Picture of the Andromeda Galaxy, with an arrow pointing towards earth. The text for the arrow reads: “YOU ARE HERE”. And the bottom text reads: “AND GOD IS EXTREMELY CONCERNED ABOUT WHAT YOU DO WITH YOUR PEE PEE!”

    What religion are you talking about? Because in most of them the God figure cares a great deal about what we do.

      The religion tells us what does God say about our living. God says the right way to live is this; the way is best for US and God does not need us to live in the way.

        I think you’re intentionally leaving the “or else you’ll be punished for all eternity,” part out.

        It’s never just a suggestion with organized religion.

        A lot of the early stigmas and taboos about diet, clothing, and hygiene emerged from ritualized practices intended to prevent disease and promote human health. The lack of understanding meant the ritual divorced itself from the real best practices over time. But prohibitions on eating shellfish and chopping off the foreskin of your dick and keeping menstruating women out of the house were ultimately primitive efforts at avoiding food poisoning, curbing the spread of STIs, and managing the bloody mess of periodic period flow.

          You mean a woman menstruating in the house makes the milk sour? Any scientific studies proving this? God is just misogynistic old wanker. Fuck him! Hail Satan!
