Religion is a coping mechanism for humans to justify their immoral and unpredictable actions - Thoughts on atheism
Religion is a coping mechanism for those who can’t handle the reality of the world they need to face. (atleast that’s my opinion in this point of time) - june 2026 | and i have been questioning this since a long long long time (years) + Im content and don’t need a god to guide MY morality. BECAUSE how can war, death, disease, hunger, animal cruelty, poverty, torture, climate change exist so imperfectly as compared to gods “morality standards”. God is built to describe the unknowns because humans always want an answer for everything, so they say “leave it in gods hands”, BUT WHAT ARE U LEAVING IN GODS HANDS??
I believe there’s a higher power by praying to the universe somehow because u manifest that power into ur life, but god is a man made fictional character to define humans unpredictable ways of life. Atheism for people is difficult, because it’s living on your own basis and drive , when u have some made up faith to believe in, it just feeds into your delusions to make life easier and to prove ur shitty actions. I find Islam & Christianity extremist religions, because they will always convince you to convert, but buddhism, hinduism + more, can still somewhat pass off and maybe be respected for it’s ideology’s, even though it was humans who formed them.
\++ some more ranting
we are SO SO SO greedy & not only within other beings and species, WITHIN our own selves too, that’s why wars exist, crime occurs, because everyone has a ambition to kill or die, in a word where these are all man made concepts: marriage, governance, institutions, security, our own human hidden complexities societal standards. And religion and god too. I read this saying “ Man is the most insane species. He worships an invisible god and destroys a visible nature. Unaware that the nature he’s destroying is of the god he worships “ This basically sums up on how humans think as such “ we do not see things as they are, we only see things as WE are.” and that also summarises humans greed, BECAUSE they do not have dominance over this earth, this nature we CO EXIST WITH, HOW CAN WE BE SO CRUEL AND UNFAIR TO THE ANIMALS AROUND US, AND NOT ONLY ANIMALS, OUR OWN COMMUNITY OF HUMANS WHO SIT HOMELESS OR IN WAR ZONES.. Circuses, zoos, marine shows, experiments, testing — ALL OF this is exploitation for our own HUMAN GREED. So my one true wish and i genuinely think at this moment of time, my purpose- is to help all animals live the world as their own & help marginalised communities who live a life of sorrow for situations they were born in (people will say they are like tha because of past life’s karma, but if no one helps now, NOTHING changes, society continues to work in a loop, governments get worse, and societal standards become impossible).. Dogs getting mistreated is something i can not bare, and seeing it happen is something i wont sit here and tolerate. AND I DONT UNDERSTAND people who treat animals like shit and then WORSHIP a god, if the god is real and created the world, DOGS ARE HIS CREATION TOO, but NO ONE WILL RESPECT THAT.
PS just to clarify: The higher power I believe in isn’t separate from me, it comes from me. It’s the faith I have in myself to shape my experiences, the trust I extend to the universe because I’m the one directing it. Manifestation isn’t asking something greater to intervene, it’s recognizing that the force doing the work is you not some external hand on your shoulder labelled as “god”. #religion source
