Because I think religion is fundamental to me including the one I have now that really helps me out and gives me a purpose in life too.
I can tell people here hate what I just said, but I also don’t follow the news anymore, obey my parents, and don’t observe politics anywhere.
All I read is the Bible and it is good enough.
No one understands what your first sentence says because it's an empty platitude.
The fact that religion is "fundamental" to you really helps you out? Care to actually elaborate with specific examples because that's literally an empty phrase.
I find that most people use religion to absolve themselves of responsibility and make themselves feel superior to "lessers" (aka non believers).
