    Yeah. Arabic Christians literally call their God “Allah” too.

      It’s all the same invisible sky daddy anyway, just interpreted through different hallucinations 🤷

          That you’ve been doing something ridiculous for a long time doesn’t make it any less stupid. Quite the opposite.

          Also, this is Lemmy, not Reddit.

              Holy strawman, Batman!

              I’m very far from being a nihilist. I believe in things that can actually be verified. I believe in some people and some ideals.

              I just don’t base my beliefs on self-contradictory and often batshit insane orders from long dead idiots and wielders of unearned authority pretending to represent a fictional being that’s its own dad.

                In another comment you kept linking Christianity with paedophilia, which is a big strawman. And trying to ask me why I didn’t drown nonce priests like I am in charge of a completely different denomination which I am not even a member of.

                  No. There is a shitload of evidence of widespread child rape committed by Christian churches. There’s no evidence of me being a nihilist and there wouldn’t be since I’m not.

                  And trying to ask me why I didn’t drown nonce priests

                  That was obviously a facetious rhetorical question.

                    Yes, but there’s evidence of athiests being nihilists and claiming that ‘nothing matters’ and believing in subjective morality, which has led to atrocities. So suddenly Christianity represents the actions of all Christians but Athiesm doesn’t represent the actions of all Athiests?

                    So if you’re using various Christian institutions as arguments against Christianity, then I could easily point to large Athiest countries like Maoist China and Soviet Russia who murdered millions. Or Nazi Germany (Don’t try and claim Hitler was a Christian; he most certainly was not and was only using the label to get votes) who tried to dehumanise humans into being less than animals.
