Only one I was watching consistently was Jojo. Shit came on at 3:30 or 4:30 a.m. In Kyoto.
Catching up on HunterxHunter but it really drags out.

It's not an assumption at all. Quite literally the idea is that every single person who has walked or will ever walk this earth is a sinner (and by proxy a hypocrite). If you ever meet someone who isn't then congrats, you met Jesus/God.

We all know what that's really about. Projecting those insecurities. It always has been.
There' are probably dudes crying right this moment that women get more choice in the matter of their sexual partner than they have for centuries.
Ok, let me rephrase: I believe that it's possible to not be a hypocrite in how you live your life.
I just realized that the whole concept of a sin is dependant on whether or not you believe in religious values to begin with...

MRA dudes.
I'd say it's possible to hide your hypocrisy more than anything, that or your list of what you consider a sin is much smaller than what the bible considers one.
Though I am sad you just realized the second point lol. :3

This is how PUA's are born. A friend tried to get me to read The Game. It looks like a bible.

My only regret is that it was closed before I could flood it with dudes getting their asses slapped...because that would have been totally accepted, right?

Right, still viewing women through the lens of sexual conquest rather than people. Although there are all kinds of shades of this that people do who are uninvolved in that MRA/PUA shit and get highly defensive when called out about it.

Beat me by seconds and hell yeah you can post dudes too. It might not be for me but it's all fair when it comes to ass slaps.

There wasn't a single point in my life when I believed even as a kid far as I know/remembered/was told. I'll never grasp why people do in the first place
Indoctrination at an early age usually

I've never heard of such a denomination, but Occam's Razor says she's going by the standard.
You're right about most people being hypocrites, but in this case it's these same people that end up holding back any sort of progress. So I can't see religious hypocrisy in the same lens as other forms of hypocrisy.
Anyways, I'm not judging the promiscuity. That's all good and well. In fact, I don't care what people do for the most part, as long as it's not harmful.

Wow, the thread blew up this morning. I'm not religious, I just try to live my life and respect people who I meet unless they're on some "fuck you" shit.

I also agree that shutting down that one girl who asked the question was fucked up. People come to the door willing to be educated and we toss them out? Mmph.

Sense of belonging. Desire for some sort of afterlife. Hoping there is some grander plan to all this because everything just being some random occurrence can be a scary concept.
I hate that shit. The idea that we were just wild animals without religion is a farce. We would have died out a long time ago if we didn't come to mutual understandings quick.
Nah, this is the most discussion on religion we've had in all the OT's. Religion comes up and everybodys heads get stuck in the sand between the dissenters and persecution complexes.

All of this. I told a friend what I believed, and he was like "that's genuinely depressing."
No, it's life. You don't need a reward to not fuck people at every turn.

Religion is whatever, I know people who are religious but still all about equal opportunity. I'll see more sexist crap from dudes in atheist circles sometimes.

Yeah. I mean religion bashing doesn't suddenly wash away patriarchal ideas that nonbelievers are entrenched in.
Throw racism in there too. As "enlightened" as some vocal atheists purport to be, social inequities seem to be lost on them unless it involves their favorite past time: shitting on religion. Probably has a lot to do with their demographics.

They're nice pictures but there's something... generic(?) about them. That said, I'm now looking up Singapore because your thread has piqued my interest.
Singapore is going to basically be the model for my game's setting.

Many religious people are brought into churches from birth/before even entering a school. For those people it's not a choice they decided to make one day, it's part of their cultural traditions and overall family acceptance. It's not hard to make that leap when your parents have made it for you.

Most modern day Christians get the bulk of their theology from the Pauline scriptures. Those scriptures announce freedom from the law (Judaic law/OT), but reiterates some of their edects as being useful morality. Hence the shellfish/pre-marital sex divide.
I'd roll my eyes at someone always talking about putting God first and then ignoring basic tenants of its view of moral living. More because I'd view the declaration as bragging or trying to appear a certain way, while not really showing any discipline towards those ideas. MLK was always wildin' but also showed dedication and pereserverence towards doing work very important to God's kingdom. Someone telling me about how much they love God and always talking church shit when I'm not trying to hear it, and then blatantly ignoring basic tenants? Nah, they're lame and are just concerned about me thinking they're "Godly," "a good Christian," or better than me.
I haven't seen imm0rt4l's original post, so I'm just assuming a bit based off of these last two pages.

Well sure.
I'm of two minds about it though since I find some of the basic tenets lacking in basic human understanding so much so that the most "holy" of people couldn't even adhere to them.
Sexual purity to me, even ignoring the obvious gender double standards for a second here, has always seemed like more of a method of control by the powers that be than anything holy.
