Which no one in this thread has done? The article even has advice on this matter quoted at the root of this thread: "reminding us that falling for such fictions doesn’t make us stupid or bad people".
- umvi 3y agoConfidently labeling religious beliefs as "fictions" seemed a bit disrespectful to me.
- bazoom42 3y agoLabelling it fiction is more respectful than labelling it baloney. But if the belief is non-falsifiable or outrigth falsified, then it is baloney. People should be allowed to belive whatever they want, but that does not mean other should have to belive it.
- sn9 3y agoBelief in any one religion usually entails a corresponding belief that all other religions are "fictions". Atheism is just adding one number to that count.
