    Religious people just love indoctrinating children. It’s their whole thing. Get them while they’re young and dumb and won’t realize it’s all just make believe bullshit.

      It makes me so angry because children are vulnerable and trusting; exploiting that to get them to believe in nonsense is evil.

    Goodbye secularism, goodbye constitution and whoever still likes what’s been the original idea behind the foundation of the United States of America.

    I thought the old testament was supposed to be irrelevant/null and void after Jeebus and the new new testament.

      But actually following Jesus’ teaching would be way too progressive. As far as I remember he was basically a hippie, advocating for love, helping each other out and the poor, and strongly against hate and capitalism. And he didn’t quite like the old traditions. So I think as a christian as of today you definitely need some counterbalance and some other book to point at to defend your conservatism, egoistcal behaviour and hate towards people who aren’t 100% like yourself.
