but not the fuck with me. I was kind of a shut in autistic kid without many close friends so I was left to try and share my interests with my family.

I was into Religion and US History and those topics were fine, for a while.

Wrote an essay about Fortune's Weave and religion, how it uses a few choice theological concepts to bolster its themes, instead of just doing the RPG trope thing of using religion when terms sound cool or as the obvious villain

Ai is like the new “religion tool” to control and manipulate

They’re getting an automated preacher🤨

And yes, if we get to hang out one day, there would be no need to say anything, we would just be sitting there, sipping beer, and staring at nature 😁
