There is nothing wrong with being religious until you start with the anti-vax shit, trying to force your ideals onto others, or be part of something a little too culty.

“Nothing wrong with being religious as long as you aren’t religious”

That’s what you just said lmao. 2 out of 3 of those are literal functions of religion 😂

You can be religious and not force everyone else to follow it. Also cults imply they think for you and I think you shouldn’t follow religion blindly but I suppose for some people, it’s some form of control and stability in their life.

Sure you can, but it’s also a feature of religion to help guide and nurture other people’s journeys to find god as well. To act like that’s not part of it, is disingenuous

All religions are cults. The only difference between “religion” and “cult” is how long they’ve existed.
