      Religion manifests in many ways. Some of them problematic, some aren’t but so are other ways of viewing the world.

      No, seriously; you know, how actual acquired mental disorders happen, because you adapt harmful thinking patterns early on? Religiosity is not classified as one, but it shares the same mechanisms, including rejecting/downplaying evidence by habit.

      Belief without evidence isn’t exclusive to religion. Artist could add a third guy in a MAGA hat and it’ll still apply.

      The strange part is the societal expectation/demand that I respect their unjustified beliefs varies depending which group we’re talking about.

      idk if a disorder is allowed to apply to over 80% of humans, so then it’s just normal but disappointing to the odd ones who are less vulnerable to this kind of detrimental stuff.
