There are no guardrails in life

That's why religion unfortunately continues to exist. They are the imaginary guardrails, but towards an imaginary goal that is often taken advantage of.
In my opinion this is a bit of a narrow view. It definitely holds true for many Christians. But I think some religions like Buddhism may actually help you find a way without guard rails.
It certainly did for Hitler!
The problem with the guardrails that actually do work is that they often encompass entire fields of active and progressive study that is constantly evolving, and most people/families/societies ain't have the time or experience to keep up with that. Living without guardrails is simple, it's called evolution.
Very reddit of you. Religion bad, upvotes please.
Too close to home, huh? It's bad enough to be fueling most major world conflicts today, yes. Since you seem to be desperately obsessed with them, have an upvote.
๐ that you couldn't identify the obvious irony kind of makes my point about your shallow observation. Saying religion is an imaginary guardrail discounts all spirituality as well. That you think anyone would care about upvotes on the fediverse is wild
Here you go, bud, have another upvote, totes all spirituality and shit.
They didn't say it was bad, just that it exists to provide guardrails, but is often exploited by corrupt people. Which is a historically accurate statement
Yeah right? Zero respect for satanism/demonolatry
