Hearing The Story Of Abraham & Issac Really Fucked Me Up As A Kid. The Actions Of The Adults Around Me

Yes, the mythology fandom won’t wish death or eternal torture upon someone because of their mythology, unlike christians.

It's a lot easier to deal with Christians around Christmas when you start thinking about the religion as mythology.

Treat the stories the same way we treat Greek or Roman mythology.

Christians are just all part of the Jesus fandom.

I think more women would care about men's issues if men stopped using discussions of women's oppression as the one and only instance to bring up men's issues. More often than not, men's problems are brought up to deflect from the conversation at hand and silence women.

people will defend Christianity like "but it's comforting to me!" like but you believing I will go to hell and my life is morally reprehensible is not comforting to me. If you take comfort in hell then something is wrong with you

Just saw another "if you hurt people because of your faith you don't really have any faith" post, and wanted to point out once again that this weird thing we do where we pretend that "real" religion is incapable of doing harm isn't doing us any favors. Of course people with "real" faith can hurt people! Christians beat their queer kids because they have real faith that being queer gets you tortured forever after you die, and that beating kids is a 100% god-approved activity! India's beef vigilantes kill their Muslim neighbors because they have real faith that cows are sacred animals that shouldn't be killed!

Stop this No True Scotsman shit! All it does is cede the moral high ground in every situation to religious belief, automatically agreeing that religion makes you a better person, and anything that makes you a worse person can't be religion.
