Are you referring to a time which is literally referred to as "the infancy of civilization"? Also, if you examine traditions and rituals of primitive people, it's extremely clear they were mentally childish. Many different groups believed anything that had even a passing resemblance were somehow linked, thus, if a society fished with fishing nets, while the men were out fishing the women weren't allowed to knit or tie knots at home for fear it would cause the nets of the men to tangle. This type of superstition was basically universal among primitive societies. Similarly, the leader of chieftain was often believed to have magic powers and be connected with nature, some cultures took this so far that the leader was not allowed to ever touch the ground, and had to be carried everywhere or to walk on special mats for fear that, were he to touch the ground with his bare feet, it would cause a calamity in nature. How are we to view grown adults who literally carry strong taboos which boil down to "the floor is lava"? Perpetual children with the group endorsement of like minded perpetual children.

The mental gymnastics required by religion are always astonishing. People actually warp their whole being into a pretzel to try and make it work. Sad.

The theistic worldview is retarded on it's face. The problem of evil excludes the possibility of a loving God.

>AI is going to show that ancient human delusions about a father figure in the sky who is also capricious and short sighted and cruel must exist through sheer logic
Theists are literally braindead

Or it could be that the premise of an all powerful God who gets mad at the stuff that happens in his creation is patently retarded

Religious faith is the negation of reason.

"God" is not waiting at the bottom of the glass. The most you can say is "forces beyond your comprehension" are, not ancient superstitions like Christcucks want to believe

Jews, Christians and Muslims get the rope.

>I have given him regency of my throne while I learn the land and he has betrayed me again, how could this happen to me?

The story is well written, it is arguably Moorplots best work in my opinion.

Probably didn't know that, also that blue is associated with the Judaic concept of divinity or Godhead.

Religion is a tool to cope with mortality, and people like Bacon are such cowards that they'll take any cope and dive headlong into it based on their all consuming fear of death. It's like a child believing in Santa Clause because Christmas is a better experience when you do. Grown men should be above this kind of pretend play.

Why is it more believable for a fully sentient, omnipotent and powerful being to form out of nothing than it is for an almost inert, slightly warm amount of matter that lacks sentience in almost all aspects to form from nothing?

The real issue is that religion, in all it's forms, has always been unfit for purpose. What is needed is an overarching structure that people can reasonably and willingly buy into that will benefit the entire group. Religion has always and forever clung to the most braindead retarded doctrines you could imagine and thereby poison the potential utility they might have had.

Christcuck beliefs are so astronomically retarded they don't even deserve "anything of substance", only mockery
