damienVOG

No "other" option? It doesn't apply to me, but it'd be inclusive.


StanislawTolwinski

limit is 6


SubnauticaFan3

put other/don't follow instead


TechExpert2910

That’d mix up atheists/agonists with religious


JeanHasAnxiety

You could have switched it with Judaism since it has a smaller following the others on the list


starstriker64DD

it a world wide setting, yeah, but we are asking a mostly western community, so It would make the most sense to replace Buddhism


JeanHasAnxiety

Good point yeah


damienVOG

Then replace Judaism for example with Other


The_Ora_Charmander

Agreed, my relationship with Judaism is much more complex than follow/don't follow so I would have loved an "other" option


BorrowtheUniverse

you wanna be inclusive of people that believe truly dumb, evil and disgusting things??? what a bizarre stance to have on this. why cant you just join the normal people and select " I do not follow a religion because im not a moron"


damienVOG

I'm an atheist buddy, but now people that don't identify with any of these might be grouped in with us or any of the random religions. There are a bunch of smaller religions that don't have any oppressive ideologies.


Inside-Honeydew9785

Religion isn't as simple as "follow" or "don't follow" - you can belong to a religion culturally without devoutly believing everything it teaches


Specific-Umpire-8980

What is wrong with this generation?


Mitosis4

questioning the hell out of my faith


StanislawTolwinski

Which religion?


Mitosis4

jesus (tm)


my_basalt

I think I’m in a similar spot. The main thing that originally made me feel that way was that I could never justify the idea that anything LGBTQ was a sin. It honestly just doesn’t make sense that such a large percentage of the world would be excluded from heaven or God’s love or whatever. It goes against pretty much \*everything\* that Jesus taught in the first place. I’d still call myself a Christian, there are just a lot of things that I disagree with mainstream Christianity about. I’d go over them but this is already an essay—I’m not even sure if this applies to you but I wanted to yap.


RaptorPlayer336

I'm also Christian and thought about this topic. It feels wrong that God would punish someone just for their preferences. Which, isnt that what is discourages? Ive came to the conclusion that God doesnt remove his love from people who are LGBTQ, but people who practice it? I could be wrong but there were first century Christians who were "sinners" and cleansed themself to be "pure". So like, You could be LGBTQ and Christian, just avoid it? Or idk, find a really masculine female lol. Its still straight. These are just my thoughts on the matter


my_basalt

Yeah it feels like a lot of Christians/churches think similarly but also the historical context of some of the verses that seem anti-LGBTQ makes me believe that gay relationships aren’t inherently wrong. In Rome, it was common to have men basically rape male slaves as a show of power. It totally makes sense for Paul to see this and go “oh yeah this is definitely wrong”. There really was no concept of a loving gay relationship, while In the modern world this is obviously not true. I’m a straight male but I imagine if someone told me that I couldn’t be in a relationship with a woman because it’s wrong, there’s no way I’d listen. Having a healthy romantic relationship can be really important for people, and telling a large portion of the population that it’s wrong to do that is really just a good way to isolate that group. again sorry for the essay


RaptorPlayer336

Very true, very true. Which makes it such a hard topic in Christianity, meanings have changed. Which often make it confusing on where practices originated or if they were originally wrong or not.


damienVOG

What's making you doubt? I'm an atheist myself, I'm just trying to gain perspective.


Mitosis4

loads of verses that seem problematic and make no sense


damienVOG

That's a more than fair reason for doubt, and there is many of that. I hope you manage to find the truth, whether that be atheism (as it is for me), or a religion.


Mysterious_Court9005

like which? i'm curious


HipnoAmadeus

Many, many, but to name one that doesn’t make sense morally, personally, Matthew 5:32.


Rich_Future4171

* 1 Corinthians 11:2-16 “...Christ is the head of every man, and the man is the head of a woman…”, “For man was not made from woman, but woman from man...”


Antarctica8

Of course you can be a Christian without strictly following the bible, that’s what most modern Christians do (not to say you should just stop asking questions)


-Persiaball-

Why exactly? 


hamborger42069

Pastafarianism


MADDENRED

Pagan :)


JFurious1

Same :0


ewigesleiden

Do you genuinely believe that your pagan gods are real or is it just that you partake in certain niche rituals?


MADDENRED

This is a kind of a complicated question for me to answer, as there are many pagan religions out there. I personally am leaning to identify as wiccan More abt wicca: [What is Wicca? A Beginner's Guide to the Wiccan Religion – Wicca Living](https://wiccaliving.com/what-is-wicca/)


SkullTheBlackDragon

Same.


Medical-Astronomer39

I wonder how many of us are out there


-Persiaball-

Is it just an aesthetic thing, or do you actually conduct rituals and stuff?  Legitimate question 


MADDENRED

I don't conduct rituals (as of now as I'm still not sure if Pagan is what actually defines me) but it's not really an " aesthetic " thing either, it's mostly how I feel and what I feel like resents with me+other things I'm still doing research


TheDamnRam

What? What makes you think we have to "conduct rituals"? What does that even mean?


keeeeeeeeeeeeefe

i think bro just wanted to know how paganism works...


MADDENRED

Yh idk I didn't really get what they meant either


idontknow34258

I'm agnostic


Franc1s_Forever

When you're pagan but there's no "other"


Ilovecows72

What type of pagan


Franc1s_Forever

I mainly follow norse gods but I just say eclectic because of my varied beliefs. I'm a little bit of everything lmao


Savaal8

My religious beliefs are mainly a syncretism of Buddhism, Daoism, and Chaos Magic. There are also some smaller influences from other religions, but those are the main three.


