A lot of the posts here are just pointing out how illogical religion is, which I don’t mind. I’m religious myself, but I’m well aware how ridiculous it is. What does bother me is the arguments against Christianity that are used as arguments against all religions. Most of you were likely raised christian, so I understand why you focus on it, but most religions don’t have all of the problems Christianity does. I think a lot of the posts here would fit better in an ex-christian community.
Christianity doesn’t claim the threat is love. And proselytizing isn’t inherently bad. I feel like you’ve misrepresented Christianity and also left out what religion you follow on purpose. My guess is that it’s a religion you’ve formed yourself rather than a mainstream one as most mainstream religions require sharing the faith.
I’m exagerrating because I’m not fond of Christianity. My point here isn’t to make an argument against Christianity though, it’s to say why its important to specify which religion you are talking about. I left out my religion because its not really relevant but if you must know, I’m a noahide. Its not massively popular but its been around longer than Christianity and I most certainly did not form it myself.
This sub isn’t anti-religion. It’s atheism. It’s likely the same critiques apply to you. It’s not important to specify which flavor of deism. It’s still deism.
It is important if you are focusing on things that aren’t attributes of all forms of deism. If you are doing this, it shouldn’t be treated like an attribute of deism itself. There is a difference and it is important.
