Non-organized religious people. Give your strongest philosophical or metaphysical arguments for your religion, eg, deism, pantheism, panentheism, stoicism, animism, etc.

I want to learn your point-of-view.

Most people who practice religion are functional polytheists/animists. The use of amulets, veneration of monk/saints, the use of images in worship, the conceptualization of gods as human persons, sacred places, demons/angels/spirits actively intervening in life etc.... The type of hyper-philosophic religion you find in religious theologies is divorced from how the mass person conceptualizes and practices religions. The people who believe in the "right" theology are monks and autists. People who are divorced from reality and are functional atheists.

Interesting and insightful anon. Thanks for responding.
I do study religions a tiny-little bit myself, though i still am religious (muslim).
>>
It's making you laugh.
>>
>>18603411
Not at all. Don't be self-conscious. It is indeed insightful.

>>18603434
No, I want my "faith" to be a comedic one. I want you to laugh and be jolly, OP. This is the purpose of it. A Satyr play on the tragedy of the death of god and, maybe, gold at the horizon. A rebirth? Not of The God, of course. But of what?

I am always jolly, but on that note, i wish I was witty enough to respond in kind to you.
Teach me more about greek metaphysics. what is it that moves you?
>>
>>18603290
Have you read your holy book? I read it and kinda found it to be a temu version of the Bible, with the same stories but condensed and with some details left out and replaced with more rules.

I want to feel like a real woman

I've read the quran, yes. I made a thread about it here some time ago as well.
But that's diverting from the current topic. we must elevate ourselves beyond our passions dictating our actions, causing social discohesion.

If you have knowledge about the current thread's topic, then please contribute.
>>
>>18603843
I'm just here to remind you (muslim) that you can not and will not normalise islam on 4chan of all places. If you don't want the thread to be derailed, don't share your religion.
>>
>>18603876
I don't hide my convictions or roll over for anybody. If that offends you, you'll either live with it, or sperg out here.
Either-way, you're utterly inconsequential to me.

And from your perspective, what would it feel like to be a real woman?

Imagine trying to start shot with a random guy for no real reason outside of being a maladjusted loser with a sad desire to soapbox on fucking 4chan.
