Why are they even in war against porn?
/j lust is just the second layer, try doing something about worse stuff like greed or gluttony
Because christians think they can make the rules for the rest of us. And they use scare tactics like, "protect the children", which they are molesting. Plus, they don't want anybody to be happy and have any fun. That's the point of christianity, to make everyone miserable, FOREVER.
That's how I try to describe growing up with it when people ask why I don't to to church or subscribe to any religion.
Aside from the many other aspects of it, even as a child, I couldn't understand why I was supposed to be so enthusiastically smug that I belonged to this thing that seemed to exist only to impose rules on everything imaginable and that those rules would invariably be against anything even remotely fun or pleasurable. Hell we couldn't even use most spices; thanks Dr Kellogg.
At age six or so I legitimately perceived it to be sinful to smile or laugh for fear I'd be punished because there would be some arbitrary rule that whatever caused me to smile or laugh was too worldly.
Fuck that. I'll be miserable and curmudgeonly on my own terms!
It's nice to be free of all of that. No one should be allowed to join a religion until they are 21.
FUCK RELIGION
Amen
