  • “It serves a need”

    I clearly don’t believe that religion is a “need”

    Now I don’t trust your definition of “need” or of “clearly”. What other words do you define in diametric opposition to their intended meaning?

    People need oxygen, breathing serves that need. People need various organic compounds for energy, eating serves that need. People want to not be afraid of the void, religion serves that want. No one needs religion and it doesn’t “serve” a need, just a desire…🤷‍♂️ I’m sorry me simply restating my point triggers you so badly, just keep in mind that you’re not going to get anywhere screaming that religion serves needs.


  • Nobody said it was.

    Well that’s just not true, but ignoring that…

    I didn’t scream anything, neither did the OP that started this. They stated it calmly and plainly. Obviously religion serves a function in society, but so does slavery. I’m not trying to convince anyone to give up their long-held beliefs, I’m simply defending my interpretation of reality as objectively as I can. Just like coffee, alcohol, and black market sex rings, no one needs religion. The only reason I could think of that you would want to argue against that position is if you believed it wasn’t true. But it is. 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️











  • I know Internet forums can be hard to figure out, they’ve only been around for like 4 or 5 decades. See how your name is “clinicallydepressedpoochie”? My name is not. And it’s also not the name of the person who said that. Different people have different names, this is reflected textually within the forum format so you can just look at the name above the comment your looking at to see who posted that comment. Anything else I need to explain?
