#Religion Is Evil

[misandresther]

"As long as God is male, the male is God." — Mary Daly.

Men despise that women create life. That's why religions exist, they have a male god and male prophets and women supposedly exist to serve their needs and be property, our fathers, then husbands and later our son's. It's a patriarchal lie, it's not real, there is no punishment after passing for non-believers, just eternal death and possible peace.

Unpopular opinions about religion (from an atheist)

- If you need god and hell to stop you from “sinning”, maybe you’re just actually not a good person???

- The bible is fake and it has been proven that it has been rewritten many times over the centuries to match what people want it to say

- The only anti-abortion arguments are based on religious beliefs meaning that if we truly had separation of church and state it would not be a political topic, just a personal choice not to get one yourself

- The pledge of allegiance says “one nation, under god” so no one should be forced to say it if they don’t believe in it, in any setting

- They anti-LGBT+ arguments are also entirely based on religion so again shouldn’t be a political topic

- Putting god and trump in the same photo is literally against the commandments (2. Thou shalt not make false idols) so the conservative extremists who say they are christian but idolize trump are going against the their own bible

- Children shouldn’t be forced to be the same religion or religious at all until they can make choices for themselves

- Religious people should not be in healthcare if they cannot separate personal opinions/choices from what the job requires. Healthcare professionals need to base their practice on evidence based care, patient needs and science

- Churches should be taxed

- Being able to claim religious beliefs as a reason not to get vaccinated is why so many people have gotten sick or died

- Addiction and prison rehabilitation is often attributed to “finding god” so again if god is the only reason you are good, maybe you just aren’t a that good of a person (addiction is a disease and should be treated as such)

- It’s literally so delusional to believe that some higher power created all of existence

- Again saying you hear or see god is just visual or auditory hallucinations indicating mental illness

- Being an atheist I live so freely with no religious guilt or desire to please some made up person. I still treat all people with care and respect because I have the desire to be good for no one but myself and those around me

- If there was a god why doesn’t he answer prayers? I prayed for most of my childhood to stop being molested by my sister and he never once answered. Now I live with cPTSD and depression because of it and I am not the only one

- Religion stops people from acting without bias and it costs many lives

- World peace could have been a thing if there was no religion to start wars and separate people

- Saying “all lives matter” but then turning around and voting for trump is a contradiction because his policies don’t include all lives

Just my opinion tho🤷🏼‍♀️

Reality holds true...

It's amazing how humans pretend to be so advanced in 2024 but then still believe in god(s) even though we literally went through a period in history where we realized that just because we can't explain something does not mean it's magic and that science, as it progresses, explains everything.

"Big bang is just a theory!"

Yes, it is a theory, and it's amazing that we could even figure that out with science. Going back so far, before even dinos existed. If anything, that theory is proof that with science, we will progress till we do have an explanation of the creation of the universe.

You know what doesn't help us progress but instead staggers progress? The belief that everything was created by a magical deity which is why we need to abandon science because some things just can't be explained otherwise.

"Evolution is just a theory!"

That has continued to be proven year after year after year after year after year. A theory that has more proof of being the truth than any god anywhere in this world.

Stop with this "If you can't disprove it, imma keep believing it." It is actually retarded. It basically says that if I make up an unprovable and un-disprovable character in the sky, then I should keep believing in that character just because no one can prove or disprove it. And not only that but I should use that character to make real life decisions that impact the real people around me? Like medical decisions that impact people's daily life?

"Well according to my religion, abortion bad!" So you are gonna make a woman through physical and psychological torture because of your made up sky character????? You are fucked up. Religion is fucked up. It doesn't make sense.

SUNDAY!

[optimisticcannibalism]

Seeing queers desperately cling to a bullshit religion invented to enslave uterus havers as sex slaves makes me sad. Though it does inspire me to finally get going on my anti theist fantasy series about how organized religions exist to give men power and take your money.

"ask why they want an audience of children," weird how they seems to always apply to chistians. At this point I'd be more comfortable leaving my kid with a random drag queen than a well known ""good"" christian because at least the drag queen wouldn't harm the kid, fill their head will nonsense and try to rape them...

[soup-mother]

"and that's what missionary work SHOULD look like" no it shouldn't exist at all actually. even within their own country. preying on homeless people and the ill is bad too yknow? can't believe that's something i have to explain.

the whole "just lead by example and people might be interested in joining" thing still fundamentally surrenders to the idea that spreading Christianity is good and important (it's not!)

[nando161mando]

Do you think if you were Christian, you would be treated with respect in Jerusalem? Oh dear, think again.

[vivus09]

Theoretically, if god is real, the first thing I'm doing when I die is smacking the shit out of that cocksucker for making me go through all this shit.

It probably didn’t come as that much of a surprise that the Rabbinical Mercenaries were duped into believing that they were on Coregatedstielio II to defeat some enemy of the Holy Temple.

