I’m starting to think that a lot of #atheist #leftist misunderstand #religion. I went to church today. It wasn’t amazing but I did enjoy it. I think that religion, especially in the west, largely isnt about faith anymore. I enjoyed going to church because I saw people I knew, I saw people I didn’t. There was music.

It was a reason to gather.

    You can have community and assembly without fantasy. Of course a large portion of the appeal of religion is the community. That’s a compelling reason to set up atheist meetups and communities to give atheists that some of community as well!

      Unless you’re playing D&D and then the fantasy is fun.
