    children being abused with brainwashing is absolutely your business even if you dont understand it.

    just because you managed to escape it doesnt mean the average child is able to. look around, they clearly are not.

      Being raised religiously is definitely not generally abuse, and I would say only a very small portion of it goes into abusive territory. Which, of course, yes should be everyones business.

      just because you managed to escape it doesnt mean the average child is able to. look around, they clearly are not.

      I did not escape anything, I am still an atheist. What I am saying is that it’s not inherently better to “escape” religion than to keep believing. I would even oppose that framing of religion being something you need to escape.

          1. Strong community bonding, most people are social animals that like being associated with a group
          2. Giving sense to charitable actions that they would otherwise not perform
          3. A general sense of security and comfort

          As I said I myself am not religious. It doesn’t work for me. But to just flat out deny that religion has benefits to people is blatantly dismissive of the things that make a lot of people happy.

          If we are going to get down to namecalling here you go: You libs can really go to absurd places just to prove that pure logic and rationality will make us prosper.
