My experience with baptists is that they are among the hardcore ones, along with Pentecostals, and also Lutherans, in my neighborhood at the time, that's where the freaky evangelicals dwelt.

Wow, can't even relate to what you're saying - good luck with that though
I think there is definitely a big difference between romantic love and transcendent spiritual love. That's the love I'm referring to (the latter one).
I don't think capitalism/markets and love go together at all. Like, if you saw someone get injured and ran to help, you wouldn't ask them for a payment up front before you help them, etc.

I haven't been to a church in decades so I'm incredulous over their transition to radicalizing people into fascism. I grew up on liberal leftie Jesus, not this new Hitler version they're promoting now. Though I can see elements of the monotheism to fascism pipeline were in there.. now weaponized.

I'm definitely aligned with love as the most powerful force, it's the intolerance/paranoia and condemnation/othering of outsiders (non-believers) that I find to be the biggest problem with them.

I'm frustrated that churches seem to be the easiest/only source of community for most people... I wish there was a better alternative...

Yes, christianity is very much about totally disempowering you and insisting that you must utterly doubt and distrust yourself.

The only other options people hear about are 'join a club.' Interesting clubs aren't that easy to find. Hanging out at the local pub has obvious downsides, though I guess it sorta works in some countries.
We need more ways for people to casually meet others that aren't trying to manipulate you or program you with religious doctrine...

I see this as quite a problem in the US. The default place a lonely person has to go is usually a church - where you can expect a modicum, possibly even a seeming profusion, of welcome. This is their hook. They provide automatic acceptance - of sorts.
This is also how the right wing fascist regime convinced people to let Trump take over the country - propaganda through the churches.

I also know smart capable people who acknowledge that christianity is mostly b.s., but they still go to church, because that's what they have always done, it's what all their friends do. Their whole social life is built around it.
They cling to it because they can't bear to think of life without it. It's the 'cornerstone', literally. They even refer to it that way in some churches.

2026-05-08 00:09:49 GMT

This is why people cling to it.
It's the most fundamental jenga block of our culture - for 20 centuries now.
Take that away and find out about all the problems it was patching for people this whole time.
No one wants to look at it. I'll keep my lucky rabbit foot, thank you very much.
We need that comforting narrative too, for meaning in life. Take that narrative away and it's just brutal nature and lots of ways for nihilism to manifest.

The rest of us dumb ugly losers need *something* to give us a bit of hope.
Religion is like this little imaginary lucky rabbit foot that you carry around in your pocket and gives you some confidence to carry on and believe something better is possible in a way that you could not justify through the usual material means.

What to do about religion though?
All the atheists I knew in life could effortlessly dismiss religion because they didn't need it. I.e. they were good looking, smart, rich or had some other advantages going for them.

Is there a Monotheism to Fascism pipeline?
I think we're seeing the answer in realtime right now.

Watch, he'll pull the tariffs once the market can go no lower, there'll be a bunch of vultures waiting who will buy it up cheap, then wash, rinse repeat.
I have a theory he's going to try to oscillate the market so much that it looks like his signature.

Both Trump and Musk openly admit how easy it would be to tank the US economy. Once the dollar is devalued, they will pump DogeCoin or TrumpCoin to make it look more valuable, then once everybody jumps into the economic frog-in-pot-boiler, the rugpull is inevitable: cue Putin laughter.

I'm half expecting them to tank the economy then force everyone to use TrumpCoin as the national currency and then rugpull everyone.

When I read about these "water into wine" pneumatic vessels designed by Heron of Alexandria (who lived around the time of Jesus) it became clear to me that Jesus was a magician and not a divine being.
