GTFIH: Are you religious, if yes/no, why?

[kiannnn]

I just stumbled upon a post of someone saying they regret being an atheist, saying every atheist is miserable and depressed. (post by @ChioMaxiMix2025 ) I am what you would call an atheist and i’m doing quite well. Im just a little scared that if there is a god that we should pray to and shiet, i’m gonna be kinda fucked.

Now first off, Christianity, Islam and Judaism don’t make the slightest sense to me, because according to Christianity and Judaism, earth is only a couple thousand years old, which is obviously untrue.
(Of course it could all just be a matter of interpretation)

But here’s what’s really holding me away from believing in any of these: Since when were humans actually humans? What i mean by this is that from what point in time did religious rules apply to man? And if you say since the bible/quran/torah was written, what happened to the people before these books were delivered? Were they just excluded from Gods judgement?
How would a primitive human know that him killing another person would end with him being trapped in hells flames forever? And why don’t religious laws apply to animals?

What would make somewhat religious sense to me would be a starting blow of life (from a creator) being followed by years and years of evolution ending up with us humans.

Tell me what you guys think about this because i think it’s the most interesting topic ever and it crosses my mind every few months and makes me lose my mind in theory’s and shieet.

I'm religious but I don't really buy into any of the mainstream religions. if there is a God he would understand the fact that it is nearly impossible to choose the right religion. I think if you try to be the best person you can, and better yourself, God will send you to heaven, or whatever

 

[Androgynous]

I'm agnostic and against religion. It just makes the most sense
Deism, Atheism, Buddhism, Satanism are also cool imo

 

[bibisilover41]

[Societal Reject]

Being religious is to relax your mind

I am religious and a muslim and i can answer all these points

1. It is said that righteous humans before religion you will still enter heaven, besides its not like people back then were stupid, matter of fact they might have a higer IQ then most people nowadays. So yes they had a moral compass. Remember primitivity ≠ stupid

2. Obviously we would know killing our own kind is wrong, firstly some animals in nature dont kill their own, secondly back then it was all about manpower and thirdly humans did experience emotions so they could tell it was wrong.

3. We were born at the perfect time because if we were just dropped into any prehistoric era humanity would go extinct instantly, like for example not only is it a danger factor its a utility factor, imagine we were born before dinosaurs. No engines or generators we wouldn't evolve past 17th century technology without fossil fuel and other animals to hunt for survival.

these are the answers to all the points you have made (answered by Islam) i hope you can take this seriously because hellfire is described as a punishment so severe, that you would pray to god till your back breaks so you dont enter it.

yes, your life has no meaning without religion.

I want to clear this up, Christianity does not state the earth is only a thousand years old, it’s some people’s interpretation that really made people think that but it’s not true, we agree the earth is just as old as you think it is

If you have any other questions I’d be happy to answer them

The concept of a God doesn't make any sense to me

pascal's wager

don't know which one to believe in though.

out of the 3 abrahamic ones, which imo are the only have that even have a possibility of being true, islam and christianity seem the most reasonable/consistent and logical.
