"Of course I love hanging out with lepers. It's funny as shit when their digits fall off and they freak out. Even funnier what they do when I heal that shit."

Literally literally Jesus Christ

the problem is Jesus is fucking rad, but God's an asshole, and apparently you're not allowed to think there's a difference

What if God was one of us?

Jesus was the original soft white underbelly

im all except drug user

Yo

missionaries talk to all sorts of people that they hate. i still don't respect them. same with jesus. he didnt talk with these people to learn, but to proselytise

Hands up for who is all those people at once!

I'm like 2.5/5 (.5 bc I'm depressed snd got OCD and people think I "sound autistic")

I like talking to them when they're 5/5

So I'm Jesus? Good to know.

Jesus was a guy. So were the thousands of random crazy streetside people yakkin about whatever random shit.

There is no god. There is no such thing.

There is no afterlife. There is no such thing.

There is only this life and right now.

THIS. IS. YOUR. LIFE.

RIGHT. NOW.

No sky dadddies, no mythological creatures. Just society and not being a terrible fucking human to others.

Morality and therefore ethics are made up by all of us, dynamically, variably, to exact control, unity, and to benefit that which we want. Don't get that confused and all fucked up with cults. Religion is all cults, and always has been and always will be, because it's FAITH. You have to take something as true with no evidence. That's what faith is.

Be offended. Be upset. Struggle, cope, grow, find real purpose, and stop wasting your life on cult abuse. Fuck religions. They can be interesting, fascinating... Hell, even appealing. But it's all fake, made up bullshit to affect peoples' behavior in some way.

The stuff that matters and is real is staring you right smack dab in the face. So take a deep breath, know that you've been had. Accept it, mourn the lie and the loss, and try to do and be better. Morality exists well and healthy completely outside of religion, you just have to actually think about it.

And for those of you who have or will have kids, please please please consider teaching your kids how to be good people and find real happiness. It's definitely possible and happens all the time.

Welcome to your life. The horrors of being aware of your own real mortality, and what that means. It's hard, but it's also the most meaningful thing you'll ever have. It's a shame to waste it in delusion.

So don't.

Go outside. Smile at somebody who's having a hard time. Build community. These things are real.

Have a potluck. Go see a movie. Pretend you believe. It's okay sometimes. That's the power of being human... And being truly alive.

This stuff takes time to unpack, unlearn, consider, and relearn how to live. Religion is everywhere. Class war is everywhere. Fucked up stuff is everywhere.

If you decide this isn't for you, that's okay, you can go back. But if you do, please please please understand that your worldview can absolutely hurt others when you think you may be doing the right thing or even do nothing at all. Every action, word, inaction, silence, and thought really happens, and can affect yourself and others.

Being alive is a great adventure. But remember that, just like walking ancient halls or along the earth's surface in this solar system, in this galaxy, in this universe, we, our minds, our somewhat self aware nervous systems, being alive for however long we have left - are all just visitors here. We don't exist, then we do, then we don't, again... We are visiting. Until, someday, we must say goodbye, and take the forever sleep.

When I hit submit on this comment, I'm gonna stretch, and feel my body for what it is and what it's capable of, all my limits, and appreciate that I can feel it at all. I'm alive, for now. And that's awesome. And you should do that, too, if you can. And if you can't, do whatever you can do, and know that you're alive, too, for now, and that's awesome.

I hope any and all of you who read this have the best possible day you can.

Breathe, drink more water, stretch, and appreciate being alive.
