Religion is a Mental Illness

Tribeless. Problematic. Triggering. Faith is a cognitive sickness.

If yours is a religion of love, then the fundamentalists should be the most loving. If yours is a religion of peace, then the fundamentalists should be the most peaceful.

Fundamentalist Christians like Ray Comfort embody the purest essence of Christianity. They live and breathe and understand Christian principles, and the scripture and teachings of the bible, without dilution, without compromise, as they were written and intended. They are the true Christians. Well, aren’t they? Is he not just a more Christianly Christian than you?

If your god wanted its laws and decrees from its special book changed, edited, relaxed or abandoned entirely, would it not have issued an official addendum? Especially since it was exceptionally, explicitly clear about mankind being forbidden from adding to or removing from the scripture themselves, not to mention its commands not being of any private interpretation.

You’re already ignoring so much of the bible. Haven’t people been tweaking it to get it “right” for hundreds of years? And what makes you think it’s going to stop? Christianity is already unrecognisable from its origins.`You celebrate so many pagan holidays, you don’t stone people to death any more (even though the Muslims do), you’ve turned a lot of factual bible facts into “metaphors,” like the nature of the flat Earth resting on pillars, and many of the “one true” versions at least tolerate gay people, even though "god’s word” clearly does not.

If you need to move away from your religion’s fundamentals to be a better person, what does that tell you about the fundamentals of your religion? Why not just discard the few remaining scraps of it entirely? Especially since most of you have never read it anyway.

The “War on Christianity” is being conducted by the Christians. For good reason.

God: World #1 abortion practitioner, performing abortions without the parents’ consent.

as a test, why else would you think? do you think men do not have freewill under God?

If a “god” is all-knowing, as the meme describes, then free-will does not exist. When you have one, by definition. you do not have the other. Either all-knowing or free-will. Choose one.

And any “test” conducted by an all-knowing entity would be pointless, as it would know the outcome, again, by definition, and would therefore not require torturing prospective parents with a difficult decision simply to find out what happens, the way a sociopath tortures animals to find out what happens.

Coupled with punishing humans for failing a test that it knew the outcome of in the first place (and for exercising the free-will you’ve tried to assert it grants in the first place), we can determine that this “god” who conducts tests also cannot be all-loving, since mortal humans have determined torture - intentionally inflicting or causing pain - to be morally repugnant, demonstrating a greater loving than this “god”.

If you can claim knowledge of it being a test, then you can provide access to that knowledge, so that we can assess it. It also means you cannot claim that “we cannot know the will of god” because you’re claiming you do know the will of this “god”. Either you do, or you don’t.

The attributes you’ve given this creature are self-refuting. The “god” you describe cannot exist.
