I’m curious how much of the traffic here is people with religious beliefs.

There’s no rule against it. I just want to understand better. I’m not interested in debating or criticizing anyone’s choice to visit the comm or practice religion.

My questions:

  • Do you practice or otherwise hold some sort of faith? What kind? Is there a comm for it?

  • What are your thoughts on this (c/Atheism) comm? Do you visit because threads appear on your front page, or do you subscribe/visit intentionally? Why do you click on the topics / what kinds of topics do you click on?

  • Do you comment when you read threads here, or are you more of a lurker?

  • Is there anything you would like to express to the members of this community?

Thank you in advance for any responses.

      I would say this is more like going on a vegan board that appears to be interacted with by a large number of non-vegans, and asking the non-vegans about what they get out of visiting the board.

      I hope you’ll forgive my curiosity.

      It’s more like going on the vegan board and asking if anybody likes Impossible or Beyond burgers. You can have burgers without the animal, and you can have religions without gods.

        I was trying to keep the post simple so I didn’t include this. Sorry for being reductionist, you’re right and thank you for bringing it up.

          You’re good. I understood the question. Since I have you, I am atheist but I take stuff from Buddhism, Shintoism, and combine them with universal connectedness. I believe we are connected to all things past, current, and future. That’s deeply meaningful to me.
