An interview about religious beliefs

1. Do you believe in religion? If so, why do you believe it? If not, why is there?

A: No, I have no reason to believe in a certain religion: first, my spirit is not empty; Second, there is no evidence to prove that what religion says is true. Of all the religions in the world, which one has proved itself? Third, I don't accept unfounded answers. I'd rather stay in an unknown state than find an answer to fool myself.

2. Do people need to believe in religion?

A: I don't deny that some individuals need to believe in religion. After all, people are different, you don't need it, and others don't necessarily don't need it, but religious belief is not the same need of human beings. It is unreasonable to think what human beings are like without faith.

3. What do you think about religious belief?

A: A person's foolish belief is superstition, while a group of people's foolish belief is religious belief.

4. What's your attitude towards religious belief?

A: Religion can maintain social order to a certain extent, and make people dare not go beyond the rules through mental intimidation and deception, which plays a cohesive role. However, from the perspective of human development, religion is a stumbling block to rationality, a spiritual toxin and the biggest mental obstacle to human progress. Generally speaking, the disadvantages outweigh the advantages.

Do you believe in ghosts in the world?

A: There is no basis for me to believe.

6. Can religious belief defeat ghosts?

A: Because of the answer of 5, this question is meaningless.

7. With the development of science and technology, why do so many people still have religious beliefs?

A: There are many reasons: 1) Not everyone is rational enough, especially ordinary people, whose scientific thinking ability is not high. Even college students can think rationally. Even among some people engaged in scientific work, there is still a lack of rationality in some depths of consciousness. 2) In countries with rich religious traditions, religious education starts with dolls, which has a subtle influence. 3) Religion is a huge system of lies, and it is used to being far-fetched and lying. To give the simplest example, when Einstein was alive, he publicly declared that "I believe that what Christ said is a lie" and "I don't believe in a personified God". But now 2 1 century, decades after Einstein's death, Christianity is still spreading rumors that Einstein is a Christian. At the same time, the rumor of Darwin's confession after his death is spreading over and over again. Even if it is revealed to be a lie, it will continue to spread in another place. People can't be all-rounders in disguise. They know everything. There are always some people who are deceived by organized religious lies in unfamiliar areas. Once deceived, it is difficult to jump out. After all, religion is organized, and anti-religious lies are unorganized.

However, there is a good development trend. In some countries with strong religions, although the proportion of believers is high, the proportion of religious believers is decreasing year by year, and the proportion of believers is inversely proportional to scientific literacy. The higher the scientific level, the lower the proportion of religious belief.

Many believers will say that 99% of scientists are religious, but this 99% is even in ancient times, and many non-religious people, such as Einstein and Madame Curie, have also been distorted as having religious beliefs. There are many false contents. And the trend I mentioned above, they never dared to mention.

It should be pointed out that in a non-religious country like China, the proportion of religious people is increasing year by year, but the most easily accepted groups are still the vast rural areas and other culturally and economically underdeveloped areas.

8. If religious belief is a spiritual sustenance, do you need spiritual sustenance?

A: At least I don't need religious spiritual sustenance.

9. How can we establish correct religious beliefs? 10. Is there a right or wrong religious belief?

A: I will answer these two questions together. There is no right or wrong religious belief. If you need it, it is the truth in your heart. If not, it doesn't matter. It is the product of subjective judgment, and there is no standard or possibility of objective judgment.

But a person with religious beliefs should at least know how to respect the basic morality of others. Unfortunately, religious groups are the ones who don't know how to respect others, because one of the basic characteristics of religious believers is to believe that their religion is the absolute truth. On this basis, they can't accept other ideas, and smarter believers will make the good things of non-religious system, such as scientific achievements, seem to have existed in this religion for a long time (this situation exists in YSL, Buddhism and Christianity in large numbers). Either it was discovered under the guidance or inspiration of XXX, or it was deified and packaged. For example, God-guided evolution is an example. Stupid believers, such as fundamentalists, strongly oppose modern science, such as evolution and geology, and even go so far as to have an organization called the Horizon Society, which firmly believes that the earth is flat.

Therefore, how to establish a correct religious belief is both simple and difficult. Believe in yourself and don't spread religion casually, but the difficulty is that most believers have a very strong desire to preach.

================

There is a very deceptive logic in the reply of King Datong Mountain on the third floor, that is, "What you can't see doesn't mean it doesn't exist". It should be said that there is no problem with this idea, but this idea is the most deceptive, because this sentence does not mention the other side, that is, "If there is no evidence, do you say it exists?"

Religious believers can't produce their own evidence, so they say, "Just because you can't see it doesn't mean it doesn't exist". When I don't mention another aspect mentioned earlier, the subtext is "although I have no evidence, what I said must exist" Many people were stunned by this subtext.

In fact, without evidence, we don't know what exists, that is, "unknown" But religious believers have to say that they know this unknown (even if they don't know the truth, they will imply this conclusion).

There are many things that science cannot explain, and our conclusion should be unknown. If science wants to give a statement, it must have a basis. But when religion gives explanations, it never needs a basis.

When others question his argument, they use "Invisible doesn't mean nonexistence" (that is, no evidence doesn't mean nonexistence) to pass the buck.

Religion blinds people with lies, but accuses science of deceiving people and reversing right and wrong.

This is the cunning of religion. No religion is an exception.
