A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics
- 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Re judgement: I wasn’t the one saying atheists are ignorant, materialistic, capitalistic people whose reality revolves around money.
And yeah, I take offense to someone calling me those things when they don’t know me from Adam. Matthew 7 - judge not buddy.
I try to live a life that prioritizes kindness, love, service, and charity to my fellow humans. I’m totally fine if you want to call BS on that. Feel free to say I’m a selfish money grubbing dolt, but I ask that you at least get to know me first before you start casting aspersions.
You're the one that attached judgments to the words ignorant, materialistic, and capitalistic.
lol. Ok.
I hope you have a great day. Wishing you happiness and health.
Ignorance means spiritual ignorance. There's no fault or judgement. It's the default state of man.
Materialistic mean the belief that all phenomena in the universe can be explained by material and mechanical means.
Capitalistic means that capital or earthly power is important and useful to wield.
You evidently only know the common uses of these words, and have attached negative personal values to all of them.
