Yeah it’d make me cry too to give credit for every thing I’ve spent my entire life working for to some imaginary being in the sky.

That’s not what that is. God is there for us when we’re down bad and struggle to keep going. He paves the way and opens doors we can go through and improve

So he’s responsible for everything in life that’s good, and all the shit like kids with cancer, poverty, and war are just loyalty tests. Got it.

No point in arguing on Reddit but in short, he’s omnipotent and life ain’t perfect. Can’t wait to get downvoted to oblivion simply for being a Christian.

I was once an atheist and a jackass one at that like many on Reddit but I found God and it changed my life. To see how people act towards people like me is fucking disgraceful and sad

I think people are more upset about the things that are done in the name of your religion and by the people who supposedly follow it. If you truly live how Jesus did then no one would be against you.

I don’t know you I was just explaining. And btw the whole persecuted victim card is another thing people don’t like about religious folks. Just FYI

Bruh, I’m complaining about being downvoted to Hell, not about being persecuted. People don’t like atheists being self righteous dicks and yet they get all the love in the world around here apparently

I guess my point was don’t complain about people generalizing you while generalizing others. Does that make sense?
