>>2200202personally, im not religious, wasnt raised that way, had more then a few times to turn to religion, and my parents would have supported me just as much if i did, Christianity class in school, confirmations, etc etc
i was born with Osteopetrosis, the soothing words of priests on Christmas mass just rang hollow in my ears even from a young age
if you even slightly look into the "church" its always been a way to, idunno, for someone to sell you comfort
comfort bought is comfort sold
where religeon really starts getting interesting, for me atleast is reflecting values of the society that birthed it, Abrahamic religeons are actually pretty unique as far as i know in that they preach one totalitarian leader, and that man should follow

Fyrren raadner
som paa Fjældet staar,
vejrslagen, blottet for Bark;
saa er og han,
som Venner ej har,
hvi skal han Iænge leve?
the fir rots
that on the mountains stand
weather beaten, stripped of bark
so is she and he
without friends
how long will he live
my translation is imperfect at best
