Respect.

I went to this when I was a kid. I came back with a God-high, just like how I assume the girl in this video feels. I was in the midst of a couple year long questioning period of religion, and coming back from this put that on hold for a month or so.

Then it wore off and I kept asking the important questions.

Questions like, “why are there so many different faiths, religions, and creeds? God certainly didn’t create all those different religions.”

“What if I was born in the middle east? Would I be muslim instead of Catholic? I probably would barely know about Catholicism. I’d probably feel the same about Catholicism as I feel about Islam: Its other people’s faith, and not the Truth.”

“I believe all those other religions are not the True Faith. But, if I claim 99% of the thousands upon thousands of religions that have existed are a false human creation, what are the chances mine is a false human creation, too?”

“If 99% of human religion is man-made, Catholicism probably man-made, too.”

“Oh shit.”

Man created God in his own image. Religion is a byproduct of culture.

I’ve been blocking every NSFW community I see one by one, but I too think it would be nice just to opt out of seeing NSFW communities

I’m using the mobile site “installed” to my home screen.

I’ll definitely check it out! Unfortunately the only Russian literature I’ve read is The Brothers Karamazov (amazing) so it’d be good to explore more

Very cool, I will definitely check these out!

Also I’m new to Lemmy – why does it say there’s three comments on this post, but I only see yours?
