A lot of the posts here are just pointing out how illogical religion is, which I don't mind. I'm religious myself, but I'm well aware how ridiculous it is. What does bother me is the arguments against Christianity that are used as arguments against all religions. Most of you were likely raised christian, so I understand why you focus on it, but most religions don't have all of the problems Christianity does. I think a lot of the posts here would fit better in an ex-christian community.

Thanks, I was also pretty surprised by the down votes. My experience on Lemmy so far would have led me to believe this post would be received well. I will say this community has been much better than its reddit counterpart though.

I've had great conversations here, which is part of the reason I cared enough to make this post. If there's any place this community could thrive as a place for open conversation, its here.
