i find the trend of getting offended at goth people for wearing rosaries so funny because it’s like,,,,, how do you know they’re not ex-catholic? how do you know they’re not irish? or polish? or mexican? or italian?

you gonna tell them they can’t interact with imagery from their own culture? pls lmao.

No tags because what the actual fuck?

"Imagine there's no heaven It's easy if you try No hell below us Above us, only sky

...

Imagine there's no countries It isn't hard to do Nothing to kill or die for And no religion, too"

--- Excerpt from Imagine by John Lennon

Do you know how many witches the Inquisition burned?

None of them.

witches don't exist

It wasn't witches who burned, it was women.

Beautiful, cultured and intelligent women. Women accused of having water in the well or for cultivating and caring for their beautiful plantation. They were convicted of having a birthmark, for being skillful with herbal medicine, for being tall, black or red-haired.

They condemned those who showed a strong connection to nature, those who danced or sang. The ones who looked happy. To those who looked independent and powerful.

For the Holy Inquisition and many other groups throughout history, any free-spirited woman should have been burned or thrown into the water. If it floated it was guilty and executed. If she was sinking and drowning she was declared innocent and then her soul would go to heaven.

Many, thousands of them were thrown off cliffs or placed in deep holes in the ground by beings who felt superior to them, almost gods.

Why am I even writing this?

Because knowing history is important when it comes to building a new society and a new world. It is urgent to give voice to all women in honor of those who were humiliated, beaten, tortured and massacred. Long live to independent, strong and powerful women.

It wasn't witches who burned, it was... women.

i can fix him *traumatizes him*

“Not to shade religious people but it’s kinda chilling how some folks praise Abraham for being willing to kill Isaac for God to prove his devotion. Like idk about y’all, but if God told me to kill my son i’d kinda be like maybe this isn’t the god for me.”

Religion prioritizes submission, devotion, obedience, blind faith, etc. so it’s obvious what that tale was trying to do. They’re telling the followers that they will be rewarded for putting their god above any other.

“You must submit, but you have to do it willingly (like Abraham), forced submission is the same as no submission.”

They’re portraying this behavior as something to be praised and something to strive for. Abrahamic religions only give the illusion of “choice”. The tale is used to keep the followers in line while making them think that they’re admirable and worthy of praise because they chose to submit.

im sorry reddit made atheism cringe for your or whatever but i'd take an annoying atheist over a weirdo esoteric christofascist any day
