He's kind of right, but its not really religion, its any value system.


Everyone wants meaning, and the modern world dont offer much. So, people turn to "online communites"

The point is we all worship something. This is true for everyone. Even atheists.

This is just dumb. Needing religion is the ultimate crutch. Maybe some people are able to be productive members of society without the threat of burning in hell? One doesn't have to go to church or worship to know right from wrong.

Man is flawed. Maybe he needs a crutch. In any case, the shite people try to substitute for religion is pretty ridiculous.

Like, I saw this Reddit "supermod" trying to explain to somebody why he thinks incest is wrong once. He typed up all this gobbledygook about "consent" and power imbalances and I'm thinking, this is like watching someone try to do a brake job with a Playskool Handy Manny toy tool set.

That guy literally "needs Jesus." He is trying to explain why you shouldn't frick your sister but he doesn't have the philosophical tools to do it. The sex act isn't sacred to him, because really nothing is, outside perhaps of Man himself (presumably to the extent he doesn't get in the way of a bunch of horny, hungry animals).

So, rendered intellectually impotent by his own jingoistic beliefs, powermod boy falls back on the tropes of bland leftism (muh consent muh oppression muh safe sex) in the hope that there's something in there that really explains why you can't frick your sister.

There isn't. There's nothing in Progressivism, Secular Humanism, etc. that says it's wrong to get you some good birth control and frick your sister... or hell, go for the rectum. Why not?

Deep down Redditboi knows you should not frick your sister, or at least he needs to pretend that he understands that (for now at least), but he's only got the Fisher-Price-tier intellectual tools to fumble around and look like he's figuring out why.
