(39,343 posts)One of my main gripes about religion is that it conditions people to accept some far out shit in order to belong to the club. Believing that angels knocked up a virgin or that some dude lived in a whale's belly, makes other things like magnetic vaccines and lizard people more plausible. Religion trains people to be stupid and believe nonsense.

sites and TV/radio in order to cause division and social unrest in America. Besides many white right wing evangelicals
have come to see Trump as a deity installed by God just like the QAnon people too.
