Leftypol Religious census

Eh, protestant, catholic and orthodox are roughly equal in size. Then one would justify split between shiite & sunni and then you go down the rabbit whole.

...

I hate this board

Oh shit Holla Forums is on to us. Holla Forums is 100% jews confirmed.

Christians ITT read Bakunin

Nah I'm good bruv.

What does that have to do with his Anarchist teachings.

read Bakunin

What Bakunin.

Nothing, but they are talking about his social teachings.

Bakunin was a shit but this is a very bad and self-segregating mentality for a leftist to have

Atheist GANG

God and the state

...

So I'm not the only Jew around here?

Did you mean Animist / Animistic?

Or did you mean Autistic?

Of course not. But a lot of us are Atheist, too.

Well all religion, including Judaism should be discouraged. Reminder Judaism is a religion, not an ethnicity. there is no such thing as being “Culturally Jewish.”

Marx was a fucking Ultra-Sectarian. You don’t have to agree with Marx on everything.

...

...

What makes you assume our faith can't hold and promote revolutionary aspects?

What if I'm "culturally religious" but don't actually believe?

...

Why is there no Cult of the Supreme Being?

Old Testament/Torah

I'm not exactly sure what that means, but if it is what I think it is, then nobody, including you, should care.

...

Same thing goes for Christan Socialism/Islamic Socialism. Religious texts, espeeciouly ones of Abrahamic religions contain some of the most far-right shit you will ever see.

I know this guy is a liberal, but the same thing still applies. Religion is nothing more than an ideology.

This.
Also wtf OP, Christian? Why should my papist ass have to be grouped in with Protestants?

The disagreement between the cult of the supreme being and the cult of reason was like a distilling of all theological political sentiment down to its barest
Tbh, pretty hype

Catholics and Protestants still believe in the same Christian ideology. Religions IS an ideology.

...

Religion is picking the parts of the book you like, because there is no way you can follow the books without doing that, they are extremely self contradictory, you pick bits that inform any ideology you want. If that ideology is left-wing, cool. If not, not cool, it's that simple.

No.

You either are a theist or you aren’t. If your religion is unquestinbuly true, then why do you reject parts of it. Parts of a thing which you consider the unquestinbual truth.

Religion is either right or it’s wrong. No in between.

doesn't hurt to be embarassed every now and then

read bakunin

This is not how it works in practice, nor has it ever worked like this, it's literally impossible.
Theist can't help but to do this, if they follow one thing in the book, there's going to be a part in he book they're contradicting.
They believe in god, not the book.

I think people should read the koran or the torah once in their life.

I guess that progress is my religion, because I believe that no theory is complete, and no moral system is perfect… yet.

I believe we are improving, and so are our theories, and so are our moral systems.

So… every religion is "wrong", but that's a technicality. Some are more wrong than others, and none are the final word on human morality.

Reading is good.

Yeah, I'd agree with that tbh. Reading is good like said. I think the bible is arguable more important to most people in the west though, so more people would get value out of reading the Bible than reading the torah or koran

As in finding all the contradictions and realising how ridiculous the religions are.

Religion says that it’s the absolute truth. So it takes only disproving one part to say it’s all lies.

Was raised Catholic but am now an atheist. Put agnostic though because I think that’s what I generally refer to myself as

...

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exegesis
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allegorical_interpretation_of_the_Bible
Not even the early Christians thought that

But, IN PRACTICE (I apperantly can't stress this enough), it doesn't work like that, ideology and all .

It's less ridiculous than you'd think

C'mon now

...

It must be that abstract religion that no one actually practices that everyone's been talking about. That one is a lot easier to critique apparently.

wew, I guess that's to be expected of a place so prone to dogmatism as Holla Forums

Blaming it on Christianity is a lot easier than wondering why leftists are so prone to cults of personality, or calls for orthodoxy against revisionism, etc.

blaming what on Christianity? I don't understand how your post relates to mine.

This makes me hard

The same is true with everything in the book, if it didn't work like this, there would be no catholic protestant divide. Why is this hard for you.

This is a brainlet tier take even for nu-atheist types

I misread your post wew

I dont think its worthy and has no place in the modern world.

M'lady Tier

T. Lutheran pleb

lol Protestantism is basically the neoliberal version of Christianity at this point. I guess that's what inevitably happens when you divorce yourself from the concept of apostolic authority. the only exception is the Mormons

Catholicism is by far the worst branch of Christianity. The Spanish Republicans had the right idea.

Oy vey!

Does anyone want some roasted nun by any chance?

Shithead if you were a marxist, you wouldn’t be Chr*stian. Materialism and religion are water and oil.

Leftists who identify as agnostics are surely aware of the nature of the actually‐existing theism and nevertheless feel the need to admit, when defining themselves, that our ideological enemies may be correct

Leftist if you are not certain that you are correct, then leave

This is likely the most autistic thing I've ever seen posted on this website tbqh

...

At least I'm not claiming to know something without empirical evidence dickwad.

I guess you do not go to other boards.

I don't tbh. Holla Forums is literally the only bearable chan board on the net.

Let me guess, you don't know that atheism isn't the belief in no god, it's the lack of belief in god.

I don't treat Marx as an infallible prophet whose every word is doctrine, so I don't really give a shit if I'm labelled a Marxist or not. Anyone who does is stupid.

Agnostic: a person who believes that nothing is known or can be known of the existence or nature of God or of anything beyond material phenomena; a person who claims neither faith nor disbelief in God.
Atheist: a person who disbelieves or lacks belief in the existence of God or gods.

So these can mean the same thing?

After doing a few quick searches, not quite. Agnostics believe that we'll never know if there is or isn't a God/Gods and I guess atheists believe it's a possibility that we'll find out eventually or something like that? Never really researched it much and I fell for the atheism believes there is no God(s) meme.

atheist

Agnostics are beta atheists who won't dare admitting they don't believe in god.

There's always gnosticism, quite nice really, considering the potential for healthy interpretation.
Somewhat like with alchemical thought, it can serve quite the philosophical inspiration if you cast aside what popular culture suggests.

Rather, atheism "there is no god"
agnosthic "i don't know if there is a god."

The worst part is I know this is not a typo.

this tbqh

Not quite there, look up weak and hard agnosticism.
I'm a weak agnostic but I simply don't have faith as I'm not spooked.

Any Asatru Volk here besides me and Varg?

Agnosticism is the only scientific answer.

(a)theism is a position on whether or not there is a god
(a)gnosticism is a position on whether or not the above position is (or can be) certain.

Most people who are atheists are agnostic (the ones who aren't probably don't understand the nature of their beliefs). Most people who are agnostic are atheists (the agnostic theists are making Pascal's wager essentially).

Agnosticism is not a religious classification. It's an epistemological position. See

Where's the gnostic option?

I know.

No, volunteer goons.

I hope you meant animist OP.

Religion is the opiate of the masses.
