Religion is a tool to get homo sapiens that lack cognition skills to do simple jobs like farming while those with higher cognitive function worry about abstract systems like the monetary construct and subversion.

Whoever created religion as we know it a few thousand years ago knew this. Money was becoming the thing that made or killed you.

I'm a Darwinistic extentialist. The only purpose of life is to reproduce, both genetically and socially. Someone who does not pass on their traits, is worthless. I value my family before any person, I value my countrymen before any other countrymen, and I value my race before any other race.

Also what's that new meme about?

Can someone explain the context of this to me?
I don't come to Cred Forums often so I don't know if this is some shit everyone knows, but it's interesting. Was it suicide?

These two people are dead

Last week Ohio police posted a picture of a young family that OD'ed on heroin with a young child in the back of the car.

Religion is the ultimate blue pill. Believing lies about magical beings and supporting some shitty hierarchical shit like a mosque or church. On the day of the rope religion will feel the pain I swear it.

I pay homage to Vivec of the tribunal temple, since Almalexia and Sotha Sil are both dead. If I don't then I'm basically stuck worshipping the gods of Chaos, but sometimes I don't.

I unironically literally worship Kek, the embodiment of meme magic.

Thanks. What actual fucking retards.

The only lies are the ones distancing you from beauty, truth, God.

>On the day of the rope religion will feel the pain I swear it.
Without authority (violence) backed moral enforcement (ie. Dogma/Religion), this won't happen. Uprooted nihilists can cause chaos, sure, but they can't remove religion. Why would they?

You do realize that religion is constantly growing and that you're on the wrong side of history due to this?
You agnostics are getting stomped out from left to right by anti-hate speech laws protecting religious groups in the west.
We're coming for you and your feeble little mind that came from nothing and will return to nothing.
Not looking forward to our future, are ya?
Oh, don't worry.
We'll make sure that your grand children has a chance to pick between converting or getting the guillotine.
We do after all practice forgiveness.
That's right, beg.
Beg for forgiveness.
Say it like you really mean it.
That's all it takes.
God bless you.

sounds like you're just a faggot

Undecided

I think humans are unique in some way, I find it hard to believe life has originated on its own, but don't rule it out, I don't believe in any single god, but do believe in the possibility of some creator or some creative force, I don't know. I'm open to the idea of God, but I'd prefer it without all the extra baggage the Bible has with it.

People may have used it as a tool, but religion and spirituality have been a part of human psyche for far longer than a few thousand years. It's bigger than you're making it out to be.

Beware of Gods program.
Do you know in shadows that you have a deceiving god and he will give you all in the end?
Maybe you should listen to the Beware of Gods program. To save mankind from itself.
Lest a God cheat you and your future. This is a program without free will that you operate, it will enter AI mode if you kill yourselves.

If the source of truth is your brain, if the source of beauty is you - you will claim to be god.

If so, what brings death to you?

Any and all arguments are lost on you faggots

Each and every time I argue with an atheist it's always the same thing, you never take the evidence presented to you, or you strawman endlessly and call names.

Youre already inclined to believe as you do. If Christ's resurrection isn't enough, then nothing is enough.

One does not have to be a nihilist to oppose religion. That is what the religious forget. They often think people without religion have nothing. We have everything. The world is all we have.

I could say the same thing about you fucks. In fact I've seen countless more people on this board waiving off actual arguments with lehatjoke than atheists calling Christians retards. It seems like it's just the way for you people, but it should be expected when one of your biggest tenets is "have faith and it will come to you eventually"

>Christ's resurrection isn't enough
How the fuck does some dude/diety resing make you believe in him? who else frequents comebacks from graves, let's see, zombies, undead, vampires, ghouls and liches come to mind. You are still a fucking retard, disregarding the existance of your god.

essentially christianity without the new testament

which should amount to judaism minus a few teachings of their own I dont know about

Should not you be killing fags or something?

>christianity without the new testament

Old School Star Wars Lore is my Religion

topkek

ah I understand
yes indeed
well I know catholicism and have come to like it that why I feel a bit christian but it is true, I am not a christian according to the credo since I do not believe Jesus was the son of god (nor that anyone is)

Realism i.e. the existence of god(s) is an unsolvable problem that I really no longer care about. I live my life according to my principles, if there is a creator and he judges me for this he can lick mah balls since he created the 4D universe and therefore literally constructed all of my experiences and views. IF theres in no god sweet kiss of death will be a release, or I'll hope to live until tech makes us immortal and decide whether I want to die then.
My philosophy bounces around in a vague space between nihilism, existentialism, hedonism and humanism.

