What are the benefits of being religious?
in Philosophy ·
I’ve honestly never quite wrapped my head around it... why these so-called "righteous descendants"—if you can even call those closeted religious types that—are constantly trying to force their way into every single natural progression of life...
If everyone is supposedly so "benevolent" and all about spreading "love and light" (and yeah, I’m talking about both the actual leeches in robes and their loyal followers)...well, I’ve always held this view, and I’m sticking to it: philosophy is great for the individual,
...but it’s absolutely terrible for society...just like religion is. You get this massive, hysterical fanaticism the second religious brains start syncing up into one single, mindless thought. It’s just pathetic, really... bah.
