Besides the stupidity of this post, you guys do realize that male loneliness is, in part, just how we organize as primates, right?

You’re looking in the wrong direction. Inconsistency in religion is the name of the game. No base to stand on in the fucking Bible. Look in the direction of sociology, and on your way, take a peek at Buddhist theories of mind. The Buddha was a real philosopher whose system is partially used today everywhere in psychology. Christianity popped up in an area dominated by Western philosophy, and it’s valuable to take a look at what the East had going on.

Academia is a capitalist indoctrination/gatekeeping machine, but I won’t get into that. You know there are mixed, opposing religions, right? Things like African American Christians still worshipping indigenous African gods. I don’t know if you’ve heard, but the world isn’t black and white anymore. You can use language however you want, but you can’t just do religion correctly, Christian is a self-proclaimed title linguistically and by subjective categorization (even the tree of life is old news - labels to make sense of shit), and from my experience “real Christian” is a term used by apologists to distance themselves from people like The Westboro Baptist Church (who actually read their bible). Been that way since I was balls deep in watching Matt Dillahunty and shit 15 years ago when I gave a shit about atheism.

Untrue. Christianity is self-proclaimed. This “real Christian” bullshit is apologetic nonsense, just like “the devil made fossils.”
