    Porn ruins lives, men’s impression of women and objectifies women, as well as pornhub helping facilitate the trafficking of children and being lenient on cp. But sure, it’s all about this “unverifiable” book, I guess

      Religion ruins lives, men’s impression of women and objectifies women, as well as The Church helping facilitate the trafficking of children and being lenient on cp. But sure, it’s all about this “unverifiable” book, I guess

      Organized religion has ruined far more lives than porn ever has, both directly and indirectly.

      Millions upon millions of deaths and countless unnecessary suffering can be laid at the feet of religion, there’s a war going on because of religion right now. What was the last war that was started over porn? I don’t remember any crusades “in the name of porn”. Porn is all inclusive of everyone’s backgrounds, can’t say the same for religion.

      And don’t go all “those are different sects/church’s, can’t blame their actions on my Church” blah blah blah, I could throw a dart at a dart board full of every religion, sect and church and pull up some deep dark atrocities about the one it lands on.

        So what about Atheism then? You know, Maoist China, Soviet Russia and very arguably Nazi Germany

          So you’re saying it’s impossible to be moral and atheist at the same time. That’s interesting I wonder how you justify the holy wars then?

          Get out of here with your nonsense. If you’re not going to engage in actual discussion just don’t start.

            I literally never said that. I was pointing out how athiest regimes, upon the dismissal of God, still carried out genocide and murder. I was pointing out how the argument saying religion causes atrocities is fundamentally stupid.

            Any time I claimed atheism was bad was making a point to how another side of the argument can be made. Devil’s advocate, if you will.

          WhAt AbOuT AtHeISM

          Stfu, I’ve read through your other comments and that’s the only counter point you ever bring up, and I said nothing about it.

          You’re trying to be subtle about it, but it’s still evident that you’re a run of the mill “Don’t turn away from god! You’ll go-to hell! Don’t sin! Think about ThE AfTErLifE! No sex before marriage!” Religious nut.

          You even have a comment towards someone: (I’m not going back to copy/paste so paraphrasing) “You’re telling people to prioritize 70-90 years of their life instead of eternity in the afterlife” yea no shit, our 70-90 years are the only thing somewhat guaranteed vs a mythical afterlife

          But as I’ve learned in my life, there’s no point in bringing up structured counter points with a religious nut as they’ll just constantly pull gotchas out their ass. So bye 👋
