Discussion What are your reasons for not being a Christian?

Well I'm talking to somebody, aren't I? Even if you don't exist, I still don't care. I don't get why God existing is such a big deal anyways, he either does or doesn't, so who cares?
As for god, well, if he does exist, then how come I haven't had a single interaction with him, and if he did exist at some point, just admit that he doesn't exist anymore, he's dead.

I'm just words on a screen. And it'd be pretty boring if God came down and fixed every problem for you.

Christianity is a strange thing, it's an obnoxious way of belief, similar to Trannies. Trannies attempt to force you to respect their made up gender identity, like how Christians force you to expect the idea that theres a wizard in the sky who does magic n shit. Most people who are Christian are very simple, too neurotypical, they suck up to authority easily, because that's what it's all about, it's about having an imaginary figure of authority guide you throughout life, and I'm not like that. I rely on logic and reasoning, not emotion and made up fantasies.

And as for how the world works, the world starts and ends at my bedroom door, I don't care about God.

Good Lord, I just said how soyjaks are dying a moment ago, and then I behold the most quintessential thing soyjaks are meant to satirize. If that isn't proof of divinity, I don't know what is.

If I may offer a more general philosophical perspective, Christian belief is deeply rooted in the idea that there are objective truths. If one accepts this premise, then faith is not a contradiction to reason, rather it is simply the logical conclusion that there are truths beyond which the human mind can grasp. To deny that is to claim you are omnipotent. The first sip from the cup of knowledge may offer an intoxicating taste of power, but it will not last. You will learn why tales that caution against pride is as old as time. Nothing will ever be enough to prove God to you, your fundamental worldview denies the very concept.

Maybe you just don't wanna lose your own faith, I get that. There's no point in arguing with someone who doesn't have faith anyways, but theres honestly no point talking about it with them either. I have yet to see anyone give me a solid enough reason to have faith in God, it just doesn't concern me. It's like someone telling me to become a Muslim or something, I just don't care. I imagine that for foreigners they don't care either. The only argument people can give is that "Well, it's factual. It's the truth." but they seemingly can't elaborate on it, it just proves my point of what religion is, it's blind conformity to authority without question.

Wanna know what I believe? Who cares. It's always good to remain skeptical, its why we have opinions anyways. If religion is real, then is all science wrong? Or do we have to somehow do mental gymnastics to make science somehow fit in with religion, it's whatever. I'd rather believe things that seem more convincing to me rather than "Because I said so, okay?"

And I'm not really a fan of that, we live in a universe of uncertainty. Only some things can be objectively true. Others, we just don't know yet.

Most of this is just mental gymnastics. The only good thing about Christianity is it's strong morals, but with that comes it's sickening sense of pride, wrath and ego of it's own, it's superior righteousness to claim that it and only it is the truth and the only truth, giving no credence to any other sense of thought or ideas. It's just stupid.

Again, what are we even fighting about? I don't give a shit about god, nothing changes if he's real or not.

No, I just don't want you to get mad at me. Sorry.
 
Heres the biggest trvke of this entire thread: God could be real, Muhammed could be real, fucking Santa Claus and the boogiemen could be real, earth could actually be flat, we could actually be living in a simulation and the jews are poisoning my water supply and food to make me die faster. What does it change? Nothing. I don't care.

It's all a waste of time. Mental placebo, if you will. Good for depression, I guess, "muh god says i should stay alive" well then keep staying alive pal, you'll meet your god someday. As for me though, I don't care, it changes nothing.
