apart from the part where you stand in judgemet above all judges the context of my comment was about genital mutilation. which is not prescribed in the second testament. to become christian requires a change of heart.

funny as i think about it now as you complain about people glorifying them selves as you pass judgement upon all of them. i remember dawkins king of the antitheist monkeys to man declaring themselves the pinnacle of evolution declaring for themselves their own godhood and honoring it with the title of "brights"

i sense you have a history with the catholic institution? its been my experience the most bitter of people also have cathoilc ties of some kind.

I think most people who are now having adverse feelings towards Christianity stems from the things they see mainly in the United States and how these so called Christians especially in US politics appeared to be fervent, compassionate and law a binding create laws that are not.
It doesn't help that with how the USA works, a lot of cults and prosperity gospel churches are having such power and grip on the population that the people are being controlled.
There are some crazy ass people in the Church with crazy power and wealth.

God - Your life has meaning, be thankful, make holy choices and be productive

No God - Youre a cellular accident, feel guilty for your existence

That is not true. A lot of people live lives that do not surround a higher entity and still comes out as being good people.

Some of the happiest people I know don't believe in god or live under fear of hell unless you pay the church money or pray a certain times a week.
This is such a simpleton take.

Personally I think we have our own thoughts and will to create internal happiness. God is simply a placebo at best. It gives people a reason to practice creative thought and ascribe to a higher purpose. For example just like cigarettes have been known to calming the smoker all it does is give the person an excuse to practice intentional breathing meditation. Take it away and you have the same effect without the downsides and more money in your pocket.
So in a way religion is like cigarettes.
