The logical gymnastics and emotional anguish this clearly causes believers is truly hilarious and pathetic.  Rather then admit their god is bad and not worthy of worship, they live a self made prison of willful ignorance.

God is not great.

I was a talking to a muslim about her religion a few days ago and this was one of the main gripes she had against the christian religion. She couldnt wrap her head around how their god could throw them into eternal hellfire for a single fuckup. Even with the worst offenders in Islam hell's always equal to a prison sentence after which they ascend to heaven.

Narcissism and hubris.  The want, and need, to be loved and to be the center of the universe is very strong.  I can't deny it has seduced me.  Throw in a little death anxiety and you have a believer.

Commie you're a great poster, even though we've had our disagreements you've always been one of the few that I've been glad the shroomery has managed to keep around.

Eternal hell is a characteristic of islam.  Also, the lack of an eternal hell is present in certain christian sects.  I was raised under evangelical christianity, they rejected hell for this very reason.

Not according to her particular interpretation of it. She and her family are a part of one of the more rare progressive sects. I forget its name but they're all about tolerance and forgiveness. Its the main reason they were hunted down and exiled from most of the major Islamic countries. Her and her family actually got chased out of Pakistan because of it.

I think its human nature to have violent thoughts and suppositions. we are animals afterall, our neural and hormonal behaviors in constant flux, and on top of that we gotta work those behaviors into this higher cognition afforded through the development of our prefrontal cortex.

What surprises me the most is that it is taking so soo long for us to rise up as a collective human mentality past the bullshit survival behaviors of the animal community, which includes all the manipulative behaviors in which others are subjugated for personal advantage, aka, most religious manuscripts. I believe God is waiting for those who can rise above these types of mentalities, and it has no intentions of eternal torture... just an opinion.

I cant wrap my head around, how so many people in the modern world full of science and technology still raise and believe in a mythical creature no more real and with no more proof than say a dragon. You cant run a proper country when over half of your people think mythical creatures are real and not only that but to believe in idiotic laws that PEOPLE create and than idiot followers think that the mythical creature wrote them. Not to mention it being part of certain countries political system.

And then throw in the climate change deniers ahaha

Why do dumb kids still make anti christian threads on the shroomery?

Couldn't preach to more of a choir, just shut up.
