i see people say "religion ruins everything" so that would point to the organizations and scriptures
i also see people say "youre dumb if you believe in god"
so, what do people hate? or at least, what do people have the most issue with?
My main concern is the following: how do theists, or practitioners of religion for that matter, separate their personal truths from the truth of their faith? Do they ultimately project their truth onto their faith? In addition, can they honestly say that what they believe is the truth of their deity and not the subjective truths of other people, which have been passed down to them and reinforced through various means of socialization and conditioning?
