Are anonymous 4chan atheists like this in your country?>my personal suffering is so profound it proves that the entire universe is fundamentally evil and meaningless>no I will not be healed by divine love instead I will to stay in misery and maximize human despair>I dedicate my life to spreading the anti-gospel of nothingness
>>219041675I think religious people are usually happier, buthow could you even become religious if you have never had a spiritual experience and grew up in a mostly atheist family?It just doesn't seem like something you can force.(unless you are an easily influenceable retard)
>>219041844Faith isn’t a magic cure for all your problems. Life is a struggle for everyone, even the most faithful cradle Christians. The difference is that in faith life is a struggle tending in the direction of spirit in hope, not a meaningless struggle directed at best towards temporary self-satisfaction. We’re not asking you to immediately have the strength of faith that Abraham did, only to be opened to healing.
>>219042670why your faith and not literally any other tho>inb4 mine is real and those others are fake :^)
>>219042780The world’s faith traditions are all substantially different from each other. Your spiritual home isn’t chosen arbitrarily. Buddhists believe in resignation in the face of life’s difficulties, withdrawal into a universal state of consciousness. Jews believe in national salvation through works, in the establishment of an earthly kingdom by a coming king and legislator. Muslims believe in bloody universal conquest and global conformity to a new revealed law, in authority. Christians believe in the reception of the divine gift of life in marriage union with Christ, on whose body and blood given for us we mystically feast in the sacrament, on self-acceptance in knowledge of God’s forgiveness given for Christ’s sake, on spiritual brotherhood in that forgiveness, on understanding of the fact that with God all things are possible, that no matter how bad things are or how old you get happiness in this life and the next is possible with God, at every moment.
>>219041675Weirdest thing about online "atheists" is how they claim only to hate religion because it abuses people o algo but they will still seethe at deism and make all kinds of excuses for every non-Christian religion.
I'm atheist, AMA.
