Religiosity definition by the Cambridge Dictionary: «Religiosity is the quality of being very or too religious, or reminding you of religious behavior, often in a way that is annoying:»
Right now, I think everybody knows, that there are two main global crisis: health and financial, and it is exactly in these times when people tend to become even more religious than before the crisis.
That is a fact which has been proven through out the history of the world for hundreds of years. You can see a quote here The crisis has helped fuel the increasing religiosity in the country
Let me share with you some thoughts:
«I am a HUMANIST, because HUMANS are important to me» — Dr. Martha Castro N., MD
AND THE FREE THOUGHT OF THE DAY:
No matter your beliefs, respect always comes first.
Religion is like a pair of shoes…..Find one that fits for you, but don’t make me wear your shoes.
—George Carlin
Don’t mention me about your religion! Show me your heart! If you have the heart of an innocent child, you have the best religion, even if you are a nonbeliever!
I am an agnostic; I do not pretend to know what many ignorant men are sure of. –Clarence Darrow
“Life without liberty, is a life not lived, and life without truth, is a life not understood.” “There’s a difference between an open mind and an empty head.”
― Abhijit Naskar.
Freethinkers are those who are willing to use their minds without prejudice and without fearing to understand things that clash with their own customs, privileges, or beliefs.
“Being holistic doesn’t mean mumbling mystical mumbo-jumbo all the time, it means seeing the reality as it is, without giving in to either supernatural nonsense or intellectual arrogance.”
― Abhijit Naskar
I absolutely despise the hypocrisy in religion. I was raised Catholic then Methodist and I was always taught “Judge not lest ye be judged”, “Love thy neighbor as thyself”, and “Do unto others as they would have done unto you.” So, what exactly have I witnessed in Christianity? None of it!
You can’t just call yourself a “Good Christian” and then discriminate against different groups of people. If there was really a God, why are very good people dying of terrible diseases like cancer? Why are so many people across the globe living in poverty? Why is there always fighting? Why is there no world peace?
It’s not okay to go up to someone and say “If you don’t accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior, you are going to Hell.” Everyone is entitled to have their own beliefs and people need to respect that. Also, there are over 4000 different religions throughout the world, so how can anyone assume that their religion is right and everyone else is wrong?
