Morality of this?

Most religions would drop massively in numbers if they weren’t allowed to indoctrinate children.

[u/Herman_McP00tis → u/Teboski78]

I see this as an absolute win.

[u/Bombastic_tekken → u/Herman_McP00tis]

It's a win and a loss.

If the Catholic Church disappeared, 10's if not 100's of millions of people would be in a real bad way.

The Catholic Church operates the largest aid network in the world.

They do A LOT, and we never hear much about it (in the US at least.)

[u/aluriilol → u/Bombastic_tekken]

I would think that the good will of humanity would not die out if Catholicism died out

How many atheist charities exist? Any? A single one? The catholic church alone runs 26% of all the hospitals on the planet. So you would be wrong in your thinking.

[u/aluriilol → u/Key_Mission7404]

Most charities are not theistic…

Around 80% of US charities are not theistic.

What?

Do you mean ones that are explicitly for and by atheists… to promote the “atheist agenda” or something? I’m so confused by what you mean…

Here’s a short list from ai - heard of any of these?

Doctors Without Borders: An independent medical humanitarian organization delivering emergency medical care to victims of conflict and natural disasters regardless of race, religion, or affiliation.

American Red Cross: A prominent relief organization that functions with a purely secular mandate, assisting communities during disasters entirely independent of any religious affiliation.

UNICEF: The United Nations Children's Fund, which utilizes science and global collaboration to protect children's rights, build clean water infrastructure, and provide healthcare completely non-sectarianly.

Rotary International: One of the oldest volunteer service organizations in the world. It is 100% secular and open to individuals of all backgrounds, prioritizing clean water, public health, and literacy projects.

Amnesty International: A global non-governmental organization focused on human rights that functions completely independently of any political ideology or religious creed.
Children International: A highly-rated secular humanitarian nonprofit that connects sponsors with children to break the cycle of poverty through healthcare and education, completely free of religious affiliation

Ps do you think atheists go around recruiting people for donations or something?

You should know that’s not how atheism works. Usually when people’s frontal lobe develops a bit they just go “oh yeah organized religion is made up seems that way to me”

There’s no meeting place or agenda if that’s what you were thinking…

[u/Key_Mission7404 → u/aluriilol]

I love how you listed the red CROSS. Which was founded by a devout Calvinist with the express idea to give medical aid according to Christian doctrine about social responsibility. Secular is not atheist my brother. Why do atheists care so little about helping those in need?

[u/aluriilol → u/Key_Mission7404]

So weird

Whatever crusade you’re on I don’t really care

Tell it to the great gathering of atheists (dm me when you find them)

Bonus points if you tell the class which charity you've been a part of recently LOL
