What does a “god shaped hole” look like? Sounds like an antigen receptor site that men and alcohol can fit into perfectly.
I can give a serious answer to this as a former Christian conservative.
It basically is “belonging”. If you’re not part of a group of people who care about you, going to a church where everyone cares about you might feel “good”.
Of course, if you do have friends, then you likely won’t have this hole.
Also being an super insular and introverted bastard also helps prevent such needs. I don’t need church the cats do just fine.
It also works when you just don’t have time to be sad about the shittiness of your situation. Haven’t had friends in years but i do have obligations that keep me so busy I don’t have room for feeling bad about it.
Hey if thats what keeps you going, but for me the only thing keeping me from going full hermit mode out in the Mojave is that I like running water and internet, electricity and air conditioning are a lot easier nowadays with solar and harbor freight batteries.
It looks like an anus, because that’s what it is, its their assholes. They love shoving things in their assholes including both alcohol and young men.
Explains the rapists priests
Some people just kinda need ritual and other elements of religion in order to feel their best, especially during difficult times. Community is another common need.
Many people use a variety of things to attempt to assuage unmet needs, psychological issues, and lack of personal fulfillment. Drugs, casual sex, religious devotion, overwork, and obsession over something (especially something like a sobriety program) are common ways of avoiding introspection to figure out what you need or doing the hard work to get it.
Christians love to tell people that alcohol and casual sex are coping mechanisms for lacking religion, but they never point out that sometimes religion is a coping mechanism for lack of casual sex.
It may sound weird, but there are people who can literally ‘feel the presence of God’.
Not sure what it is, if it’s some kind of weird chemical thing that creates the feeling, or perhaps a twist of the mind. But the ones I’ve talked to mention ‘feeling it in their heart’ and such.
To them it’s very real and it profoundly weirds them out that some people can’t feel it. And, in typical human fashion, they tend to assume those people aren’t trying hard enough/doing it right/are fundamentally broken.
Purpose is the name of the hole.
God is shaped like a tree, and the receptors are CB1 and CB2
(If you haven’t, read Snowcrash, it explores the concept of Religion being an emergent property of the way our brains are built…and there’s nuclear powered cyborg dogs)
There’s also vagina dentatas (what a wonderful phrase)
Hearing those words to the tune of Hakuna Matata (what a wonderful phraaaaase!)
yup, that was the intention
That’s right, it goes in the square hole.
It’s always projection.
some influencers glamorize taking antidepressants
For fuck sake.
I see more people complaining about needing anti depressants than glamorizing them
To clarify, the people I’m talking about are thankful to have them, but absolutely don’t glamorize them.
Interesting how it’s always other people who should change, never them.
I’m the perfect gods creation, and you should be more like meee
Conservative hole ignorance is what got us all into this mess in the first place. They must be so proud.
Only a woman who’s been pounded by a thousand men and pounded down a thousand bottles of liquor would come to a conclusion like that. “Hmm. Maybe I need God. Therefore everyone else does too.”
Yea did she just out herself as a sex addicted alcoholic who’s masquerading as a Christian ?
I know in which hole the alcohol goes. I also know in which hole the young men go, at least according to “missionaries”. Which leaves one hole for god, which also happens to be the one that people recommend when Jehovah’s Witnesses bother them.
As a man of the world, I know, of course, that the god hole can also be fruitfully used for/by alcohol and young men, implying that Kayleigh was quite fun at parties. “Outnumbered”, indeed.
If you’ve ever felt like some overly religious person was acting like they have a stick up their ass. Well, now you know.
Faith in treating people like shit, I guess.
In Mario’s Brother, we trust. 😏
This rhetoric is very common among Christians and is how I attempted to use religion to fill an estrogen and homosexuality shaped hole in my heart.
Like I’m not even anti religion, my years as an atheist left me with a religion shaped hole and that’s how I wound up pagan. It’s irresponsible however to assume your needs are everyone’s needs.
Dear Gods, every day I wake up to find yet more (I don’t know what, coalesced stupidity?) from the US, each day lowering the bar.
Can you please pull yourselves together, if not for the rest of the world, for yourselves?
There’s a reason England was by and large happy to see the ass-end of the morons they shipped over here to seed this colony. It’s always been like this, you just see it now because of the Internet. Well, also because their numbers have dwindled so much they’re forced to homogenize. Used to be they’d argue back and forth about the correct belief system endlessly (you’ll recall Protestants at one time loathed Catholics and Mormons were a heretical and dangerous cult to be avoided). Now their only message is how you have to get all your holes filled while dying your hair and fucking up your face with caked on makeup and plastic surgery - anything to pump up the numbers.
For those of us who have given serious thought to philosophy and life and death and science versus myth - we’ve managed to get a grip on mortality. These freaks have not and can not - they don’t have the tools for it. And thus, they all remain themselves tools.
Plenty of us over here have been frustrated about it our whole lives, even before the Internet. There’s nothing to do but wait it out. You can’t fix stupid.
Not only did they homogenize but they also became bastardized version of their specific branches while they were at it, with maybe the exception of the Mormons but they’ve always been shit. Historically a lot of these Christian sects were more than capable of handling non belief since they would just leverage culture and economics to maintain relevance, think like how John Brown while a complete zealot was more than willing to work with folks who he considered quite questionable since all are sinners but also kill all slavers. While this could be abusive there were also plenty of situations where the individual priests were closer to community leaders than anything else, hell one of my ancestors went to church where they had a Scottish protestant, a Irish Catholic, and Swiss Jew as the priests they only tried to stab each other over politics.
But well as a lot of things go they sold their souls to the devil, which is to say they traded long term influence and stability for short term relevance and political power. They’ll burn out eventually since even in the Bible belt folks are getting sick of that shit, frankly it’s more a question of how much they’ll break before they’re too weak and irrelevant to do any more damage.
They do always seem to have something up their ass, makes sense.
“Faith” is just another distraction. The difference is that Christians have convinced themselves that if they still feel a hole in their life, then they must be Doing It Wrong.
It’s proven to improve your mental health.
According to what? And how do you define “faith”?
Young men in the wrong hole? I didnt know such a thing was possible…