Well, I'm a buddhist

kek

I don't know whether there is a God or not, but nothingness is an abstract concept, as well as non-existence, so I don't see the logic behind disappearing once you die. It doesn't make dualism completely true, it just gives way to dismiss the total death of self and consciousness

And don't give me that stupid "leave a legacy, you'll have touched people" bullshit because according to those who say it, those people will die too, and my "legacy" dies when they die

It is annoying when people who say we have no purpose later on tell me to make my purpose and legacy in a world where it ultimately does not matter. It almost makes it seem like a religion.

I decide what I do in every moment and I'll ever bear witness to my choices in the afterlife or not, and I can't bring myself to care or debate such insane, convoluted bullshit. I'm not going to change whatever beliefs you have unless you decide to let me, and there's no way you'll bluepill me on religion, I was born into a fundie family and I STILL didn't believe as a child. My reaction to church was basically

>In this moment, I am euphoric. Not because of any phony god’s blessing. But because, I am enlightened by my intelligence

fair enough. I respect Islam slightly more than Christianity for the record, as it seems to at least be trying to transmit legitimate culture instead of being largely unrelated memes integrated from raped and subverted native cultures (Equinox Christmas, Oester sunday etc). But I respect Pagan/nature worship more, and based Zen/Jain/Bhuddist detachment. I think that religion is an outmoded tool for transmitting useful cultural ideas (while also transmitting random insane useless bullshit) and I like studying them to mine these philosophies and apply them to my life to see if they are worth anything.
But yeah, all the trappings are just adults being manbabies and believing fables.

>whoever created religion
eeeech you lost me a bit there. I feel like Religion is actually a dopaminergically addictive hivemind function that emerged as a retardation that arises spontaneously in homo sapiens. Original tier religion was probably just monkeymen dancing around and chanting unlocking "higher realms", eventually woke monkeys realised it was nonsense and started manipulating the narrative to their own ends maybe, but most of the history of worshipping gods is prolly just wildly crazy people breaking into schizoid/OCD states and having "visions from god"... these would either turn out to be vaguely interpretable to events that later unfolded and they would be heralded a prophet, or innacurrate and they would be killed as "possesed" false prophets.
it's eventually evolved into a fucking meme structure, all religions borrowing from older religions or reacting to em like in musical genres EG Egyptian>Judaism>Chistcuck/Islam or Jainism>bhuddism/Hinduism

that's literally the only joke, that they're dead and it's being treated like a callous meme. Otherwise whats the point, "hahah the parents are slep and can't pas the auks chord?" LMAO lurk more or you'll never become desensitized

>I think humans are unique in some way

And if you were a lama you would think lamas are unique in "some way". Your egocentric philosophy is just an artifact of your human urges at a base level. Everyone thinks they are special, even non-humans.

>tipping your fedora this hard

Small brain means faster tipping

you are wrong but is hard to argue.
Religions are localized. You are never truly buddhist or christian unless you sorround yourself with the way of life, mentality, words, thoughts and scriptures of the region from which it comes.
In japan, things feel different, life is different.
There may exist those 5% but those are not of interest. Generally speaking, it is inauthentic, typically either a foreign import replacing a nihilism towards native religions, or forced on natives by external forces. Buddhism is an example for the first case in america.

t. Montaigne

well one purpose of religion (well religious education at least) is that kids get in contact with metaphysical, ethical, epistemological and even aethetistic thoughts and they get a well argumented answer to the questions regarding those thoughts. They can of course still turn their back on it later in life, but they have to do it in a logical manner, which is a good thing imo.
Most kids just never think about it nowadays.
That's why we have so many surfacey bullshit ideologies and religions

Judaism and it's offshoots really are degenerate, like most religions possibly but this is the sacred text I'm most familiar with

Personally I think it'd be more beneficial to teach critical thinking, debate and philosophy as soon as kids are capable of reading and reasoning in a school setting but of course that would require teachers not to be unintelligent failures at life for the most part

"Satanism" as in "let hand path philosophy where I worhsip myself as a deity" or randcucked levay showboating garbage? Because I can respect the former as a philosophy

>essentially christianity without the new testament
That's judaism, Hans.

Hail the eternal adversary

There is naught but god in me

He's right though. Religion initially existed as a means to explain what couldn't be explained ("Why is there thunder?" "Because the god of thunder is using thunder bolts to slay evil serpents.") and draw comfort from the world (death isn't horrible, cosmic sense of justice) but people readily jack religion for their personal gain, whether wealth or power. Case and point is the abuses of power of the papacy during the middle ages and the idea that kings were the rightful rulers because they were chosen by God as well stuff like the abuses of power and corruption of the Ummayad caliphs because "LOL we are the representative of God we can't be wrong."

Is religion inherently bad? No. Is organized religion inherently bad? No. But that doesn't mean that organized religion isn't easily corrupted and that one shouldn't be wary of religious leaders and their influence.

