Some religions are toxic while some others are very peaceful.
ALL religions can be toxic or very peaceful. It is dependent on the zeal of the practitioners.
Please elaborate.
Nope
Some other people are saying the exact same thing still I'll be cyberbullied I know that.
I also know why
I promise you I won't cyber bully you! You can text me in private too if you want.
Sure!
Fundamentalists of ALL religions are The Most Intolerant Racists & Xenophobes! MILLIONS have died in vain due to their immorality, injustice and outright lies! ALL genocides in the name of some "superior than thou" religion!
Pure B***Sh! t!
I recommend you watch Apostate Prophet for more information.
You should really watch apostate prophet @Guardian45
A better question is, who the hell wanted everyone to use the word toxic and how did they do it?
Christian spirituality is not toxic. Too much "religiosity with no spirituality" is.
Extremely. It's been used to cause more harm than good. People use it to guilt people into things they may not want to do, or scare them into believing. Believe what you want, but when your beliefs start hurting others, it's no longer a good thing.
can be. I feel thats a very general question. Many factors that can determine that. It's not a yes or no. Could you be more specific?
Honestly yes but it's a good thing I recently experienced the impossible which told me all I needed to know tbh.
Yeah lol. Look what it did to those third world countries. Thanks to religion we have terrorist. THANK YOU RELIGION
No, it's just some individuals.
Much like how a gun is argued to not be the problem, but some people wielding them.
Nope!
Unless wrong things are taught or spread from religion...
Some people turn it into something toxic. Not sure if the religion is to blame for that.
No. Only those who are narcissistic about it are toxic. Even atheism can be toxic
No, it built this civilisation, this generation takes for granted.
Some are toxic, but that is the result not of its religiosity but bad practices
Some religions are some aren't.. and some aren't but people use them for their own benefits so they seem toxic
You made it to featured cause you asked a very polarizing question I think.
Also yes I can be if someone leads it into a bad direction.
Yes religion is toxic and most of the world are actualy atheists guess why? Bec they can be wtv religion but they dont follow its rules which are strict
Ofcourse I think that.
It destroys relationship, friendship and more over countries
Uh depends I mean if your religion is making hate others then I guess so
No! Those who think religion is toxic are actually the ones who are toxic 😂
Religion is not needed, the leader of it use religion for their own targets not to find the truth.
Religions don't need a leader. It's simply a relationship between man and God. Yes when a religion has a leader, then it becomes an institution and that can be used for an agenda.
In toxicology, every substance has a lethal dose. It just depends how it's used.
We've just had three atheist mass shooters and you're asking if religion is toxic. Atheism is toxic.
All religions suck and are stupid in my opinion except the glorious gospel of the lord Jesus Christ.
Sorry that just sounds really close minded.
@Zodiac10: I know. The of way of Jesus and salvation is narrow.
That doesn't make sense
at least to me.
Absolutely. It creates the concept of sin, then also creates the antidote to sin. Anything that cyclical has devious intent
No, I believe if everyone followed Jesus's commandment to love everyone and to love your enemies, there would be no crime, no wars and no social problems.
It teaches good morals with fake stories and church is boring
Yes it is, it only leads do fights hatred without being of any practical use.
Its all in how you react then behave. Atheists should be allowed to have free speach.. Your going to burn.. In afterlife.. Losers..
Take a look around this forum, especially at some of the posts from the rabid christian members. You'll see it's a big fat yes.
☠<- this one is it has a flippin skull for a pic so its op toxic XD
"Religion" comes from man this it is evil, god doesn't even like it, read your bible
It's fake and made up and responsible of millions and millions of deaths and wars.
Extremely Toxic
It only divides all humankind with scriptures that were meant for all people.
religion is a global poison we all need to abandon it. Richard Dawkins wrote a book about this.
No.
But people who distort it, can make it toxic.
No. Atheists are toxic
Well said
would you like to elaborate? I don't believe not comforting to any religious standards is toxic in any way
Because they’re disrespectful, rude and have no morals.
I don't think having no morals is toxic, and not all atheists are rude and disrespectful. also, you can have morals without religion I just don't personally.
So those are my reasons. Atheists are toxic
I guess you can stand by that, just hope you aren't also mixing agnosticism in with atheism
And calling atheists toxic isn't rude or disrespectful? I smell irony.
Now this is quite rude. Not a lot of Atheist go around spanking every religious person we encounter. Matter of fact. Fuck morals, common morality is all we need. With morals your instructed with certain beliefs and must obliged by like some puppet. With common sense morality. You use your head and distinct from whats right to wrong.
And not to be bias. Its quite useless when I see a religious and atheists argue with one another. One or the other started it and both sides can easily start the debate of said argument. And to be quite frank, I seen a lot of toxic religious people on here or anywhere and vice-versa for atheists. Its the person that makes it toxic. Not the group.
@thonglover90 Nope it isn’t because that’s what they are.
@Soporific-san Proved my point when you said F morality. I think atheists are toxic and nothing will change my mind.
Wouldn't you say you're being quite toxic yourself right now? It's quite a statement for you to put a group of people, people you have never met to label them all as 'toxic'.
A huge generalisation on your part. You're a walking contradiction, darling.
@thonglover90 Nope! I don’t care to associate with them nor do I care about their lives. Atheists on the other hand try to insult religious people just for the kick out so they can feel better about themselves. That’s toxic behavior.
... But you're doing exact same thing?
@thonglover90 Nope! I answered this question and you started an argument with me as usual can be expected with an atheist. Proved my point once again.
I never started an argument. I was just curious to know if you felt you were being toxic towards atheists? I actually haven't said anything untoward about religion. I'm only asking questions.
I bet you didn't read the rest of what I said. I mentioned something called common sense morality. It exist and is a thing.
