Is /r9k/ religious? Seems like our holy mother the church is exactly what this place needs.
>>28614679
Allahu akbar, anon
No. I'm already moral without religion. The normies need it. What benefit would it give me besides a community I could pretend to be a part of, but would still get ostracized from for not being a normie.
>>28614871
>What benefit would it give me
Eternal life, true happiness, guidance above anything man can offer
>>28614679
I am but it in no way benefits me
Still too afraid to go to the church.
BAAAA-AAAAANE?

How can happiness built on a lie be true?

Why? Church is the last place you should fear
>>28615302
Which lie?
/r9k/ is not religious. The majority of us are godless heathens, whatever you want to call us.Go back to /pol/ if you want to start shit beyond just having your question answered please.

Isaiah saw the never-setting light of thy compassionate manifestation to us as God, o Christ. Rising early from the night he cried out:
"THE DEAD SHALL ARISE
Those in the tombs shall awake! All those on the Earth shall greatly rejoice!"

It's outside of my confort zone. Maybe in some years... maybe. I need time to get my shit together.
Does God evolve? If the creation reflects the creator and man evolves, does God evolve as well?
Can one even see the evolution of God through all three Abrahamic religions? Are all the religions of our forefathers merely independent faces of God before the age of global consciousness?
Just kidding, ha ha.

Christianity builds off of Judaism. It diverged from the Old Testament.
>>28616859
No Judaism was just to prepare the arrival of Christ. God remains unchanged
Am I the only one who likes to go to protestant websites to feel like a badass pagan worshipper of the sun?

Sure. When Miss Holy Mother there kills about 5 billion normies I'll award her any prize she wants.

How do you it was to help humanity prepare for Christianity and not Islam?
>>28616964
*know
Robox blox
>>28616964
Because I find Islam theologically, and scientifically inconsistent. Christ got announced by the prophets not Mohammed
>>28616964
Heavens filled with prostitutes.
I practice syncretic tantra of a luciferian nature. It's not about moral or meaning or happiness anymore, it's just what I do because I do.
>>28617003
Islam helped guide a man toward creating the scientific method which catapulted humanity into the modern age. If you want to judge a religion by its worst practitioners, all faiths fail the test.
Who are the prophets?
>>28617044
Are you sure that's what it says?
>>28617067
>who are the prophets
In the old testament. They predicted Jesus' life.

I bet some robots are at least nominally religious, but it does seem like a pretty nihilistic place to really have too many devout followers.
Religion, like work and personal responsibility, are too much for a board like this. I think religion, wagecuckery and "muh free will" are all lies, and I guarantee you most robots do to some degree, too.
>>28615338
>implying r9k does not engage in shitty degenerate arguments
Okey dokey m80
There's a lot of porn and rejection of "free will" here. Would be surprised if the userbase was religious.
I am a true follower of god.
Unlike you, catholic scum, bringing god to the level of humans by giving it your own disgusting moral compass. You and your kind -and i add almost every other stupid religion who brings god to a level worse than ant- are a disgrace.

I'm agnostic by the way. Just sharing thoughts about the nature of God. I couldn't care less that everyone is not in perfect agreement about the state of God. I think that full spectrum of opinion would be a testament to God's raw splendor if s/he/it does indeed exist. Why is it I must first believe in God to wonder about the nature of God? Everyone claims this sacred bridge within every conscious being belongs to them exclusively.
>>28614871
Religion isn't entirely related to morality, you know. Catholic religion is more about salvation.
Anyway I was baptized in a traditional catholic church 2 days ago. I'm 27 from a muslim (secular) family in France.
>>28617683
Well if you wonder about something specific I can give you the catholic viewpoint. What you think about Jesus?
I think the only way I could be more miserable is if I believed there were billions of people burning in hell.
The bible is the world's oldest meme. Some guy wrote it, convinced everyone it was the word of god because they were really, really dumb and gullible back then. It made sense for them to lack critical thinking skills given the level of knowledge about the world and the universe, but it does not make sense for people to believe it today. It is a book of nonsense that has been misinterpreted, retranslated and paraphrased over and over. God may very well be real, but religion is nonsense.

I wish I was born into a Jewish or Mormon family (in b4 memes), or maybe Catholic. Those religions turn out the nicest families and have the strongest communities, and all the jews I know are really successful and well-connected. My family was casual Protestant, I had a really secular childhood and became an atheist when I was twelve. I just want to be part of a community.

He yelled at a tree. He whipped merchants selling wares in his father's house. I suspect/hope he weirded the disciples out more than canon lets on. That's pretty cool. Plus there's that whole Gnostic side of things. But I like Catholicism for what it is within Christianity. It has been incredibly violent and oppressive, but it's also helped build the world I know today.
Thanks for the olive branch, but I should probably stop now before I end up thinking about this for the rest of the day. Thanks though.

Don't fear going to church, anon. That would be the last place you'd be judged.

I am a Mormon too, although a pretty bad one. I try to scroll past all the porn on this board but I still see it briefly and continue to visit a site that does not meet the standards of "For The Strength of Youth".
I'm 20 and still haven't gone on a mission. The thought of doing it terrifies me.
I've been praying to God to give me a gf since I was 14 and he's never answered my prayers.
>>28619326
I'm a Christian and I struggle with porn as well. You're not alone, brother. Try websites like r/nofap.

You have to put some work on your end too, friend. Have you been to church? There's lots of girls looking for husbands there.
>>28619337
>God's just gonna hand everything to you
I mean I'm an atheist cause I don't think there's any proof of a God, but this argument never made sense to me.
Philosophically speaking, why in a world, where God clearly means for us to grow from suffering (or at least means for us to suffer, anyway), would the same God give you anything you pray for? Have you even worked on getting a girlfriend?
It's like when that faggot Penn says that shit about people who... take some kind of safety precaution, I don't remember what exactly, clearly don't believe in God deep down, cause if they did, he would keep them safe.
Well, that's poppycock. God can establish any kind of order he sees fit, and perhaps the order he saw fit is one where you have to suffer to grow, and you should try to avoid death on your own.

I'm not religious but I'll say that the first part of Ecclesiasties in the OT is the greatest piece of literature ever written. The part right up until you get to the 'for every place there is a time etc.'.
Legit influenced me when I was 12 and first read it. Spoke to me like nothing else ever has.
>>28619462
I feel you, anon. My family is good Christians, but we're still poor. Meanwhile, there's rich atheists. Do we give up? No, we keep on pushing.
Like I said: if you sit in front of a computer, then God won't give you the opportunity to meet a girl. Start attending a church and girls will come to you, as you say you are a moral man, this attracts them.
God bless.
Not exactly religious, but a general faith in god I do have
Can't exactly associate with a church or synagogue or even a mosque or any religious institution because I just don't trust people that well, especially with something like faith in eternal, sacred, holiness. I always have a feeling nowadays that it could be controlled by people who just want money.

I don't believe in a need for salvation. I don't believe in sin. I don't believe in perfection beyond concepts of ideals. I don't believe in hell, and even if it exists I'd rather go to it than exist with the god that created it.
I think religion invents a problem in order to sell the solution.
I didn't recieve greater guidance with religion, and I'm fine with my relatively aimless path in life. I'd rather have eternal life in the imperfect real world than any idea of heaven I've heard. I wasn't any happuer in religion than I am now.
It's cool that other people believe but I don't need it.
I don't enjoy going to the church anymore because the social part of it makes me miserable
>>28614679
Domine Iesu Christe, Fili Dei, miserere mei, peccatoris. Amen.
