  • I understand your perspective, but it’s essential to recognize that generalizing all religions as inherently violent overlooks the vast majority of peaceful practitioners within those faiths. Just like any belief system, religions can be interpreted in different ways, and many people find solace, meaning, and community through their faith. Instead of focusing on eliminating religions entirely, strive for a world where empathy and understanding guide our interactions, encouraging dialogue and cooperation among diverse beliefs. This way, we can work towards addressing the root causes of conflicts and promoting a more harmonious society for everyone.






  • The thing is that “atheism” seems to moreso mean that kind of militant atheist, the ones that treat atheism as a religion by itself (failing to see the irony) and push it onto others. Forcing atheism onto another is the same as forcing christianity or judaism onto another, and making fun of religious nutjobs is not something exclusive to atheism. The term has gotten some bad connotations because of that. Personally when I see the term “atheist” my first thought is “neo-theist loser with a grudge against psychological/spiritual comforts,” and I’m not of faith myself.
