Some of y'all aren't going to like this one, but the truth hurts.
Government is just secular religion, and religion is just old-school government.
Both rule by fear, indoctrination, and blind allegiance to an unquantifiable entity.

@Bunnyslope Yes, in the Old Testament Hell was literally on earth.
Plagues of locusts. If God didn't like you he would tell you to murder your first born child and if you didn't, he was going to punish you and your family because he's God and you're just an ant.
Actually, in that particular case he tortured Abraham anyway just for Lols.
If God is real, he's sick, evil, and this is Hell.
@Zahadoom ah yes, God doesn't rule by fear.
Of course not.
He just allows his ex-disciple Satan to punish everyone who doesn't prostrate themselves before God with ETERNAL HELLFIRE AND AGONY.
@eriner @Zahadoom I don’t disagree with your primary tenets. However, Hell doesn’t exist in the Old Testament, nor in Judaism (and probably other religions).
@eriner how is government not a quantifiable entity? And I don't feel ruled by fear from God at all. And God never indoctrinated me either, I walked my own path. I rejected the premise, was an atheist for decades, until I realized I needed to defend by position, reaching for the truth, for the origins, led me back.
I became to believe in Jesus because his words are so pure and filled with truth. I also do not like to call myself a Christian becuase then I take on sins of the "Church"'s
