Evil is definitely subjective.
In this context i would describe it as highly asocial behaviour and hurting others.
Most of my social circle is officially Christian, but at the mature level where god is an abstract force rather then a bearded dude in the sky.
I would find it hard to distinguish them from other mature people of other religions. With a certain open mindned… all religions do actually become similar in that they discuss philosophy on similar matters, like morality, purpose, growth
Something many people forget is that almost all religion contain a multitude of different, sometimes opposing ideologies build on a same source and share some practices.
Even geological speaking. Christianity in the US knows many cultish forms that are unique to the US.
Historically to be considered Christianity the only things that are really required
- believe that death is not the end of life
- believe in a singular highest being that is good in nature.
- consider the mythological figure of Jesus to be an exemplary good rolemodel
You can be a religious and oppose the church of your own religion…. Jesus did.. many very religious people where burned for being heretics by their own church simply because their actual faith was stronger then the mindcontrol of doctorine.
There is also agnostic religious.. just like agnostics atheism which is where you accept that you cant know proof eitherway and have to made a personal choice. (Usually therefor not judging others for a different choice).
But again agnostic religious people aren’t going to talk about their personal faith unless prompted.. and definitely not in public near zealots who can accuse them of heresy.
I don’t know this. Lets say i am agnostic about this but i feel like your speaking from experiencing a very loud subgroup that does not represent the majority.
