why do people still believe in god

[laplacist]

only exception is you are under the age of 15, even 14 tbh if you are have an above average mental capacity

i wont even make the sky daddy arguments (ohh brooo but i read the Aquinas 5 args ill prove god exists)

i dont care

maybe there is an omniscent "being" that created the universe but they surely didn't make any of these foolish religions

if you believe in a loving god in 2026 ur a fucking iqlet

because Christ is Lord and God and the Transcendental Argument for God proves it

It was never about religions, holy books, gods, spirits, etc. in the true sense of the word, because they are just tools that people can use (just like the key to change the wheel on a car) they are human creations (they are dependent and influenced by geographical area, culture, society, and more than anything, by historical period)

They have no connection with reality, nature, the laws of nature (even though they talk about them, they talk about what people have already noticed about them lol), or at least with other species of animals (no other species of animals has such tools, lol, the female parrot does not reject the male parrot because he has not read the holy book of parrots)

These tools are just stories and beliefs to form people who are initially strangers, to gather under the umbrella of some common things, and to work as a community in certain directions and interests, no matter what they are

(pure socializing and spending free time with other people, the idea of making new friends, the idea of finding a partner, the idea of starting a family, the idea of finding a job, the idea of finding business partners in various fields, etc. etc.)

What the girl in the video below says, and more specifically, the girl in the background who says ''It's like the solution at life'' is that if the entire population of the planet could use these tools, like how they use a spoon or fork to eat, life would finally have ''a solution'' in the sense that there would be no more wars, everyone would live in peace, harmony, there would be no more conflicts, etc. which is theoretically true, but unfortunately at the moment it is not realistic for this to happen..

Obviously, there are also people (like the girls above for ex) who were simply born and raised in religious families, so for them things like whether God exists or not are not a question, they are a certainty, like 1 + 1 = 2, and no one can change that for them, but these are a completely different category of people, and they cannot be blamed for ''still believing'' in God.. because it's like someone trying to convince you that 1 + 1 = 3, that's how absurd it sounds to them, and that's just because they were programmed that way from birth, it's not their personal/individual fault

The greatest trick elites pulled off is convincing most of society to deprioritise Spirituality. Causing millions to fall into Spiritual slumber

Meanwhile all their monetary resources, time and energy is dedicated towards their Spiritual goals

Religion was a way for the historical lower classes to cope with their shitty lives because “Bro I swear we just gotta farm and see our families die for a few decades then we live in paradise forever bro trust me”

Also why I think it inhibits progress because the goal of a follower would be to maximize their “heaven potential” by living that kind of lifestyle instead of working on the world as it is because a lifetime on Earth is absolutely nothing compared to an eternity in paradise. So why would they improve the world?

"If the retarded and illiterate shitskins from thousands of years ago who would score below a 70 on the average WAIS-V test today believed in these "prophets" they must be special"

Have you heard of wishful thinking? There was no explanation for things in the world at those times, so humans created the idea of a "God" who created all of them.

No longer needed and anyone who still believes in religion is a waste of oxygen

how religious people feel when their parents religion also happens to be the one true religion (what a fucking coincidence)

religion is geography.

 

[Mess]

Pastoral cultures like the Yamnya worshipped sky father, whereas the agricultural cultures like the Neolithians worshipped mother earth.

The Yamnya would wish for good weather and healthy livestock, whereas the Neolithians would wish for fertile soil and good harvests. Religion ultimately ties back to the human desire for prosperity.

Matter of fact, I will debate and crush you despite not even being studied on the topic to show you how retarded you are. Matter cannot be created or destroyed only transferred, this is a principle law of physics or something. Matter exists therefore it was created, something created material reality, I believe this was a sentient being. As additional proof I invoke proof we are in a designed word/ simulation
the Nobel prize https://www.nobelprize.org/prizes/physics/2022/popular-information/
and this video
youtu.be/f_FcbzMt9L8
Which is apparently proof we live in a simulation though I won't die on this hill since I didn't care to read or really watch, if you can disprove this acts as proof the word is "simulated" then I will concede this point. If we live in a simulation according to this stuff, then our existence was designed by an intelligent creator which is called god, this is simply the name given to the intelligent creator of our existence.

europe was mostly christian historically…
how insane

Religion is a net positive for humanity, I do truly believe that. Religious institutions have immeasurably improved social cohesion theres no denying that.

There have been numerous studies showing that religious people are happier and more fulfilled than non religious people.

Even with all this, religion is simply just a structure made by humans to fill in the gaps of what they did not know…

a good structure but not a true structure. but most importantly it is an effective structure.

i would be so much happier if i believed that i would live in paradise forever after i died, but i know that’s not true
ignorance is bliss

Look into Nonduality
You don’t wait for the afterlife to achieve Liberation

It is achieved while you are alive. By dissolving Ego through living a life of selfless service to others, without expectation for reward

It will force you to see the same Divinity within everyone and everything

And then Max Stirner walks into the room:

I don't understand the idea of self-harming altruism. Why would you purposely hinder yourself to help another? Is this whole servitude to others not just betting on the postulation that the universe is one being? I like the idea of it, but I just can't get behind it.