Protestantism seems really lame, it doesn't even feel like a religion, just a philosophy like those western philosophical Taoists who claim that there's no gods.

aux cable

Existentialism rejects the validity of any biological imperative as being subject to the will, and such no less definitive of purpose nor intent than any other socially conscieved structure.

Taoism is based, and asking "what's your religion" is asking "what's your philosophy/spirituality" unless you go to an organised group worship regularly. Taoism leans closer to spirituality for the most part, because there's belief in Chi to a certain degree. Zen is closer to what you were talking about, but it's not just there is no gods, there is no you because the human mind is an absurd fleeting construct

Can absurdism be a philosophy/spirituality? Kind of like existentialism but you find the fact that everything inherently lacks meaning to be really, really amusing. Because that's probably closest my actual philosophy (and I imagine a lot of other Cred Forums scum as well)

So, you don't believe that christ was the messiah, and you've distanced yourself from the book of enoch? Otherwise you're just a jew? Why not call yourself a Jew?

>Taoism leans closer to spirituality for the most part
It has tons of energetic exercises meant to make humans into gods. What have you been reading, The Tao of Pooh?

Pagan fag reporting in

That's a really weak definition of absurdism - the term has much less to do with your affective response to the lack of innate meaning to any object, act, subject, or system of relations, but rather to fixate on the disjunct of consciousness where an individual is forced to operate on the basis of multiple systems of presumed meaning while holding the awareness that the meaning itself is hollow, and self-imposed: That is absurdity. Whether or not you laugh is incidental.

I could say that, but I have no jewish blood
In addition, I am familiar with catholicism as I said, so Im basically just christian minus what I believe is wrong

Make sure to venerate your ancestors and the local spirits, not just the gods.

>The mighty religious need censorship to survive

sad

But the praxis and structure of catholocism are all entirely based on the notion that Christ was the literal embodiment of the godhead, and thus the gospels were divinely inspired to supercede prior revelation based on the shared covenant with christ?

Like, you practice judaism. Shit, you could probably get a Rabbi to take you through a bar mitzvah if you had enough chats about theology. You're just not confirmed.

Calvinist.
Unelected need not apply

Neo-pagan, you mean. There's little to know reliable documentation on the actuality of many pagan practices outside of the greco-roman mystery cults, and other near-east religions that you're probably not interested in.

Northern European/Celtic neopaganism is just neuevolkisch kitsch with panpipes and fucking new age co-option of south-asian praxis. They change the words, of course.

>We'll make sure that your grand children has a chance to pick between converting or getting the guillotine.

>taking any form of action after 15th century, except memeing on an online Mongolian Ox skinning forum
wew lad

Oupnekhatist

Catholicism at its core I felt was not Jesus centered. My impression was that it was more 'pure theology', its eye towards god rejecting the secular world, with less focus on specifics about Christ or his Love.

that is how I justify some attachment to catholicism.

But technically I lean more towards Judaism sure.

>assuming that Taoism isn't hella vague
The closest I've read to a taoist text is a Zen text that quoted and compiled a lot of taoist/bhuddist/zen philosophy, as well as being a more western-oriented analysis and not just vague hermit memes; written by a western psychologist. Hubert Benoit or something? it had a really dry title. But yeah, qi gong is a taoist practise, but not all toaists practise qi gong. Square/Rectangle relationship; Taoism is too vague a label an to me signifies a collection of wide ranging beleifs with similar elements.

hugh mungus is the only god you should ever praise user

oh ok. So this is indeed my philosophy. And I laugh, because humans and the universe are so fucking absurd, who could ever create or even dream this?

I use Taoism to refer to energetic practices, and Shenism to refer to the veneration of deities and ancestors and whatnot in Chinese culture. Also, Chinese folk magic.

nice dub-dubs. i agree that certain religions are localized (and with your original claim that western buddhists are inauthentic) but christianity is different.

considering the martyrdom that christians aspire to (especially in the wake of japanese persecution), christianity is universal.

Zen and the Psychology of transformation. Very dry but like I said good if you want a western-minded analysis of easter thought and not muh koans

>anti-hate speech laws protecting religious groups in the west.

Only shitskin religions

Christianity is free to be mocked, insulted, and hated

>I'm a Darwinistic extentialist. The only purpose of life is to reproduce, both genetically and socially. Someone who does not pass on their traits, is worthless. I value my countrymen before any other countrymen, and I value my race before any other race.
that's inconsistent m8. Your countrymen and members of your race are competitors to you just as much as niggers or chinks. If you actually had that position, you should hate everyone that isn't your offspring equally.

I am in the process of creating one

Look for the trident. That will be our symbol.

>christianity not being a shitskin religion

That strikes me as the main distinction between catholicism and gnosticism - within gnosticism, the focus is the contemplation of, and gaining an understanding of the self and the godhead. It still includes the Christ narrative, but more for the sake of symbolic analysis of the distance of man from god, and the means by which man may reascend to the godhood that is their potential.

