Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

I'm not sure where all the allusions to religion come from, or why you're so against a dream of a world where everyone is free from work and most suffering. Trying to fix the world now is admirable, and one way to do that is to work on long term solutions such as working on automation technology.
It's not faith to extrapolate that the advances we've made in automation so far are likely to extend to eventually almost all forms of work being automated. It's not faith, because I still admit the possibility that it may not happen. But imagining it happening, wanting it to happen, and trying to work on making it happen seems nothing but positive to me. And it's still not chauvinism, to refer to the earlier point. Do you still believe that, or have I managed to convince you of that point, at least?
When I became atheist, I figured “if God doesn’t exist, we’ll have to make heaven ourselves.”
And I believe we’ll do it, given enough time (probably hundreds/thousands of years).
