A thing about religious (and other) people and the illusion of free will

(November 12, 2023 at 4:56 pm)The Grand Nudger Wrote: I think we have to allow that it comes from good things too.  The real fucked up bit about "god" isn't the charlatans or the theocrats who attempt to control or horde power.  It's the people who want good things but for the choice of their implement never end up producing anything but misery.

Shitty people set out to to bad shit is one thing.  Normal people set out to do decent shit and arrive at genocide...another.

Yeah, I was focusing on the bad parts for some reason. That said, you are right.

Either way, though, beliefs about God and things about religion do tend to be nonsensical or just...heavily flawed. Maybe not all things, of course, but like stuff that is in the bible and all, there are some contradictions here and there, right?
