RULES
- Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
- Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
- Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
- Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world
- Keep it clean and SFW
- No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc.

No. It's a scam created by humans to control the behavior of other humans. And to steal their $$ with false hopes of a nonexistent "paradise".
I find it mind boggling that people still get indoctrinated into the Cults. It's sad and pathetic.
Do you think that religion as a whole is unproductive/useless? Maybe even borderline harmful?
Not the OP, but I believe religion, while having some positive aspects, is overall harmful. Lies always are.
Very harmful. Full of BS. Countless millions murdered in the name of religion. Trillions $$ stolen from people's pockets. And more Trillions $$ in slave labor, either true slaves or fools that have volunteered many hours of their time.
Big religion should not be treated any differently than the truly rotten Cults .
