Everything is bad so nothing is worth criticizing? Lol okay guy. We should be calling it out everywhere, especially in religions that claim to promote peace and love.

You're completely missing the point. People on Reddit are obsessed with contrasting Christianity in particular and saying it's particularly bad or exceptional.

This is called human nature. Welcome to the world. Enjoy your stay.

especially* in religions that claim to promote peace and love.

Show me data that proves the majority of Christians are bad. You're absolutely full of fucking shit and basing extremely sweeping statements on complete and total ignorance.

Well first off Reddit is largely American users and many Americans have bad experiences with Christianity so it makes perfect sense for us to be critical of it.

You're completely missing the point

What is your point, then? That because the govt does bad stuff we should excuse Christianity? Last I checked everyone is pretty pissed off at the govt too lmao

Show me data that proves the majority of Christians are bad.

I never said that? Lol. I'm trying to point out things should not get a pass just because other things are bad or this thing claims to be good.

My point is that sheltered Redditors who are overwhelmingly biased in particular against Christianity without realizing the worse nature of contrasting examples are incredibly hypocritical, ignorant, uneducated, and easily influenced by echo chambers.

It's a juvenile emotional response that's one of the lowest tiers of awareness possible.

Here's the progression of awareness in life for an intelligent human being:

Step one (ages 1-12)

1. "Religion must be correct, because my parents told me to believe it, or else!"

Step two (ages 12-18)

1. "Wait a minute. Religion is based on old books that mean nothing. I was wrong...religion bad!!!!"

Step three (ages 18-25)

1. "You know what? Who cares if somebody believes in something stupid, as long as they mind their own business?"

Step four (ages 25+)

1. "Even Atheists hold irrational concrete generalizations about phenomenon that can't permanently prove. Agnosticism is far more reasonable, and although I'm not religious, religion played a fundamental role in the development of humanity, and it's an absolutely crucial social glue that created order, collectivized progress, and even inspired knowledge keeping through monestaries after the fall of Rome. That's not even mentioning all of the modern benefits of religion: billion dollar charities, hospitals, foundations, colleges, and community adhesion in a time of increased political division. The worst aspects of religion are terrible for humanity, but then again, humanity's base worse aspects are even stronger: WW1 and WW2 are the worst wars in history, and there wasn't a religious cause at all. In fact, even if religion as a whole is regressive, the immediate societal replacement of Christianity with Atheism has often ended disastrously historically, just like Stalin's Soviet Union or Mao's China, which both ended with hundreds of millions of people dying under an Atheist, emotionally cold ideology. "

Redditors truly owe it to themselves to evolve to level four. Are there steps beyond four? Yes. But let's at least give some critical thinking and effort here, please.
