I think its a good thing in terms of ppl being more free to not believe instead of being basically forced to be christian or religious

I think it’s a good thing because religions as a whole have always been something that divides people even among the same religion based on specific practices or beliefs

It’s a good thing, but I’m pretty sure more people are moving towards religion unfortunately.

Theres a debate on whether our morals stemmed from religion or if we naturally all feel similar about right and wrong. Like murder is obviously wrong, right ? But in some cultures it’s not viewed as inherently wrong, and their primary religion is different. I personally am not religious, but I do worry about the way society may progress morally if religion dwindles.

personally, in leaning towards it being a good thing. i think as a society we should lean towards rationality and science. within the last few decades, and especially recently, we've seen how religion can lead people towards acts of terrorism, bigotry, misogyny, etc. but im open to having my mind changed!

Bro I’m laughing at myself the way I worded it like it’s modern day. Murder is not accepted anywhere obv😭😭 (again some say bc of widespread religion) I meant like blood feuds in tribes, the Aztecs with ritual killings, etc.
