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.

    See lots of post here fom all and local feed. I Like some of your memes. I used to be a hardcore scientific determinist type athiest. The kind who bought into a fully physical model of the world and anything unfalsifiable was discarded.

    I have come around to being more spiritual since then due to very personal subjective experiences I’ve had through psychedelics. I’m very grateful for the opportunity I had to open my mind to the more mystical and personable aspects of reality. I still have my criticisms of traditional religion and blind faith though which is something atheist and I can usually agree on.

    I like the memes here, but tend to lurk. I dont think my differing ideas on the nature of reality and god and whatever would be appreciated, this is a safe space for people who are in suffocatingly oppresive religious enviroments to vent, not a fourm to debate philosophy, so I keep my mouth shut.
