It's estimated that about 84% of the world's population believes, in some manner, shape or form, in one or more deities presiding over us humans - the masters of our own destiny.
Imagine that. 84%. It's both hilarious and disheartening to think that those 84%, who've never once been able to give irrefutable, unassailable evidence of said-deity living among us or even visiting us, STILL believe in the religion they've been brainwashed with from an early age - religion designed to keep humanity's natural inclination to be hedonistic, in check.
Imagine that. 84% of the world's population, being utter morons.

Go FUCK yourself. I'm agnostic. YOU'RE the cunt who made the claim. I don't know a GOD DAMN THING about the origin of our existence or what happens to us after the heart expires. But NEITHER DO YOU. And yet here we are and you tell me your fucking SPACE FAIRY is real. Show me, then. I've seen some weird shit. I'm pretty open-minded. I'm sure I won't fucking die of SHOCK.
Now give me all your "tips fedora" pictures and moronic replies, you DUMB FUCKS.

>>936441477Cool story, bro. I'll have esteemed scientists look further into that. Thanks for the info!

>>936441299 (OP)Fuck, atheists are as annoying as evangelists nowadays. Itโs bad enough having pushy fuckers knocking on your door trying to convert you to their holier-than-thou shit, now weโve got pushy fuckers trying to convert you to literally nothing?
>>936441950I'm not atheist. I'm agnostic. I'm sorry you can't read more than two paragraphs of text.
>>936441299 (OP)Itโs beginningโฆ the beginning of the end. You are only the sign of the times.
>>936442363Do you have a single fact to back that up?
>>936442293If you were truly agnostic, you would be totally neutral. Yet you have clearly taken a side seeing how absolutely butt devastated you are that people out in the world believe in a dirty of some kind. So I tip my fedora to you, you closet atheist.
>>936442429>Yet you have clearly taken a sideThat's correct. And you know what that side is? The absolute WASTE of trillions upon trillions of dollars and the planet's precious RESOURCES on the worship of shit that may or may not EXIST. FUCK YOU for spending my taxpayer dollars on it. FUCK YOU for promoting it to others without providing solid fact that your viewpoint is right.
But most of all? FUCK YOU for shoving that unverified shit down my kids' throats. "Taken a side"? You're fucking RIGHT I've taken a side. Eat SHIT.

Most people have strong reactions to religion, but these immediate responses often block deeper understanding. When we question more carefully, religion becomes puzzling: What exactly counts as religious? How is it different from secular approaches to life's big questions?
This confusion opens real learning. Religion operates like complex literature - working at multiple levels simultaneously. It provides practical guidance, resources for dealing with suffering and death, and engagement with ultimate questions about meaning that pure rationality can't answer.
All human cultures create ways of addressing ultimate questions about meaning, death, and moral obligation. Even secular societies develop commitments that function religiously. We're all "religious" in making commitments about what matters most.
Religion proves important because it provides structured ways of engaging humanity's deepest questions - not through easy answers but by creating communities that support sustained inquiry into what makes life meaningful. Like transformative literature, authentic religious engagement changes the questioner.
Religion addresses unavoidable questions about how to live meaningfully facing uncertainty, suffering, and death. Its importance emerges through engagement - through willingness to enter genuine conversation with traditions that have helped humans navigate ultimate questions for millennia.
Attacking religion for lacking scientific proof is like criticizing poetry for inaccurate weather reporting - it addresses religion where it doesn't primarily operate.
>>936443018I read all of that. And that's fine. Religion *does* help people cope with their pathetic lives. But you keep that fucking shit at HOME. Where you don't POISON people with it. Be fucking spiritual on your OWN expense.
>>936441299 (OP)Agnostic is based. I would however suggest you take time to study proven phenomena and how there's more than sufficient data points to forge the basis of recognizable patterns. I don't subscribe to any religions, but I do believe in higher life forms and quasi-real entities.

The more you know, the more you know that there's more that you don't know. Humanity isn't even a Type I civilization on the Kardeshev scale yet. Future technologies (or hidden existing ones) might yield the capacities for studies into verifiable information that may relate to the subject of "dieties" and the like.
>>936443394Kardeshev scale is a meme based on unrealistic, overly-simplistic Cold War-era speculation. Why the fuck do people take it seriously?
>>936443500I'm with you on that, but I use it rhetorically for lack of a better example. It's something the mainstream pseuds can grasp onto that illustrates a simple point.
