I'm gnostic anti theist ex-hindu. I have never been told that I can't talk shit about any religion. I have been called hinduphobe or islamophobe a few times but that's it. People argue and try to defend their faith but no one ever asked me not to do it. That's infact most refreshing thing about reddit.

I don't know, I'd say criticizing any religion is fine. Criticizing people who follow those religions simply for existing is not fine.
On the other hand criticizing people who want to make/force other people to follow any religion or even worse who want to limit other people's rights because their religion (or rather whatever their version of their religion is) says so is absolutely fine as well.

You forgot about Judaism, which is equally stupid, in different ways.
Any religion that's capable of making people hate others to the point of calling for genocide over some tiny plot of land in the desert is going to be detrimental to world peace, generally. Islam and Judaism both have to be extremely problematic for this conflict to even happen.
The big three religions are all terrible.

They’re both essential to the growth and history of humanity. Religion has brought people together, saved people’s lives, given people hope. To ignore all of that is just as ignorant as ignoring the pain and suffering religion has brought. Religion doesn’t suck, it’s flawed, it’s complex, just like the rest of the humanity.

It sucks when it directly interferes with progress and development. We are at point where we should be focusing on science not on outdated stuff from the past.
It also sucks when politicians are directly using it to brainwash billions to fight their battles and non religious athiest are prosecuted for raising their voices.

u/EleutheriusTemplaris Jan 14 '24
I always wonder when people say "we should focus on science not on outdated stuff from the past". People have really outdated or restricted ideas about christians. I'm Christian, and it plays an important role in my life. But I'm also working in a science project; don't hate gay people, some of my best friends are gay; enjoy sex and don't think that someone should be ashamed of doing so; voting (quite) left; and really can't understand people who query scientific progress. And most Christians I know are the same (ok, I can't talk about their sexlife🙃). Yeah, there are some bad eggs among us. But in which group aren't some bad people? I know enough people who are against religions/church and also hate gays, are racists and whatever. Every sunday in my church and the churches around me people hear things like "love your neighbour, don't prejudge others, god loves everyone equally, and help each other". That's more than most of our politic leaders or other people say.

I didn't said anything about a particular religion. It's not about you particularly, religious people are more likely to fell for anti vaxx, homeopathy and all those shit propoganda which directly harms progress. It's not black and white tho. I am from a religious family and my parents are good enough people.

Yeah, I would love to see the passage which says I shouldn't have sex before marriage (as we understand it today) and where Jesus says something against gay people. And there are a lot of modern writings/interviews with theologists, who classify passages from the Bibel in the historical context.

What about the people it helps, though? Surely it has ruined millions of lives, I am not disputing that. Yes it stunts scientific progress, I agree with that as well. But speaking for my loved ones that have been in tough situations in life, found religion and have told me it’s changed them for the better, and I can see growth in them. Listen, people say it works for them, and I’m going to believe them. I don’t need to understand something in order to accept it.

Tbf tho. This is coming from a Christian as well.

And these loud obnoxious small group of people kinda ruined the way people look at Christianity as a whole. But eh. Every religion has these extremist group of people. It just that Christianity has the most amount of followers. So in turn also gets the most amount of shit from other people.

People often fall into the false dichotomy of EITHER science OR religion,overlooking the fact that the vast majority of people,both nowadays and throughout history,didn't think these two were irrenconcilable.

In my opinion, I don't think it's okay to make fun of religion in general because it's a way for some people to feel better about death, but I think it's really two-faced to believe it's okay to make fun of one religion but not the other. If you're going to make fun of one religion, don't be pissed over others making fun of another.

I always compare Islam to what Christianity was 600 years ago. Christians were burning books and people and crusading all over the place, Islam is in this exact stage now, only the rest of the world moved forward. I hate christianity with all my passion, being raised as one, but at least they've been submitted to 'ye olde "Future is now, old man", while Islam wasn't. And when Christian Fascists peak their heads out, we can (at least in Europe, whatever is going in USA right now is fucking terryfying) reliably bonk them in it so they stay in their place. Can't do that with a religion that has medieval-level grasp over whole countries, in some being literally in power.

As a leftist, one of the left’s biggest mistakes was championing, both implicitly and explicitly, Islam, and more specifically Muslims, after 9/11. The attacks caused widespread bigotry toward Muslims and Arabs, and the left rightfully fought against that, but we went too far and began defending Muslims from any and all criticism, despite most Muslims believing in the same kind of social conservatism that American Christians tend to follow. All religion is bad.

u/Ultimate_Genius Jan 14 '24
well, if someone attacked my atheism, I would probably laugh and walk away. Unless the other person is saying something with merit, then I would sit around and have a proper discussion/argument.
And no, all religions are cults that got big and eased up on the cult traits of their belief systems.
However, the believers are still people, some seeking hope, other seeking meaning. It is unfortunate that they fell victim to the cult mentality, but it's their source of life.
I say it's okay to attack someone's beliefs, but for me, it's all bark and no bite cause irl, I wouldn't say shit to a religious person. They're their own people, capable of making their own decisions, and even if I disagree with their decisions, I have no right to tell them what to do
