"my religion forbids me from talking to someone who has ice cream unless i also have ice cream, so shut your fucking mouth."

[–] Khrux@ttrpg.network 9 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I do have an amount of pity for people with extreme religious views. I remember talking to an atheist friends extremely religious mother who was trying to come to to terms with the fact her daughter was going to go to hell one day.

Imagine walking through the park and seeing someone about to eat an ice cream that you know has a powerful psychoactive substance in that will kick in after few years that tricks the persons brain into believing they're being tortured until their brain turns to mush.

I absolutely don't agree with people spreading their religious doctrine, especially when unwelcome, but many of those people could be considered victims to that choice and don't deserve to be antagonised.

All religions are cults in one way or the other, the followers and believers are all victims of their religion and those running their particular sect, but just like we see in other cultic situations the victims often become abusers themselves and many reach sunk cost fallacy levels where they refuse to believe they were duped because of how much time and energy the devoted to a lie. It’s tragic and horrifying

That's all well and good, but now this guy is calling the cops on you.

uno reverse "hello police? there's a creepy old man in the park harassing people and i'm afraid he's after children"

Ask Alan Turing what happens when you call the cops in a country that hates you.
