I’ve met enough of these people to know it’s all show and ego. He inserted hinself into an event that didn’t involve him or his religion and suggested something unfeasibly ridiculous that made him look all selfless and pious and got him worldwide recognition and praise from millions of people.
Amazing! You’re so good at knowing what people’s intent is without even knowing- or so much as having ever even having heard of them!
Seriously, have you ever thought of turning that into a career in psychotherapy or criminal investigation? I’d wager that either of these fields would love to have someone with your skills!
Most people aren’t awful, but those that are often have a large impact on the world. The problem is that people are either too busy trying to survive to care, or they assume the world isn’t worth saving because they assume everyone else is awful. So they do nothing but bitch about how bad everyone else is and do nothing to change it.
Fair enough- but in addition to that, I have zero faith in people that make knee-jerk assessments of others they know absolutely nothing about. It makes them seem childish and immature, as well as ignorant and unworthy of being taken seriously.

Ahhh… you’re one of those edgy internet atheists. Carry on then.

You have so much faith in people being good and yet you live in a world like this.
You have so much faith in people being bad, it’s all you can see.
It’s not faith if people are actually mostly awful. The world wouldn’t be like this if they weren’t.
