If you distrust someone because of their religious beliefs, you’re probably a bad person.

Wait… why? Why is it bad to distrust someone who believes in an invisible friend who grants wishes well into their 30s?

You can trust someone without expecting pure rationality from them

Its worth nothing that most of these people were indoctrinated into their beliefs since they were born, and many of them attend church weekly to reaffirm their beliefs. They were raised surrounded by christians, were told christianity is true, think that if you question god you will be consciously tortured for eternity. They’re not just a bunch of idiots.

  True, if they’re young. At some point you are accountable for the contents of your own brain.
  
  I’m not saying it’s easy. I’m not saying it’s safe. I am saying the unexamined life is not worth living.

That’s why a friend of mine is a 37 y/o virgin. 3 more years and he can cut out the middle man.

  You need to tweak your bot. It’s replying to the wrong thread with unrelated nonsense.

  Are the conflating the stock market with god? Are you stupid? The stock market is not a “thing” in the same way that math is not a “thing”. God, or at the very least the christian god, is an actual being that supposedly exists and wants everyone to know it.
  
  They’re not even remotely related.

    The stock market certainly feels like those archaic gods that demand sacrifices (working people’s sweat and blood) every other day while behaving in “mysterious ways”
