    There’s no faith here. No dogma. No system. I see deeply broken people mutilating children and talking to ghosts and I think they need help.

    Are you seriously saying that a child born outside of a cult, is by default also in a cult?

    I use the word cult objectively here. Yahwism is a cult because Yahweh was once a god in a pantheon of gods, a religion. A bunch of cultists branched off this religion and Yahwism was born. Later they splintered into the different sects we have today.

    Atheism can be a cult in the same way not playing football can be a sport. It’s not a group, it’s just being normal.

    I think most English and Americans would be surprised to learn that large parts of Europe view Germans as uncultured and a bit trash. They dress poorly, can’t cook and would sell their mother for some quick cash. Austrians are just Germans except fatter and with a diaper fetish.




  • “Everybody” was Christan at the time in the same way that everyone in the past was heterosexual.

    Since the cult punished people (either violently, or socially) in societies it had conquered, there’s no way of knowing how many people where “believers”, or just went along out of fear.

    My home country was under oppression from the Christian sect for about a thousand years, and guess what? As soon as it was legal and not punished by society, pretty much everyone turned their back on it, to live normal lives. The only people who actually join the cult are either born into broken cultist families, or struggle with addiction to the point where giving up control of their life seem like the only solution.

    Exposing children to religion is abuse and nothing else.
