Ex-believers, what made you quit your religion/cult?
  • The final nail in the coffin for me was looking at a world map and thinking about other religions. These people here were raised on this religion, and they believe wholeheartedly that they are right. But, I also believe that I am right. Everyone believes their religion is right, and that belief is solely based on what you were exposed to in your region. Doesn't that mean it's all bullshit? Only one belief can be right. Religion is shaped by the culture of the land, and if the culture changes, so does the religion. With all the changes to each religion over time, that means the original beliefs are gone, or the original "correct" religion is gone. I suppose a current one could be the correct one. It's just infinitly likely that there is no god since religion is formed by those in power instead of an actual god contacting the people of the world.

  • What movies have you watched this week?
  • Haven't finished it yet, but Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. The movie feels like a fever dream where the Bee Gees play as a small band getting a record deal in Hollywood. Very odd, but the creativity in each scene makes it hard to stop watching.
