  1. There is a massive difference between opinions and facts. Facts are objective statements that can be proven using evidence, while opinions are subjective expressions of belief or feeling that cannot be conclusively verified.

    We are entitled to our opinions, but nobody gets to choose their own invented facts.

    If science is fact-based while religion is typically just a collection of beliefs and emotions, you can probably guess which side of this balance I favour.

  2. Why is it that some people spend so much of their time fretting over Muslims? At the same time, why is upsetting people of the Jewish faith avoided at all costs by those in charge? For some perspective, only 6% of the UK population identifies as being Muslim, and 0.5% say they are Jewish. I pick on these 2 groups deliberately as I am interested in why they seem to be treated differently, especially since the majority of the UK population says they follow no religion.

    If you need the threat of hell to be a good person, you are just a bad person on a leash.

  5. Not holding my breath that these pieces of shit will be held accountable, waiting for the inevitable pardon from the shitshow joke of a government we're dealing with, but a small victory is a victory nonetheless...

  6. When I criticize #Religion from now on I’m adding an #Athiest hashtag to give people a clue that I don’t want to be proselytized about some other religion they think is better. This is doubly true as #Queer person. A good majority of us left religion and have no intention of going back and it doesn’t matter how inclusive you say your religion is. Good for that religion for being inclusive but that still is a hard no for me.

  7. Watching #handsmaidtail for the first time and man this is hard to watch and just reinforces my beliefs that religion is the enemy of humanity no matter it's form.

    What does a religion need for you to accept it as your own? Should it go into depth of metaphysical concepts or simply give moral principles/laws that prove understandable/helpful to the everyman? What do you need to truly believe? What is most important in a potential faith to you?

    If you view religion as necessary for ethics, you've reduced us to the ethical level of four-year-olds. "If you follow these commandments you'll go to heaven, if you don't you'll burn in hell" is just a spectacular version of the carrots and sticks with which you raise your children. -Susan Neiman, philosopher and author (b. 27 Mar 1955)

  10. If you block everyone that disagrees with you: you form a bubble.

    Block toxic people.

    There is need for argument, to strengthen your positions, to persuade others, to be persuaded from bad positions.

    Sometimes when people disagree it can feel like it’s a personal attack… lots of ideology attaches itself to your identity. Religion and politics want to “get them while they’re young”. The longer ideology is in you the harder it is to extract.

    I'm an atheist, but if there was a church I'd go to, it'd be this one. I know several people who go there, and the pastor is well known for his civic mindedness.