Catholicism is very much focused on Christas a literal historic figure, whose presence on the earth enabled the redemption from sin.

Where are you learning these bads from, comrade?

well, ok, you can do that. IMO energetic practises are Qi Gong, literally that's all that is. Taoism has more baggages. Do I have to repeat the square/rectangle analogy? all squares are rectangles, not all rectangles are squares. All Qigong/eastern energetic practises are Taoist, but Taoism is by no means solely limited to energy redirection. In fact if that's all you're buying into you're eating a bunch of new-age woo (and admittedly useful excersise techniques tested over centuries) and missing a lot of interesting philosophical thought that isn't really related to Chi at all.

>but of course that would require teachers not to be unintelligent failures at life for the most part
yes, it would also require poor folks not to be anti intellectual. But that won't happen
Meanwhile everyone sends their kids to the mosque, even if they are uneducated

also theology doesn't start with the holy text but with thinking about the holy texts. That's where the good stuff happens

In all likelihood he's weak-minded enough to assume that the concept of nation is sufficient to establish enough of a sense of solidarity and community that he perceives others from nearby as having as much value as his own bloodline.

yup because we'll totally ever see this again. You're creating a personal spirituality that may be useful but that nobody else will ever care about. Props tho

whatever. IMO my kids are going to be really openminded and nearly impossible to bluepill if all goes well, and if the rest of society's kids are bluepilled they can thrive and dominate

Made me think

kek

Roman Catholic but its sad because the church is being cucked and falling to globalism and marxism too. I hate jews.

Still, some of the best architecture/ritual ambience out of the lot, which kind of makes it the best?

Like, this is the society of the spectacle, we're all just in this to be made to feel like we're doing something holy. The actual theological aspects be damned.

yes if you are an educated parent you can teach them critical thinking
But if the parents are uneducated retards (in Bangladesh) a good priest could save your life

Esoteric Jahanism

I did not know that about gnosticism.

I observed that protestants obsess about the figure jesus, his love and his teachings, while catholics do not exhibit that trait. That is why I chose to associate myself with catholics. Only after I began to understand the Jesus story as a trend towards humanism, where man desires to make a man god, did I reject that and became a 'catholic without Jesus', now maybe better called Jew or gnostic or what the names are.

Unironic Kekism

Yeah, the reformation really shifted the primary relationship to being between the individual and christ, rather than the individual and the church, as ordained mediator between humanity, christ, and the other guy (plus saints_.

Gnosticisms an interesting circumvention of all that, and just values your own commitment to furthering your understanding of the mysteries. Far less dogmatic than any of the other abrahamic religions, as far as I'm concerned.

How you identify is up to you tho - call yrself a syncretist if its easier, just means you take from a variety of different sourcebooks on the divine.

Christian here. I don't care if I die because I know I will live forever. This earth is a pile of garbage a f human society is filth.
If I could push a button and end the planet I would became it means I will spend eternity in paradise praising God and you will burn.
You wouldn't die for anything. You are weak. Your beliefs are weak. Accepting death and being ready to die to further a cause is strength. People like you that fear death will wayside to the believer ready to do to further the cause they believe in.
Christianity should have the fervor of Islam. We should be killing atheists and bombing places that hurt the cause of our LOrd.

Durka durka Jesus jihad!

Still falling to the desert djinni hoax

I disagree. Death is the main creator of religion .

I wish we had a Christian ISIS I would love to kill atheists and see the terror as they face eternity and post videos of them begging for Christ at the end.

I'm technically a presbyterian like my mom was. My dad was a catholic. I personally asked to get christened when I was 10.

I'm just kinda winging it now. There is something out there that is beyond our human understanding. I do not take the idea of deities amongst all faiths literally. What's what a lot of people seem to get caught up on. They fail to see the symbolism behind it and refuse to take away whatever positive values and teachings it may offer.

There is power in the Holy Spirit to change lives.

My religion is Cred Forums these days. It makes the most sense. Make of that what you will.

but eh probably kekism heil kek

You are making excuses for none of it being real. You dont need to be part of a religion to recognize that some religions have some wisdom hidden in them behind the bullshit.

Recently I happened to come across the story of Adam and Eve and their loss of innocence again and realized its just a metaphor for needing intelligence to be capable of evil. We were never thought that when we were told the story as children. Also it was warped into something stupid.

>Looking at the moon,
>suddenly I feel like playing KEK's anthem Shadilay.
>reach to my phone
>it's 2:22 am

That's where I was going when I was talking about symbolism. The positive values and teachings you take away from symbolic interpretation is the power, or the means to achieve it.

Existential nihilist. Yes I'm the most red-pilled guy in here

Symbols have no power. An entity with power can make it appear that it does, though. And a greater entity can stop it.
