HARDER!

!atheists hahaha

If we have to watch yall b-word about s and blow each other over trump all day every day then you get to watch us smugly decide that you don't exist anymore after you die.

I've seen more coherent downies

Ultimately, religion provides a code and a set of moral values to live by

religoids have no values

on the other hand religion drives people to type paragraphs like this so that's a major negative

>Yeah I'm sure you know a ton about religious doctrine lmao.

Much more than you

>Ultimately, religion provides a code and a set of moral values to live by. Billions of people have used these teachings to improve their lives.

People are genetically programmed to both develop + enforce social norms and adapt to the social norms in their culture. Social norms in cultures that have adopted abrahamic are heavily influenced by Christianity, but if you swapped it for anything or nothing then people would follow whatever rules are in place.

>The Soviets were militantly atheist, as were many other totalitarian states.

This is straight-up historical revisionism. 20th-century totalitarian states quashed religion because they didn't want to compete with another seat of power. Most civilizations in human history have been both authoritarian and religious, and religious mandates have caused the death and enslavement of millions.

>In current society, it is the main contributor to the breakdown of social order.

See point 2. This is some weird blank slate American evangelical viewpoint

The only people more cringe than internet atheists are people who say shit like "religious doctrine".

>In current society, it is the main contributor to the breakdown of social order.

Please elaborate.

>i don't ever run in to religious people on the internet

correction: you don't run into religious people who are sincerely practicing. every corner of the internet is crawling with '''''religious''''''''''' and ''''spiritual''''''''' people who are practicing for political/lifestyle/aesthetic purposes right now.

It's because their job was to say 'gay bad,' and maybe hastle them but not actually stop gay at the source. You can be a non repping homophobe if you actually have a realistic plan to end gayness, and incorporate working on it in small chunks into your life, like richard stallman isn't a secret microsoft fan, and richard the lionheart wasn't a secret muslim. That would require tranhumanist intervention in the sexual and romantic drives though, which is actually what's going to end pedophilia and abusive relationships and let us build a better world in the end. And the people working on that? Probably don't even talk about it that much, just proud of their jobs and brain surgeons and endocrinologists and such, and enjoy the other parts of life as well.

99% of the country was "homophobic" in the 1980s. Were they all secretly gay?

its okay, luckily you are an atheist which means that you are smarter than most.
