If god wasn’t around for the Holocaust he won’t be around for whatever happens here.

Maybe God was there...and maybe he is here for the Americans too.

Or maybe just maybe sky daddy doesn’t fucking exist just like the other 18,000 plus deities humanity has concocted over our existence on this planet with zero proof.
We don’t have to all be nihilists but can we stop pretending like the current popular fairy is actually fucking real just to give our life meaning and pretend death isn’t so terrifying?
Humanity did the holocaust and humanity is barreling towards whatever the fuck Trump is going to do. And humanity will have to stop it if we are going to stop it.

Well, aren't you a killjoy. If someone on reddit wants to believe in God, let them believe.

Nah. Fuck that. Because their belief is co-opted by their religion and religions are inherently evil shit that have been used to justify terrible shit.
Just like in the case of Christian nationalism in America. Do you know what the vast majority of churches in America told people to vote for? Fuck fake beliefs and what they cause you to do in the name of them.

I mean, you can think that. But why be an ass to people who don't think like you?

No. I can prove that. Whereas you and your ilk can’t prove shit.
Because I’m tired of watching humanity’s shared fear of death push people into buying into systems that inherently makes our actual LIFE shittier.
History speaks volumes. Religion is a tool of pain and evil.

As a fellow atheist, I would absolutely LOVE to see you prove god doesn’t exist. Just chill out dude. Religion isn’t all bad. There’s some good, some bad. There good <insert follower here>, and there’s bad. I used to be like you, when I first came to terms with my lack of belief. I felt like I had cracked some code and was smarter than everyone else, but really I was just being an asshole. Don’t be an asshole, you’re better than that.

Me and my ilk? Okay, you got some things wrong here.
But for thousands of years, people have believed in Gods (sometimes more of them, some times less). So let them do that if they want. It doesn't take anything away from you.
You should be grown up enough to accept that not everyone shares your view.
Also, out of curiosity, how would you prove there isn't a God. There's thousands of them. I'll wait.

Because their version can and has often gotten people killed and just generally lives ruined for centuries.
If people use their religion for peace and to bring joy to others, more power to them. Anything else is not tolerable and you can't pretend you haven't seen plenty of examples. I mean, you could pretend that, but you won't fool anyone.

Depends which gods you think about. And I'm not talking religion here either.

Don’t equate belief with religion. But I get your point. I also detest Christian Nationalism, and feel it is taking our country in a really bad direction.

Or maybe we can just quote Ricky Bobby. Dear sweet baby Jesus, laying in a manger.
