Why is Lemmy like this? I really thought we left the edgelord r/atheism shit back in reddit.
What, you came to Lemmy expecting church services?
No I was just hoping “Bible Bad, upvotes to the Left” was something we could outgrow BEFORE we graduate high school.
It’s not a matter of respecting beliefs but of looking like an adult.
Some of us adults are tired of other adults having imaginary friends and expecting to be treated like adults
So just because someone has a religion you don’t think they deserve to be treated like a human being? You have revealed your bigotry.
Considering the political and social leanings of the typical Lemmy user, I think you’re going to be repeatedly disappointed looking for people who think the Bible is a good thing. In any modern and halfway decent society, yes, Bible is bad. Recognizing that something is shit isn’t an ability restricted to children.
I’m not asking people to think the Bible is a good thing, I’m asking people not to talk like they’re snorting cheeto dust while they watch Rick & Morty.
Ah, so we can think the Bible is bad, we just can’t say anything about it because that would be edgy. Gotcha.
Don’t put words in my mouth. You’re an adult you know how to behave without making a fool of yourself.
That advice definitely goes two ways.
All I’m asking is people stop acting so smug and quit villifying out-groups.
I don’t know what you’re complaining about the only people that ever read the Bible are atheists. It’s kind of hard not to be by the end of it. The religious type cherry pick their Bible verses and ignore the bits they don’t like.
How is atheism related to being an edgelord? I’m not sure I understand the connection at all.
Atheism is fine. It’s when you insist that every instance and utterance of religion is evil and can’t help but to bash Christianity every chance you get.
I’m literally not even a Christian, I’m not offended. I just am so tired of these tropes, they were lame on reddit and they’re lame here
This is an article about a man who spends his professional life, and position of power within the education system, to force his religion onto the public. This is where you should expect criticisms of his religion.
Criticizing the scriptures of people who are imposing their beliefs on others is being an edge lord?
