#but again if you’re my friend im sorry for the misunderstanding or clash of values

[actualtoad]

My favorite kind of communities are the ones where you get together and try to ruin the lives lf anyone not in your communities, so fuck yeah religion is awesome.

i can’t tell if this is like. genuine or not. if this is a friend of mine then im sorry if im misinterpreting? but like what im trying to say is that belief in a higher power isn’t a ridiculous stance that shows nothing but the failure of human evolution. im not trying to say everybody should be religious and im also literally not religious? im just trying to say that as a form of community religion can be good as long as you’re not being an asshole evangelical which i have SO much experience with for the record. my mom is from a tiny poor village in alaska where random people would show up and try to make them mormon catholic methodist whatever the hell they thought was the best for people who already had a dang culture and didn’t need this stupid white people culture to get formed on top of it. im not looking for anyone to replace other peoples beliefs with their own. im just trying to say that religion isn’t just for stupid evangelical white people. and that more religions exist than just christianity and that people bonding over shared beliefs can be a good thing. not trying to be in support of the church as a corporation? or whatever might be the problem here. i would like to make it clear that i have been personally victimized by religion. just trying to say that it’s not a freak of nature or evolutionary mistake

#anyway if this is a joke or something im sorry #it’s like 9 AM i made the post you’re talking about pretty much immediately after waking up #so just. idk #the thing is i have like ten followers on this blog like literally ten #so whoever this is is probably my friend #im sorry if you misunderstood me and im really not trying to cause problems #just talking about my dumb book while i try to finish it before the school day ends #and ​if you aren’t familiar with my blog it’s literally just me talking to approximately ten people #about random stuff. and not trying to present myself as an authority on anything #however i do just want to say that demonizing religion is. here’s the kicker. it’s bad for marginalized communities #racist white people use demonizing of religion to hate muslims and jews. so we can chill about thinking of the entire construct as harmful #because it’s not. people can do religion badly but not everybody does. so. please acknowledge that #anyway im leaving for my next class in a few. so here i go #but again if you’re my friend im sorry for the misunderstanding or clash of values #delete later #it’s funny how this is the first ask i’ve gotten in like. months probably. aside from friends checking in #im really not a blog blog. if you’re somebody who knows me i have literally ten followers im not an actual blog #if this is the friend i think it might be though. im sorry for the misunderstanding and you can lmk off anon if there’s anything else #like im open to discussion im just bad at doing it publicly. sorry for making you uncomfortable #once again if this is a joke i am so so sorry i just can’t read tone at all. but yeah. almost out of class i’ll see you guys later
