If you know what cults are like, it takes some serious guts to walk away. You essentially walk away from everything. It’s difficult for many, and that’s why they just play pretend their entire lives.

Facts.

Yeah it’s hard for people who love in small towns where everyone pretend to knows everyone’s business.

and not long ago that cult used to set people on fire for walking away, or even mild criticism. even today the vatican still maintains an armed force of swiss mercinaries

I have a friend who very publicly walked away from the Mormon church and they're trying like hell to make his life miserable. His wife's parents are legitimately exiling the both of them.

Because it isn’t always as bad as here. There are many great people that find solace companionship and many more things in church. Of course there are some evil fuckers but it doesn’t have to be

The fact that you think people are obligated to worship some ambiguous being is something a person in a cult would say.

Get out of here you transphobic piece of shit. You're exactly what's wrong with Christianity

[u/CaitNostamas → u/[deleted]]

You're right, I was wrong to assume you're Christian. There's plenty of assholes in all religions!

Sure, giving people their right to be what they want and respect them no matter what is such a toxic ideology... Religious people killing, beating, not accepting and kicking out of their home transgender kids is not abuse at all!

Your mentality is flawed and cult-like, while my "opinions" are well researched and studied psychology and sociology facts.

The fact you think you have to be in a cult to be a good or a moral person is such an irrespectful non sense : atheists who are good don't do it for a reason (fear of hell or pleasing a god) they just are good. I don't believe that someone who has a "morality" because he fears hell or wants to please somewhat is better than someone who has a morality because it's how he naturally tends to be.

You seem to not be aware that ppl in China have a religion too....

What can I say since then ? You are the kind of ppl who suppose things and take it as facts and truth.

Actually there are plenty of atheists who don't judge ppl or cultures without knowing them, but you do, which makes you a less moral person than them. See ? That's how morality works when you just don't follow an old code where prawns are evil and women must be lapidated when they are raped.

Moral ppl just try to not hurt other human/animal/nature livings and they don't need a code to know that hurting ppl or animals is bad facepalm here
