Most Christians have no idea where their own religion came from via /r/atheism

Most Christians have no idea where their own religion came from One of those social media preacher kids came up to me on the street recently. The kind with a backward hat, a ring light, and a mic in your face asking if you believe in Jesus. I said no. He looked stunned. Then I asked him a few basic questions about his own religion. It fell apart instantly. He didn’t know that Paul never met Jesus. He didn’t know that Paul’s letters were written before the Gospels. He had no idea the Gospels were written decades after Jesus died, by anonymous Greek authors who weren’t eyewitnesses. No clue that Matthew and Luke copied from Mark. No idea the resurrection stories contradict each other completely. He had never heard that the earliest Gospel, Mark, ends with no resurrection appearances at all. He couldn’t explain why Jesus’s birth is dated to two completely different time periods in Matthew and Luke. One says it happened under Herod, who died in 4 BCE. The other says it was during the census under Quirinius in 6 CE. That’s a ten-year gap. One Gospel has Jesus’s family fleeing to Egypt. The other says they went straight back to Nazareth. And when I brought up the Trinity, he said it’s all over Scripture. I asked him to show me where Jesus defines it. He couldn’t. Because he didn’t know the Trinity is a post-biblical doctrine created by Church councils in the fourth century. Same with the New Testament canon. He didn’t realize it was the Catholic Church that decided which books made it into the Bible. Evangelicals claim they just follow Scripture, but they’re following a table of contents that Rome gave them. Most Christians have no idea that Paul barely talks about Jesus’s life, teachings, or miracles that Judas dies two different ways in Matthew and Acts that the Gospels can’t agree on who found the tomb, who was there, or what they saw that John rewrites everything with a totally different voice and message that the last twelve verses of Mark were added later that doctrines like the Trinity, the virgin birth, and parts of the resurrection story evolved over time But they’ll still tell you you’re going to hell for not believing it. If you’re going to preach to strangers on the sidewalk, maybe start by understanding where the magical sacred book came from. I seriously think the majority of Christians think “Mark, Matthew, Luke, and John” watched Jesus go around and then got together right after he died and wrote down everything exactly as it happened. They obviously just cherrypick feel good verses and have never actually read and compared all the wild contradictions haha. Jesus can be whatever you want him to be…. That is what the writers of the gospels and Paul did! Submitted August 05, 2025 at 07:27AM by Low_Crazy_7744 (From Reddit https://ift.tt/4nLSu3y)

I’m sorry to say this but if the masses can still defend their religion when the top brass in their churches are protecting pedophiles, it won’t suddenly stop in politics None of this Epstein stuff is gonna change how they vote. If anything they are now victims in their minds and will continue to believe they can fix themselves by being and doing the exact same thing and preaching their bullshit ways like they’ve done for thousands of years.

This probably rubs people the wrong way but I genuinely believe that religious people have lower IQs or intelligence. via /r/atheism

This probably rubs people the wrong way, but I genuinely believe that religious people have lower IQs or intelligence. I know people have been indoctrinated, but so was I. When I was 12, I sensed something fishy when people talked about religion and God. Later, when I actually read the holy books, it confirmed my doubts. I remember when I was about 9 years old in school, a kid in our class died, and another kid said he would kill himself to go to heaven and give the kid who died a present. I chuckled, I guess I was a bit of a jerk. I couldn’t believe how dumb that sounded. I read both the Bible and the Quran. The Quran was so ridiculous it made the Bible look good by comparison. Seriously, it’s hard for me to see how any adult could believe this stuff. I even started looking down on my own mother. Can someone help me understand other people’s perspectives better?

Try and be helpful and they just get upset at you....... via /r/atheism

Try and be helpful and they just get upset at you....... I work a customer service job and I had someone come in who was being a bit argumentative about how things are done. I explained the rationale for the procedures, and they said that God told them it would be a different way. I simply said that there were medications and treatments if you are hearing voices, and you might seek professional help. For some reason, they got all upset......

Family member says "Men are more deserving of work/jobs than women." via /r/atheism

Family member says "Men are more deserving of work/jobs than women." I 16F was talking about something concerning women. (I'm not sure what. Only that it's about work) and a family member jumped in (Female might I add!) and she replied that men should be prioritized over women in jobs because now men can't find jobs because women took all of them. And that now they can't find wives who can raise children and do simple "wife things" She said that women shouldn't be taking men's jobs and should instead focus on raising children and taking care of their husband. I said nothing because I was speechless and because I didn't want to get in trouble. She told me to think about the true role of women instead of whatever "this was". (she was a Corporate women before retiring btw!!) When people say stupid shit like this How can I reply in a polite way that can still get my point across?! I hate it when I can't say anything back because I'll be called "disrespectful" Submitted August 04, 2025 at 04:48PM by Lost_Fisherman_1438 (From Reddit https://ift.tt/tP3Yw7k)

Idea for an anti-Bible campaign to combat cringe billboards via /r/atheism

Idea for an anti-Bible campaign to combat cringe billboards As I was driving on the PA Turnpike I kept seeing cringy billboards like “There is evidence for God” and of course it cites a bible verse as evidence. These billboards triggered a thought to run a counter campaign that I would call something like KnowYourBible.com and then buy space on a bunch of a billboards and put the nastiest bible verses up like Ezekiel 23:20 - “She lusted after lovers with genitals as large as a donkey’s and emissions like those of a horse.” What other bible verses would make for great counter billboards?
