rofl way to strawman their beliefs... Sure, it makes sense when you leave out everything made up.
Nowhere did I say they're AS BAD as Christians et. al., but belief without evidence is still fucking stupid and harmful to yourself and anyone you teach such drivel to.
idk man saying it doesn't matter what religion you're talking about sounds like you think they're all equally bad to me.
Also idk who's beliefs you think I'm making a strawman out of but I was refering to my own beliefs that help me to actually go into nature as I can at least 4 times a year to help with my depression, maybe I'm more open to it because up until a few years ago I was studying to become a conservationist but it's certainly better than back when I also thought that anyone who believes in something is a dumbass
Your personal religion is not an established religion that has done things theoughout history... So again... good job strawmanning your own argument.
I'm leaning more into druidic paganism personally but paganism has had a massive impact across the planet through it's different forms.
Vikings, Celts, Romans, Greeks, ancient Egyptians, native Americans and aboriginal Australians all practiced / practice some form of pagan religion. If you genuinely believe that not a single one of those culture groups have done anything throughout history then you clearly need to learn some things yourself before you criticise people for believing in any religion.
But I guess I shouldn't expect someone who can't even remember their own arguments to actually understand anything about the world outside their basement.
