I hate to break it to you, but the religion is defined by the followers. You have to remember, your deity may matter to you, but for the rest of us, it’s made up.
It doesn’t have to be. You can certainly have a figurehead telling everybody what the religion is.
And when I say, the rest of us, I mean people who do not believe there was a dude that walked on water and died for our sins. Because all of it sounds remarkably implausible, and after all of these thousands of years, surely we would have some actual evidence by now.

So now your edgelord arrogance entitles you to speak for me, too?
Clyde, understand this and understand it well - a thousand years’ worth of life experience would not be nearly enough to qualify you to speak for me.
Okay?

That’s what you think this is all about? Cheap magic tricks (at best) reported on by people who were obviously huffed up on the best drugs available to them (at best)?
Are you sure your infamously shallow edgelord atheist “rationality” is even capable of barking up the right tree?
My arrogance allows me to say that I do not exist within the same belief system.
LOOL!!
Oh… you don’t share the same “belief” as the (supposedly) “Christian” society you were born into and raised within?
Really?
Do tell, Clyde… how much of that society’s values can actually be traced back to anything Christ said or did?
One percent?
0.5%, maybe?
None?
Rejecting a microscopic aspect of a society’s “beliefs” isn’t actually all that much - which means you can drop the Che Guevara act. You edgelords are not rebels and never have been.

Really? So religion is democratic, according to you?
Who are you speaking for, edgelord?

My arrogance allows me to say that I do not exist within the same belief system. That much is clear.
