It is freeing to recognize that I have never sinned and it pissed Christians off when I say this. To clarify, in Christianity sin is not simply “the bad things we do” it is specifically an offense against god. God does not exists so i have never sinned against him.
I’ve been an atheist for for 16 years but it was only recently that I realized this distinction. It short-circuits the guilt based evangelism. It forces the christian to first demonstrate that god exists before they can convince me I have sinned and need to be saved from that sin. And to say the least, they are ill equipped to demonstrate the existence of god.
god’s version was like a shitty draft of short stories and some people made a really terrible translation of it and tried to tie it all together in the same universe
Like how Nintendo tries to say the Zelda series is cohesive, lol
(Except Zelda is amazing, imo)
