Do as I say or he will torture you.
For infinity
You must worship him to protect yourself from what he will do to you if you dont.
Roko’s Christilisk
“Come see the totem I wear of my dead god. He’s not really god he’s just the son of god. That we killed. We nailed his body to this stick. Now the stick is our symbol. Wear it around your neck to remember the murder weapon of our god”
Everyone who’s still in the Trivializing Your Beliefs Via Tautology phase should be sent outside and grounded from owning trilbies till they hit 18
Ironically, you got your tautalogy mixed with their tautology.
WELL DONE
lmao, sometimes those people do feel like that.
You spend enough time with New Atheists, and you very quickly discover why the movement tripped over its own dick and died back in the '00s.
Christopher Hitchens secularizing the invasion of Iraq and Afghanistan, Sam Harris secularizing Islamophobia, Richard Dawkins secularizing misogyny. Joel Osteen juice and crackers seem far more attractive than some greasy, hollow-eyed Objectivist preaching nihilism and genocide in the name of corporate profits.
The leaders of the New Atheist movement are not heroes; they are certainly imperfect. I agree with all of your criticisms, but you say nothing of the bulk of their work.
Hitchens’ God is Not Great will stand the test of time; his Islamophobia will not.
Dawkins’ The God Delusion is still correct, despite his late-in-life transphobia and “cultural Christianity”.
At least in the US, younger generations are still increasingly nonreligious
If we take “atheism” to mean the vague “lack of belief in any deities”, then atheism is still on the rise by a significant amount.
It is, however, a hilariously ironic notion that atheism fails where Christianity succeeds: being appropriated by the far-right to spread bigotry and fascism.
I guess there’s a far bigger gap in intelligence between the atheists and the religious than the religious would ever be comfortable acknowledging.
I tend to think that any conclusion that could be reasonably summarized as “I (or a group I belong to) am smart and everyone else is stupid” is not an opinion rooted in objectivity and is therefore very likely to be heavily biased.
there’s a far bigger gap in intelligence
You’d never know it when you listen to YouTube Atheists talk. It’s all the same reactionary clickbait bigotry we’ve come to expect from the Internet.
Well how else will they get the algorithm to promote their videos
