Thats exactly how I think like, Im an atheist, but if religion is something that helps some people through their problems or makes them feel complete, well would that be bad?

I agree, but unfortunately, others don't and think religion is awful and terrible idea because they've likely had it pushed onto them which it shouldn't be.

That happened to me, my parentd send me to catholic school for 5 years. In a way it help me. Just to realize that religious people werent lunatics and they were just normal people (I was scared of them until I was 10). So yes I was pretty upset and confused at the time but well it worked out for me. I guess it depends on everyone's experience.

I'm not religious. Religion brought me guilt and fear and resentment growing up, so I don't think I ever will be. But I recognize that for some people, it brings peace and comfort. And honestly, as long as you don't use it to justify being hateful, I'm all for that. I'm very you-do-you as long as you let me do me. Just--everyone should do what makes them happy, and allow others the same liberty.

I find nothing wrong with religion and fully support people's right to have it/practice it but I've always found it strange that some people apparently need the threat of eternal damnation to be a nicer person

I'm religious, but though most of my friends are atheist they still love coming to church with me because of the community, which is the way i wish everywhere could be

Religion is like alcohol; it's fine in moderation. It's the idiots who abuse it and then go out in public who cause the problems.

I can't tell if this is intentionally joking about the catholic church, or if it's just a happy accident.

Yea, i don't mind religion but as soon as you push it into others I'll hate that person. Actually, as an atheist, i hope I'm wrong. If I'm correct and there is no god, spirits, reincarnations, or other stuff like that then that means ask this trouble and time I've spent is actually useless.

A superior version of this "joke" has already been made. Thanks for playing.

"Into people" the Catholic Church has a lot to answer for.
