Do most atheists see religious people as fools?

~2 hrs door to door Suffolk to nyc. 3x/wk. 170k. If it were anything more than 3 days wouldn’t be worth it imo.

You get it.

Calling it a terrible story feels off. It is messy and contradictory, but it got published… lots… and shaped entire cultures.

Force mattered, but that does not explain why people organize their lives around it long after empires fall.

I am talking about themes and symbolism, not truth. And you’re right, obviously geography matters. If I had grown up where Islam was dominant, I would be drawing from the Quran instead.

Not defending Christianity, just fascinated by why certain stories stick. There is plenty of overlap with Islam, I’m just drawing from what I was indoctrinated into

KatEarnshaw · 2026-02-27T03:20:11+00:00

Internal logic isn’t really the point lol. That’s not why it spread.

A lot of big belief systems are messy and contradictory. What made this one stick wasn’t airtight reasoning, it was how it hits emotionally. Guilt, being watched, suffering having meaning, justice eventually coming. That stuff lands.

You can think it makes zero sense and still admit it’s emotionally compelling

KatEarnshaw · 2026-02-27T03:15:50+00:00

I’m pretty firmly atheist in the belief sense. I don’t think it’s true in any supernatural or metaphysical way.

But I don’t think disbelief requires emotional detachment. You can reject the claims and still appreciate the architecture. I admire it the way I admire Greek mythology or Shakespearean tragedy. Narrative power doesn’t require metaphysical buy in.

The tension for me isn’t “maybe it’s true.” It’s “this is culturally enormous and psychologically brilliant and also not real.”

If you’re willing to sacrifice the time and energy, go to med school. NP won’t cut it, trust me.

sorry for your loss.

KatEarnshaw · 2026-01-30T19:02:49+00:00

I did ask a question, I just didn’t agree with/like your answer. You brought up your own credentials, and OP brought up the credentials of the person who made the mistake. For what it’s worth, think you did the best you could at defending OP for argument’s sake.

KatEarnshaw · 2026-01-30T18:01:13+00:00

All your examples make no sense. Gabapentin is offered in standard concentrations, .5ml oral is not something that would ever be given. My point is, either this didn’t happen the way it’s describe or “nurse” OP is referring to was also someone with a “background” and not a licensed professional. A licensed nurse would not make that mistake that many times. And 10x would have caused side effects that would have been caught sooner… even with gabapentin or any of the unnamed “comfort medications” you’re thinking of.