@Soporific-san Something atheists made up. Homosexuality, porn and prostitution. I don’t consider those moral but lots of atheists do.
religion is something Christian's made up as well, as far as we're concerned
Yes yaboiziek.
This conversation proves your question.
*answers
the majority here sure think religion is toxic, and 100+ people provided their opinions
I couldn’t care less about atheists or their opinions.
Atheist didn't make it, its just common sense. by the way, not a atheist. You probably won't believe me. You should, cause you believe in something greater than nothingness. though, I wouldn't care. I came in here not being biased. Said both sides can be toxic. I didn't come here to start a argument but give my opinion to your opinion. Which was meaningless, when there's a bigot just flat ironing whatever anyone says.
Oh, don't mix up atheist with other shit. They have a absent belief in god/gods. Just shows how much toxicity you are without a clear definition of atheism. Going around calling them toxic without a good valid reason. Porn, drugs, homosexuality or anything you think and pinned against atheist, is clearly wrong. That's just human made shit, comes from greed, porn/prostitution. Someone makes the real money from them. He/she owes someone and needs to make that money to pay that someone. Homosexuality not even that bad to throw out there. You're just a terrible person with a terrible mindset.
no but religious zealots can be.
Inherently? No. Depends on the people involved.
Yes full of toxic people for sure.
No it's a way of life
I personally think religion is just an assorted list of beliefs and morals for a group of people, not a way I life
That's not true at all
religion can only affect the way you live if you let it affect the way think. that's why I believe that religion is just a way of thinking, not being
once again it's not true
you believe someone is just born into believing a certain religion then?
You don't know what you're talking about son
you haven't answered my question, therefore that statement isn't a valid argument in any circumstance
You're confused boy I told you it's a way of life and that's where I stand you're just being controversial is all on here
you're half right. I'm not confused on anything, I know where I stand and I know where I'm headed. I am definitely being controversial though, that's basically a hobby of mine
You're only a 15 year old boy you have no idea what you're talking about. I'm going to leave it at that I suggest you go to church and learn something
I've been to church, and was raised as a Christian by my mother who also took my 4 step siblings out of public school to homeschool them with Christianity but now I realize I am far too incapable of putting in the work to worship a God I'm not positive even exists. also age shouldn't be a factor in this, saying that I'm "too young" is you just being a basic boomer
You're too young because you haven't given God a chance how could you possibly realize everything at the age of fifteen there's no way God does exist he his real
you're obviously so intelligent and knowing in the ways of the Lord so tell me, why are kids starving to death every day all around the world of god "loves everyone"
Everything in life happens for a reason trials and tribulations in life. If people are faithful and believe then things get better
why can't I see God? I haven't seen a unicorn, does that mean that they still exist?
It's about faith and it has nothing to do with unicorns.
what if I have faith in unicorns being real? does that make it real just because I have faith?
Don't ask silly questions. How else do you think we got here and we're made so perfectly why is the earth so perfect for us to live on. The Bible states the facts what happened.
Read your Holy Bible. So basically you are trying to keep me on the sign all day to aggravate me and it's not working. You have admitted to me that you like controversy, let me ask you do you do the same thing at school argue with your teachers and your classmates all day long or just on the internet?
I love making people defend and question their beliefs, it's what I enjoy. I'm still adamant on any given god a complete figment of all Christians' imaginations and would rather die than be converted without physical, scientific, unfalsifiable proof
God is real you just like being controversial you're just looking for an argument and you're not going to get one. I'm not going to play your online little games have a nice day kid. I hope that you can get your life together and be a good Christian
i guess you wouldn't understand unless you were my age in this era, where the government is stunting the progress of nuclear plants in place of renewable energy which is only worsening our csrbon footprint and suicide rates among teens are at their highest
I was your age once I understand everything in the world.
I'll be back later tonight
trust me, you dont. you can't understand what its like to have an ipad when you're 10 years old. you dont understand what its like to grow up having the entire internet at your disposal when you're too young to even count. don't try to relate to a kid these days if you aren't one because it's almost not possible
That means nothing get out in life and do something play a sport at school make a life for yourself. Instead of being an Internet
Controversial troll. All you talk is rubbish. Like I said before you have no idea what you're talking about go to church and learn something and be consistent and read the Holy Bible. Don't sit on here and argue with people for no reason and talk rubbish. Get yourself together
for 1 I do play sports, but school hasn't even started yet. 2 I'm not an internet troll, I'm not trolling anyone, just looking for opinions. I'm not here for "no reason" I'm here because I've never been exposed to any other community besides my town of 400 people with nowhere to go and I'm genuinely interested in people's opinion on the topic
Yeah... It kind of gave reason people to divide
Only when placed into the wrong hands.
I think people can definitely make it toxic.
I agree, but certain ideologies I believe can be detrimental to someone's, such as Islamic terrorism and suicide bombings.
Bombs and suicide will always be detrimental, not just in terms of religion.
of course, but they do have direct links to religious views
“if anyone killed a person not in retaliation of murder, or (and) to spread mischief in the land – it would be as if he killed all mankind, and if anyone saved a life, it would be as if he saved the life of all mankind.” – Quran 5:32
Don’t talk about things you lack knowledge on.
Religion is one way to give your life purpose.
the illusion of it, at least
A person's mentality is more toxic than anything.
Religion is totally lame and for dorks.
It can be yeah.
The ones with God's yes
It can be
All but Christianity.
Yeah, I'm an atheist.
All of them are just a scam to divide people apart
Only if it's done right!
Yes, it poisons minds and segregates people.
I don't think so. It depends on the person.
Depends on who uses it
At times, highly!
God is not religion religion is created by men
Yes destroy it
Some. Not all.