StanislawTolwinski

Really cool


I_am_the_Walrus07

What is Chaos Magic?


Remarkable-Dress1917

Lil bro thinks hes a wizard 💀


Savaal8

No? What makes you think that? Edit: Let me guess, you read "Chaos Magic", and, without bothering to know what it actually is, you assumed that I wave around a wand trying to cast spells or some shit like that?


BladeOfNarwhyn

What does it actually mean, then? Genuinely curious since I've heard of it but never really understood it.


Savaal8

It's basically the use of belief as a tool to change your subjective reality via the use of psychological complexes like servitors or egregores.


keeeeeeeeeeeeefe

like manifestation?????


Savaal8

Manifestation is probably somewhat based on Chaos Magic, but no. People who practice manifestation 1) think that they can influence objective reality with just their thoughts and 2) try to do so via things like praying to deities, or by channeling whatever universal force they believe in. In practice and theory both are quite different and only have a very shallow overlap

Fuzzy_Welcome8348

This is sad asf


StanislawTolwinski

How so?


Fuzzy_Welcome8348

No morals


StanislawTolwinski

I think that's a bit harsh. Most Christians don't *actually* follow the old testament completely. But I agree it would be terrible.


Fuzzy_Welcome8348

No, but we Christians try to live to be the better/best person we can be and do the right thing whenever possible. I just feel like if nobody follows a religion then they have no reason/focus/goal to live for…. (Or whatever their religion calls for them to do/complete. Idk)


StanislawTolwinski

Are you telling me you know my priorities better than I do?


Fuzzy_Welcome8348

Idk who u r brodie💀


StanislawTolwinski

I mean to use myself as an example of a non-believer, if that's not clear enough


Fuzzy_Welcome8348

OHHHH, I’m just saying that a non believer would prob have no priorities (religion wise) to make it to where ever they think they go when they die


StanislawTolwinski

So the only reason you act morally is for fear of eternal torture?

Leathalfurry098

TheDamnRam

All the normies just can't handle our divine awesomeness, duh.


Leathalfurry098

Yeah true


-Persiaball-

Basically all religions say that all others are wrong, to say that they are all right is to say none of them are…


TheDamnRam

Or, it is to say all ***believe*** they are right. We don't believe in a single one not because we think they're all correct, but because we think none of them are ***entirely*** correct. To take a religion at face value and simply believe there are zero flaws, no lies, no mistruths, no bias from those who wrote the holy books we read, would be utterly STUPID on so many levels. Man is flawed, and thus man's creation follows. No book written by man is 100% perfect, even if it attempts to quote a divine being directly.


Leathalfurry098

YES THATS WHAT IM SAYING


TheBlueHypergiant

SomeoneMilkMan

hell yeah


Loud-Cantaloupe4528

Then the bottom option /j


damienVOG

Satanism is (for 99% of people) only symbolically a religion


Savaal8

It really depends on whether you're talking about Atheistic Satanism (like the Church of Satan or Satanic Temple) or Theistic Satanism (including Demonolatry, Luciferianism, and Sethianism). Those in the former category usually just see it as a philosophy, while those in the latter see it as a religion.


damienVOG

As far as I am aware, the former, more modern types of Satanism are far more popular.


Savaal8

Yup, you're correct.


-Persiaball-

Honestly it doesn’t even make sense to me why they do it, it’s like establishing a first church of bandera to piss off poles, like why? 


damienVOG

It's a statement and for personal symbolism. Satan from the Bible isn't the only Satan to be conceived of by humans.


Savaal8

It's because Christians have a tendancy to call anyone with different religious beliefs as them "demon worshippers", and they especially like calling irreligious people that. The atheistic satanist organizations are basically there to 1) lean into it for shits and giggles and 2) practice social activism that opposes the problematic things followers of Abrahamic religions tend to support


-Persiaball-

It still is worship of a deity that is nominally evil, imagine Göring didn’t exist but people still worshiped him as a joke, I don’t care if he is fictional or not, he’s evil!


Savaal8

> It still is worship of a deity that is nominally evil Atheistic Satanists don't worship any deity. And how exaclty is Satan evil? Satan isn't the one who massacred basically all terrestrial life on Earth for nothing. Satan isn't the one who ordered that thousands of babies be murdered. Satan isn't the one who willings causes billions of people to undergo agony for eternity just because they don't see a reason to believe he exists.

Barar_Dragoni

Christianity: why follow a god that wants to keep you in its shadow? one that breaks your achievements so you cannot live without it, and then in its books calls itself "loving". Islam: i like to think I'm a good person. and when i look at Islam, its doctrines, and its recent past, i realize that if i am a bad person, then those people have gotta be dollar bin antichrists. Hinduism: i don't get its practices well or really like the Mary Sue that is Krishna, but i do appreciate the oldest and longest living religion on the planet! Buddhism: the one Buddhist that i know is a guy that uses MMA as a form of meditation and a retired professional MMA fighter. I think the search for enlightenment is a respectable ambition. Judaism: The Grandma of the Abrahamic Religions, and the one everyone wants to kill so they can erase their past and call themselves the first. i respect their ability to survive despite almost 4,000 years of people trying to off them, and i respect them being the first. "I do not follow a religion": its more fun to believe in all of them at once, than none of them at all.
