@georgia @FiringSquadsEnjoyer @catholick @nyx i am religious and spiritual surprisingly.

i just find religious organizations, covens, and cults to me as same thing —with different connotations.

i have more hangups with organizations over spiritual texts because ultimately they'll twist the texts to suit their purposes. while we as people are often no better, we still have the ability to both think for yourself and to ask for guidence if need be. to me that also means the morals are subjective, and that it is ultimately more important to have your own takeaway, and to talk about things openly.

@georgia @FiringSquadsEnjoyer @catholick @nyx i cant really comment on appeals to morality bc i worry id be a hypocrite (i do appeal to morals a lot because i want to see people be kinder to one another. this is also why i am against fascists bc it wants certain people to be cruel with impunity). i just am at a point where i realize morals are subjective, and ultimately people will do whatever to justify things that meet their moral compass. it often feels like a moot point on the internet, even when there are ultimately things that most people will agree with morally

dont mind me i took a few too many benedryls
