I kind of hate how just because I don't subscribe to any religion or believe in any specific god, people assume that means that I *disbelieve* in god(s)

I simply don't have much reason to think about whether or not there's a god, besides when I just want to enjoy some good old philosophical/hypothetical thinking or conversations.

Like people will hear I'm not Christian and go "how come you don't believe in god?" like no, no you misunderstand me. I don't NOT believe in god, I just don't believe in *your* god. And if your god is real, then it changes nothing about how I'm going to live my life. The Christian god is an ass and not someone I'm going to worship. I'm just gonna spend my life trying to do good, and if your god doesn't like that, then he's not a very good god, is he?

#anyways talking about religion is not something i normally do #but ive just been thinking about this today #im always hesitant to talk about Christianity because i dont want people to start some sort of war against me #accusing me of hating christians or something #the truth is Ive been severly traumatized by my experience with the Christian church #and because of that i cant really talk to or be friends with Christians anymore due to it being too triggering #but theres A LOT of variations in Christianity. some Christians arent half bad #and id like to encourage those good Christians to keep practicing their religion in a way that #benefits them without harming others :3 #i was raised to believe that i had to trust gods moral compass above my own. and yknow what fuck that #thats one belief i wont subscribe to anymore #if god disagrees with my morals thats kinda a fundamental issue for me lol
