I once saw the Virgin Mary as a glowing bit of dirt inside a cloud about 5 foot tall and she was upset that I did not recognize her.

This sort of superstition is in religion all the time. Genesis is literal, snakes do talk, Jesus was alone with the devil and somebody somehow was there to record the conversation for the imagined event. And of course, my bible has the words of Jesus in red. Why would those gospel writers lie?

The thing is, anyone else with a mental disorder is ostracized in this shithole country but not religious people. Churches don't get taxed, they discriminate many times against LGBT individuals, they are segregated in many areas of the country, and now they get special permission to ravage their cities with COVID. I am FUCKING SICK AND TIRED OF IT.

But, ask any Tithe Collector, aka Priest, and he/she will tell that " Superstition has NO place in Religion."

Neither do idols, yet churches are filled with them...

@Canndue Oh yes, they seem to have had a very permanent, severe case of 'Selective MASS Amnesia' when it comes to the many of their purported 'Commandments, including " Thou shall make nor worship any Graven Images."
