What is your general attitude towards those who believe in religion whether they are jewish, Muslim, Christian etc etc.

Do you get on well with any religious friends and neighbours?

Have you ever thought of believing in a religion at some point?

If you do not like the faiths, why?

If you DO, also why? Does this come from your family? Maybe something went bad during your life?

I get that Lemmy might have the same stereotype in Reddit that there are loads of atheists, but there's a good reason why despite criticism of religion, it is still here.

P.S. I am not religious or anti religious in any fashion, I am agnostic.

Not beliefs, just religions

All of these are philosophy not monotheism

[-] TheGalacticVoid@lemm.ee 2 points 1 week ago

All the examples I provided are religions.

Philosophy is not religion, your answer speaks volumes

[-] TheGalacticVoid@lemm.ee 0 points 1 week ago

Your ignorance is genuinely louder. All of those are religions, and any credible source you find will agree with me.

Tell me, who is god/deity in Buddhism? https://www.history.com/topics/religion/buddhism Oh look no deity https://www.britannica.com/topic/Sikhism No deity there either https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hinduism Also No deity

Coming next, But those aren’t real sources

Philosophy versus Religion

Now I’m done wasting time on you.

"...scholars consider Buddhism one of the major world religions."

"Sikhism, [a] religion and philosophy..."

"Hinduism (/ˈhɪnduˌɪzəm/)[1][2] is an Indian religion or dharma..."

Your own sources say that all 3 are religions.

They say they are philosophies, answer the question. Who is their deity ? A spiritual god? Or a physical person?