How unfortunate that the mercenaries were so married to their beliefs that they didn’t question why they hadn’t seen a Coregatedstielian in the flesh even once.

“You are the guarantor of the morality you find in (your) scripture.”

-Dr. Samuel Harris-

Meaning to say, religion is not the genesis of morality.

[statisticalcats2]

I feel like there's this weird like... mirroring of white man's burden where instead of the burden being to "civilize" non-whites, the burden is to help preserve their culture but in the most racist way possible by acting like BIPOC would never come up with concepts like democracy or gender/race/class equality or secularism on their own and it's not just bad for white people to force themselves into BIPOC cultures and try to change, it's also bad for the BIPOC cultures themselves to try and change and all the human rights activists, democracy supporters, and secularists are traitors brainwashed by the West and it's right for their governments to suppress, abuse, imprison, and murder them.

[idolomantises]

I’ve said this before, but I always found stories that frame heaven as “evil” and hell as “good” (or less bad) to be genuinely boring. I like more nuanced approaches to each realm.

I understand that for a lot of people, Christianity is a religion they like to criticize and mock, but I feel like if you don’t even understand the fundamentals of the religion, why even attempt to critique it?

Harvard Just Released its Final Report on Antisemitism and Anti-Israel Bias.

It’s 300+ pages and pretty devastating to read.

I thought I knew what was going on at Harvard, but even I wasn't prepared for this.

#1 A Jewish student was told they couldn’t share the story of their Holocaust-survivor grandfather’s rescue efforts because he helped Jews reach British Mandate Palestine. Organizers said it was “not tasteful” and “inherently one-sided” because it mentioned Israel.

#2 Many Jewish and Israeli students were told their presence was offensive. Some were asked to denounce Israel to be considered “one of the good ones.” This came from every part of campus including peers, instructors, and faculty.

#3 Jewish students on academic trips were told their “Jewish tradition had become indistinct from a settler-colonial project.” Some were told they shared guilt for "atrocities" committed by Israel.

#4 After Oct 7, Jewish students faced an avalanche of hatred on anonymous apps. This digital harassment contributed heavily to a climate of fear and isolation. Posts saying “Israel deserved it” were upvoted.

“It was surprising to see educated people post such horrible things”

#5 Some students posted images reading “Decolonization is not a metaphor” with blood dripping from the text labeled as Jewish blood. Other posts regularly used terms like “Israeli scum” and “Zionist dirtbags.”

#6 Israeli students had it particularly hard. Many avoided certain degree programs, courses, and class discussions because of antisemitic hostility. One said they felt every comment was filtered through: “The Israeli is speaking.”

#7 One administrator told a Jewish student they were in “a whole world of trouble” for deleting horrifically offensive antisemitic posts from a group chat.

#8 At a Harvard Law event for the families of the hostages, Harvard chose to move the Jewish students for safety reasons while protestors roamed around freely.

“They walk around like they own the place.”

#9 As we well know, chants like “Globalize the Intifada” were widespread on campus. Many Israeli students on campus survived the Second Intifada and said that hearing it chanted daily was traumatizing. Anyone who spent time in Israel during that period knows what they mean.

#10 At a Harvard’s Center for Middle Eastern Studies event in Harvard Divinity School, Oct 7 was described as an attack on “Israeli Jewish settlements.” in an effort to dehumanize the victims and erase the civilian massacre that took place.

#11 At the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Healths "Palestine Program", Israel was portrayed as existing only to oppress Palestinians. When Jewish students raised concerns, they were asked, “Who is more marginalized, Jews or Palestinians?”

#12 In a university-wide survey, most respondents said they do not feel safe expressing their political views. They feared academic or professional consequences.

Some shocking stats from Jewish students. 👇

Jewish students were twice as likely as their non-Jewish, non-Muslim peers to feel unwelcome and unsafe at Harvard.

Responding to a slightly differently worded question, even larger percentages of Jewish students (67%) expressed discomfort sharing their opinions in general, with that number rising to 73% when it came to expressing political opinions. Students who are neither Muslim nor Jewish were 20 percentage points less likely to express such discomfort.

Almost 60% of Jewish students reported experiencing "discrimination, stereotyping, or negative bias on campus due to [their] views on current events," and only 25% believed that there was no "academic or professional penalty" at Harvard for expressing their views.

#13 The rest of the report continues in much the same vein, though it places significant emphasis on anti-Muslim hate which I found odd, given that a separate report was commissioned to address that.

This report is a damning indictment of the most prestigious university in America.

That it took Trump getting elected to force change is an embarrassment.

That the president quit because she couldn’t say calling for genocide is wrong is shameful.

Can anyone seriously imagine Harvard treating any other minority the way it treated Jews over the past year and a half?

The utter disdain and complete disregard for their well-being is visible on nearly every page of this report.

I'm not optimistic that this report will change anything.

But it guess it's a start.

Here's the full report:
