I love how you folks always assume that if anyone doesn’t agree with your religion then they just don’t understand it yet. It’s not hard to grasp, it’s really fucking simple, and it’s not hard to see that every religion is just the same stupid woowoo bullshit.
Seriously, have you seen the “rokos basilisk” thing? Buncha self-identified “rationalists” recreating god from first principles and a network connection.
Yeah, I’m very familiar with the Rationalists, and the Zizians, they don’t understand that science-fiction is fiction, just like how other cults don’t understand fantasy is fantasy, cults are going to cult. If anything, they are a further call to reject religious/cult reasoning and culture. It’s a mindset that seeks an intentional and deliberate misunderstanding of reality.

Ah, but you see I am an atheist.
Sure.

Really the only prerequisite to falling into a cult is thinking oneself too smart or moral or whatever to fall into a cult.
