    Faith and religion

    I've always seen faith and religion as two separate things. Faith is personal conviction, religion is someone else's convictions that are forced upon you.

    If you haven't seen the (Dutch) film Simon, you should. Other than being a really, really good film, it also has the main character give us this wisdom:

    Every form of organized religion is wrong.


    I agree. Faith is fine, religion is (mostly) not. Let everybody think for themselves: a "moral compass" should be in your head, not in random ancient texts.

    But if the gist of your holy scripture is to be nice to each other, to help those in need and to see all human beings as equal, several serious questions and doubts should pop up in your mind if an openly racist misogynist with a long list of convictions for crimes that also go against the Ten Commandments, says he is a true christian. Is he? And if so, are you?

    What would Jesus do?

    Again, I'm an atheist, but I have absolutely no problem with telling people that face a moral question, to ask themselves "what would Jesus do?"

    For me, Jesus wasn't an immortal deity who could walk on water, but simply someone who pointed out the same societal problems we see today: inequality, poverty, greed, abuse of power, hypocrisy... He wasn't the first or the last to do that either.

    Creeds on greed

    Jesus was crystal clear about greed; this article, "What did Jesus say about greed?", explains it exactly like I see it.

    That's pretty much the same as what Buddha teaches us, only the goal to reach is not a god or heaven, but enlightenment.

    I like to see myself as a socialist, a concept that is based on the same ideas as those preached by Jesus and Buddha: help each other, and share. Capitalism is the opposite of that: grab what you can.

    A true Christian can never also be a capitalist, at least not without an unhealthy dose of hypocrisy.

    Although I've been a lifelong atheist, I was born and raised in a christian environment, and was taught much more about the Bible than I care for.

    Maybe it's because I look at christianity from a distance, that I have a clearer picture of it than the "official", churchgoing believers. It seems that I, as a staunch non-believer, live my life much more according to biblical standards than they do.

    For all their claims of being christians, the MAGA-cult doesn't seem to know the Bible very well. Their cult leader goes against most of the values in it, including at least half of the Ten Commandments. Adultery, stealing, lying and coveting for example...

    And then there's Luke 12... Orange doesn't know that bit (I bet he's never ever read a single page of the Bible), and neither do his sheep. Or they have come up with their own exegesis to make it ok.

    Then Jesus said to them, “Watch out! Be on your guard against all kinds of greed; life does not consist in an abundance of possessions.”
    -- Luke 12:15

    It's part of Parable of the Rich Fool, such an appropriate title...

    And let's not even touch the parable of the Good Samaritan, I'm sure they're bending over backwards to twist that into a story about how minorities are robbers and thieves 🙄
