No, not convincing at all. That’s why they go after children with this bs at the youngest age possible. It was fucking terrifying when I was around 11 or so and started accepting that I didn’t believe anything they told me at church.
Without indoctrination religion wouldn’t go away completely, but it would be reduced to small random cults, that everyone wouid laugh at and avoid like the plague.
Considering how many are against vaccines for COVID-19, MMR and HPV, it may not avoiding them like the plague but because of.
Pedant's note
I am aware that those are not the plague.
Yep. I tried harder and harder to convince myself I believed so that I wouldn’t burn in hell for eternity if I died. I wonder why I have anxiety? I mean it’s totally healthy to be a literal child and trying to gaslight yourself into believing in something that makes no sense so you won’t be tortured for eternity, right?
Careful, non-believers. Don’t want to be branded a hair-etic.
In the name of the father, the son and the wooly spirit.
Can’t be branded a hairetic if I just don’t believe…. That would be a balding lost-one.
For a moment, I thought this was a cryptid instance and briefly wondered what level of crazy believes that Bigfoot will put you in the ground if you don’t believe in him.
it is, and she WILL put you in the ground.
There’s a cryptid instance?!
I like this version of bigfoot who hunt and mauls doubters.
That’s wothy of a movie
No, just cringey memes.
Heretic. Nessie of the Loch Ness is the one true God.
I got a buddy whose wicked into Bigfoot, says things like Bigfoot is telepathic, and other shit I don’t believe.
The greatest trick the Bigfoot ever pulled was convincing the world he doesn’t exist.

Where’s Bigfoot’s book
Wait, but do we have a novel book that PROVES he’s real and sent his son to die for humankind sins??? Do we??!!!
I don’t believe in bigfoot, but if there was any cryptid that did exist, it’s gotta be that one. It’s the most boring, most mundane, most realistic cryptid. I mean… It’s just an ape of some kind. An ape we haven’t yet discovered, but nothing super fantastical either.
Hmm… 🤔
I wonder if some religious people use the same logic to choose which God they believe in. Cuz I mean, why would you not want to believe in Greek or Roman gods? They were cooler. Christian God, even if it exists, is kinda lame compared to other gods. 🤷🏻♂️
Im pretty sure Roko’s Basilisk is the modern take on Damnation Jesus.
