adults know it's fake and gay and serves no purpose other than making sure the goyim stay in line
>>523871108Ever since I was a kid I couldn't figure out how any rational person could believe it.As an adult I finally figured out that most people aren't rational
Religion is an important part of culture and atheists don't reproduce
>>523871108So why has hardly anyone stayed in line then? I respect Trump for saying he didn’t know if he’ll get to Heaven. I hope if I ever make it to Heaven no one wonders how I got in
>>523871291Are you implying Islam is better than Christianity
>>523871108I've always viewed it like Nutrisystems. You know, the weight loss product which is basically just pre-portioned meals for idiots too stupid and lacking in all self control or cooking ability to make healthy meals and then eat the correct amount of it.Basically, I don't need nutrisystems. I'm not a retarded fat person. I already agree that the conclusions of nutrisystem (that you should eat healthy meals which are low in calories) are correct, but I don't feel the need to buy them and eat them in order to not be fat because I can actually self regulate. The fat people who get thin on nutrisystems tell me "the way to salvation is nutrisystems! Get on nutrisystems dude!" and I'm like hey look at me, I don't really need nutrisystems to keep myself from being a fat disgrace. I'm glad that they got on nutrisystems, I'm glad it helped them. I think that overall nutrisystems is a force for good and growing up has meant that I realized that it's pointless to imagine a world where out of control fat masses of people don't need nutrisystem. As a result, I've become a major proponent of nutrisystems because people are getting fatter and fatter and somebody has to put a stop to all of this. They won't simply listen to me when I tell them to not eat like slobs, but for some reason nutrisystem gives them the structure they need.Anyway, that's how I see it. Also, you have to acknowledge that religion provides a philosophically objective basis for morality and ethics. When you make an "ought" claim - something ought to be some way. People shouldn't be faggots, people should try not to murder each other, you're stating an ethical position. Adherents of a religion are supposed to follow the moral guidance of the religion whether they agree with it or not, and they are not the arbiters of what's good or bad - god is. For anyone who is agnostic or atheistic, there is no objective morality and what's right or wrong always boils down to what you the individual prefer.
>>523872047The problem with preference based morality is that you say "faggotry is degenerate" and someone else says "faggotry is great and should be promoted!" which one is correct or holds the moral high ground. You could argue any number of points about faggotry is a reproductive dead end and causes all kinds of problems. But if someone doesn't prefer to reproduce or exist then your preference to do so doesn't trump theirs and you're at an impasse. Societally this just means that we default to force. Might makes - he who has enough other people with shared preferences in their favor will simply threaten those who disagree with force until they back down or are slaughtered. Some people are comfortable with this, but many have not thought this through. You have no moral high ground from which to say for example that the kikes are bad or evil or doing anything wrong, just that they do things you don't prefer them to do. At that point it's like - who cares though? Just something you have to live with sans religious foundations for good/bad/right/wrong. The other problem is that the values of a religion are theoretically unchanging, and in practice don't change all that might in terms of morality and how things are viewed. The preferences of the masses are changing all the time. It's not a stable foundation upon which to build a society, especially when you consider that 98% of people are so retarded they shouldn't even be free to make choices for themselves.
>>523871108>>523871285Fedora faggot circle jerk midwit faggorty you grow to realize gods real by becoming a man asking real questions but you faggots aren’t men your women who run away from the truth for fear of being called a name by other midwit faggots and women it really is sad too many weak willed weak minded sissy bois these days
I believe that there is a god but that he hates his creations and wants us all to suffer and die. You do what you can to stay alive only to spite him.
>>523872544>bell curve copebasically none of the smartest people on earth believe in god, you have to go several centuries back to find religious geniuses and even then it's plausible they were just pretending after seeing what happened to people who defied the church
>>523871108>i dont believe in thingthat's really cool man but this belongs on /x/ or /lit/
FAITH is cringe. Religion (organized institution which exists for a community to periodically get together and celebrate their heritage with festivals and rituals) is based. I’m an atheist but I have more respect for the Christians who actually go to church and interact with their neighbors than the faggots who just sit at home reading the Torah or Aquinas philosophy or whatever.
>>523872544Meanwhile, the chart in reality.Also that quote by Heisenberg is FAKE
>>523871108Duh and no shit. It's just Santa Claus but slightly different. An old man who sees everything you do, judges you for it, and will reward you or punish you depending on your behavior. The only difference is one does it every Christmas, the other only after you die. It's the most obvious bullshit ever. Which may have been good intentioned at the start. To help people cope with mortality. But it clearly got misused and turned into just another fucked up control system.
>>523871108This is what christians believe
>>523873141>non of the people i can think of believe in god. Which ones you ask? You know, all those scientists that endlessly campaign publicly how much they don't believe in god.There's 0 correlation between Iq and religiosity. no matter how many cooked ass "studies" you fedorafags pay to produce.
Jesus Christ is the only way
>>523873141In his painting of the creation of Adam, Michelangelo put God in a cloud that looks suspiciously like a human brain. Possibly saying that God originated from human thought. Yet you could also say that God gave intellect to humanity. Either interpretation is valid. A nice way to cover his bases. A man of his time was not going to come out and say that Catholicism was bullshit. The only other religious genius that they often point to is Newton. Newton died a virgin. If the goal of life is reproduction, he failed there. He also spent his life searching for the philosophers stone. So a bit of a mixed bag there.
>>523872544>look at my le epic maymay checkmate gaytheist
>>523873496To be honest US (if that chart is from USA that is) isn't really a good sample to draw data from, US biblethumpers are extra retarded. You'd need to take somewhat secular country that doesn't have magic underpants cults as the norm. Not to mention some of the largest religious groups are literally inbred.
Most adults are retarded, so religion is necessary to drag the retards up to where the rest of us are.Especially the women, man. Dear God do you need religion for women
>THE SUNYou're almost there...
>>523873141>>523873496Fedora fags coping with the reality that actual intelligent people know god exists because they are actually scientists and not women the evidence for god is overwhelming everything that goes against god is pure speculation and or hubris anyone who is interested in reality finds god people who just want to be petted on the head and called a good goy deny reality for midwit social approval then when confronted with facts do what feminine minded always do gaslight and lie to themselves so they don’t have to be confronted with reality
>>523873815Literally what fags like yourself delude yourselves into kek
>>523874413It’s true though dysgenic fags are the ones who deny god
>>523871108Magic invisible animals in the sky was kino. We ruined it by adding people
>>523871108No one cares what pathetic cuck atheists think.Now go away, I'm busy fucking you wife and mother at the same time.
>>523871291Everyone is atheist. It's a position on a claim. You reject all claims beside your own particular cult, making you 99.999% atheist. Some of us go one further and are 100%.>>523873045gods are logically impossible and are an infantile belief. a god cannot exist because you're using it as a concept to explain creation, and then immediately stopping and forgetting to explain who created the universe god lives in. Yes, you actually need to have that explanation in order to make your god claim. No, you can't just say "Well he would have to be infinite" because you have no example of that. Just your imagination.
>>523871108>but you faggots aren’t men your women who run away from the truthYou mean like you're doing now
