I don’t think speaking about religion is a problem. Here's what I think, for what is worth:
First, your message may give the impression that you are giving an unfounded lesson to some people here. “You will not […]”
Second, you may be speaking a language to which not everyone is receptive. For instance, you are stating things about our duties, but people who don’t see a meaning or a goal in life (does it sound sad?), or don’t feel they have a specific duty may not fully understand your message.
Some people here may also be seeking evidences for some statements you make because they are not obvious to them. For instance: how can you know that nobody will ever suffer as much as Jesus or more? Is there a study out there finding this result?
Though I may also be doing the mistake you may be doing, that is, not speaking the right language to be understood (I may also have offended you by doing so and I'm sorry for that if that is the case). Quite like in the following copy-pasted joke:
---
A religious women upon waking up each morning would open her front door stand on the porch and scream,
“Praise the Lord.”
This infuriated her atheist neighbor who would always make sure to counter back,
“There is no Lord.”
One morning the atheist neighbor overheard his neighbor praying for food, thinking it would be funny, he went and bought her all sorts of groceries and left them on her porch. The next morning the lady screamed,
“Praise the Lord, who gave me this food.”
The neighbor laughing so hard he could barely get the words out screamed
“It wasn’t the Lord, it was me.”
The lady without missing a beat screamed:
“Praise the Lord for not only giving me food but making the atheist pay for it!!”

- sdegutis 7y agoThank you for that wonderful joke! Your advice reminds me of what Ven. Fulton Sheen talks about here[1], and your great joke reminds me of his other videos[2].
