Top reasons why people are not religious anymore

I get it, you're missing the point on purpose.

Religion is just a meme.

Religions have little to do with gods and everything to do with control.

Think about it. Why would an immortal omnipotent, omniscient god need the adoration of us mere mortals so much it is willing to punish us for not providing it?

Partially true.

Man always falls short, no matter what. However, if you look at those who give the most of their time and money to helping those in need, the church far exceeds those in the secular realm, it's not even close really.

Democrats mainly preach to us to vote for people to force them to give more to government, on the assumption that government will then help the poor for them, while the vast amount of their money goes to other things like wars abroad.

Then they hire lawyers to get out of paying taxes.
The Democrat Party has turned into a cult that worships The State....Your taxes are indulgences.
 
It takes too much effort and self denial to be religious. Kids want instant gratuity.
and not just kids, either

Ever notice how immature some folks in Congress are? Pelosi, Schumer.. Schiffty, Maxine Watters telling everyone to attack Republicans when they are trying to eat or whatever they're doing...

geez... Kids could do a better job of governing

Ah, the ole broad brush...Can you say the same of the eastern religions?...Nope.

You're half right in the assertion that religion is but a meme.....If one has a purpose/mission that is a center of attention above themselves, that can suffice in the place of religious tenets....But we in the western world are increasingly living among people who put themselves at the center of the universe...Subsequently, and not coincidentally, we're living among a population of narcissistic, neurotic, unbalanced, mental basket cases....Ergo, participation in religious activities crashes.

Take a look at this page and model....

Sure I can.

ALL organized religion is about control

I don't subscribe to any organized religion and never will.

I do my own thing. I use bits and pieces of many philosophies in my world view and unite them with secular humanism which is the superior source of morals and ethics.

And not everyone who doesn;t participate in religious activities is narcissistic neurotic and unbalanced. In fact there have always been people who wanted nothing to do with religion who were renowned scientists and thinkers and are still thought of as great minds to this day.

The more woke churches become the fewer people want to attend them. I won't attend a church that approves of same sex marriage or holds abortion as a sacrament. The church should guide into decency not depravity. That's why people no longer attend church. It isn't because they are no longer believers.

As society evolves, so does our approach to spirituality. This post looks at the subtle yet profound shift from traditional religious adherence to a more personal, evidence-based belief system.

Just kidding, as it all boils down to what the democrat party says, just like in WaterBoy, it was all about what Mama say. So, what does Mama, i.e., the democrat party say?

View attachment 902058

1. Mama say science is preferrable to the Bible because science can be proved as where the Bible cannot be. Mama say we need more evidence for God, like we now have scientific evidence that men can have babies.

2. Mama say we should value individualism over tradition. This means you should value being your authentic self, like picking the sex and the 23,136 different made-up genders you like and having that abortion if you want it. And sometimes, old-school religious rules just don’t fit into that picture. If your personal values clash with traditional teachings like the boring 2 gender man and woman crap, it’s pretty normal to start looking for spiritual fulfillment elsewhere – something that feels more ‘you. In fact, just imagine, at one point you actually thought you knew what a woman was. Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!!!!

3. Mama say religion is hard with wide access to various beliefs on the internet. Thanks to the internet, we’re exposed to a world of different ideas and beliefs. It’s like a never-ending buffet of viewpoints, and that can make folks start to wonder about what they’ve always believed. Having all these options at our fingertips often leads to questioning and rethinking our own beliefs. That is, just so long as those viewpoints don't conflict with the views on the climate cult, the gender cult, the vaccine cult, and the pronoun cult, and pretty much any more cults Mama say we need that Mama must censor across the entire world, but I think that is only common sense.

4. Mama say more and more people are getting into secular humanism – the idea that you can be good without religion telling you how. It’s about believing in the goodness of humanity and doing the right thing because, well, it’s the right thing to do, not because a religious doctrine said so. Just think, at one point in your life you thought mutilating the genitals of children was bad, but Mama taught you better than that. Besides, looking at human history is obvious people deep down are sooo good, except for the Whtie Christian part.

5. Mama say people are disappointed by religious institutions. Mama say people were disappointed until the Pope blessed gay marriages and said building walls sends you to hell, and said that the biggest threat to mankind is climate change, then all of a sudden Mama say religion is not so bad after all, however, Mama still knows better. Mama just taught the Pope what is right and wrong and he just listened is all.

6. Mama say chasing material success has led to people falling away from God and religion. Mama say in our fast-paced, success-driven world, chasing career goals and financial security often takes center stage, leaving little room for spiritual pursuits, thanks to the Jewish capitalistic system of the racist hell fire free market system. It’s like we’re so caught up in the tangible stuff – the here and now – that the spiritual side of things can get a bit lost in the shuffle. That is why Mama say you need to vote for democrats to forcibly take that material success away from others and give it to you and other poor folk, because
material things will never fulfill you, so what we need is for the democrats to give people more material things stolen from the rich folk to show them it really leaves you empty inside after all. Really, all you need is the democrat party, that is the lesson, and not more stuff.

7. Mama say people are having changing social values. Mama say we need to be more inclusive to everyone because diversity is our strength, except for white Christian nationalists who are destroying the US and the world. Mama scream at them DIE!!!!!

8. Mama say education encourages people to ask more questions, and asking more questions leads to people questioning and rejecting religion. That is why Mama teaches children that asking questions about anything, other than the climate change, gender change, sexual preferences, using gender neutral bathrooms, boys playing girl sports, and vaccines is good for kids cuz Mama say children need to think critically against people who disagree with the democraty party.

9. Mama say celebrity influence has diminished people seeking God. Mama say people more interested to see if God is a Swifty than Swifty is into God, mainly because of her singing and dance routines which are to die for!!!

10. Mama say people are finding spirituality without religion. In fact, Mama say smoking weed brings you closer to God which is why Mama made it legal. Mama say it causes you to lose brain cells which is conducive to you listening more to what Mama say and becoming more spiritual.

11. Mama say people desire personal freedom more than rules from religion. That is why Mama say we should only care about the right to abortion and drug use as Mama take away their right to free speech, the right to assemble, or going to church during shutdowns. And don't get us started on Mama talking about your right to a gun or the right to choose what school your child goes to.

Mama say Ah!!!!! That feels better!!!
