I'm just here to remind everyone that DISORGANIZED religion is an option! Not that we want you to join us! Fuck that shit! Consult your pineal gland if you're so god damned determined! Mine is fucking busy!

Non-Religion is cool if you get used to it. 91% of all Germans are "Not practising any religion". On paper some 70% still are members of religious communities but otherwise we don't give a fuck and instead going to church we meet for beer and bretzel breakfast on sunday. We stopped being religious after two World Wars as God was never on our side. Now we ain't on his side either. Never been more happy.

Funny thing, officially Religion is part of school. But from what I remember it was more a history lesson. I remember every jewish and muslim holiday but not a single Christian Martyrer. Yes, around half of religious lessons at school was about other religions. Most likely because of selective memory - on holidays I could have beer and bretzel breakfast. Martyrers don't feed me.

My disconnect is when they consider Trump a saint, but then say Obama is a bad guy

I'm happy to be a part of that demographic. My upbringing only contributed to my irreligiosity.

I probably wouldn't have lost my faith if I was t constantly called a commie socialist for espousing 'christian' values and wanting to help the less fortunate by the very people who instilled those very values into my moral code.

Anymore I'm just a non-denominational pagan because at least pagans aren't such raging goddamned hypocrites.

I hope that as more of the world gets access to the Internet and information that more and more people will leave religions. When I was able to freely read the history of different religions and critical analysis by atheists it made my mind up fairly quickly.

We are all born atheists. Religion is the oddity.

In a thousand years, I wonder if humanity will be at war with itself because they can't agree if Luke Skywalker or Harry Potter is the true prophet in their version of creation mythology.

the reason i am nonreligious is because i realized it is human made concept, it has nothing to do with my likes or dislikes of the organizations

I just sorta invented my own idea of what makes sense spiritually and only bothered to share it in a setting where shit was already deep and spiritual/philosophical.

I kinda like just inventing random mythology too every so often, my favorite recent one is that whenever someone says "I love you" for the first time, a Unicorn is born, and because of that a huge chunk of unicorns are in fact born as one of a set of twins, because the first time one person says that is often followed up by the first time the person they're saying it to says it back to them.

Don't believe in any of it as a "this is how the world really works!" kinda thing, I just like telling stories that I feel like would fit in a kid's book.

Nerevar, there you are. I have just started reading this Lemmy Post about Religion. What an intoxicating and grand waste of my time. Nerevar the only People that are happy without Religion are the Argonians, and you know as well as I, Dagot Ur(the god) how miserable these creatures are.
Not a single Dunmer in all of Morrowind would try to claim that they do not believe in god.
Yes Nerevar, i would kill them but that isn't the point.
