tldr: religion/atheism discouse sucks ass
#like this shit requires so much nuance#and religion is both a tool of reactionary and progressive movements#like yes a massive chunk of american homophobic and sexist legislature is a result of christian fundamentalism#but mlk was literaly a pastor who preached the gospel of social justice#and i have literally met an indiginous activist for whom enviormentalism has material cultural and spiritual value#and different religions propose completely different relationships to both the divine and other humans#and every athist has a different story as to why they're an atheist#and the resulting atheism is always a mix of individual values/politics and the norms/frameworks used in their culture/community
