unless this armored skeptic guy has done psychedelics I don't give a fuck about his opinion
Thats such stupid logic.
"Until you've walked with Jesus and seen his glory, I dont give a fuck about your opinion"
Same logic
not exactly. jesus is like actually a fallacy. dude never existed. there are no legitimate records of him ever being alive other than whats found in the bible. that's because all of the stories in the bible are an amalgam of mythological stories that have existed for thousands of years appropriated for the thousandth time. like xeno said, none of this shit is meant to be taken literally, it's all symbolism for natural/spiritual phenomena. people who study mythology and spirituality etc know that, but people who take the shit literally (who are monotheists for the most part) don't know any better, and the result is some really disgusting shit. I'm not going to pretend the answer to everything lies in doing "drugs" and that spirituality/paganism isn't kind of silly sometimes, but in my opinion it's more on the money with how people should practice spirituality than any of the three abrahamic religions.
People should just live in the objective secular reality. No religion. No spitiruality. No paganism. No monotheism. No polytheism. Real life
you forgot to add no pussy
1. Unrelated 2. Relating it: vaginas are objectively real - you CAN see and study them 3. Why do you care so much that I dont get laid?

that's what you don't understand. spirituality is a part of real life. look how long it's been a part of human society. since we can even trace it. all mythology is directly inspired by the real natural world and it's literal and figurative place in universe. if you want to be secular that's fine, I support that over being a jesus freak, but there's so much behind spirituality that you dismiss because you dismiss one really fucked up and corrupt version of it.

Spirituality exists as a way of explaining the unknown. We dont need that anymore. Science proves object reality now. And philosophy can be used to discuss the abstract without applying bullshit metaphysical theories to reality
okay so I guess Russell brand is a dipshit lol. but again, this video is mostly shitting on spirituality from a bashing christianity point of view, so we can agree monotheism is stupid. but you don't understand the nature of mythology and polytheistic religions. while there are certainly aspects to it that concern the nature and mystery of death, so much mythology is just history written in symbolism, allegory for celestial events, etc. it's not just about explaining the unknown, it's the preservation of ancient knowledge, real history. whether or not you care about that is ultimately up to you but to me it's asinine to see paganism/polytheism in the same light as the abrahamic religions. nothing's wrong with hippies wanting to worship nature

I dont understand. We agree religion is bullshit. We agree there are no gods. We agree its stupid to have faith in something not tangible...
So why do you defend spirituality and hippy nature pantheistic religions? Hinduism is polytheistic - and they support an oppressive caste system. Is that better? Odinism is pantheistic and polytheistic, and Odinists are (now) racists. You just hate Christianity in reality.
I hate organized religion, but I believe there is merit to spirituality/mythology. I dislike monotheism so much because it's pretty much an explanation of the universe that attributes everything to one creator, and then one person is to tell you how these writings, which have been around for thousands of years before they were even written down, are to be interpreted. I'm not pagan or polytheistic really, but I think for the most part they have a better idea of spirituality and the nature of the universe than monotheists. So much of pagan/spiritual/metaphysical thought is about focusing on yourself and how you can be best prepared for death (being a good person and using this life to the fullest potential), instead of upholding and forcing a strict moral code so you don't burn in hell. And as I've been saying, many of the stories in myth aren't just made up bullshit about stars, but real history coded in symbolism. I think that knowledge is interesting.
to me the underlying belief in any worthwhile form of spirituality is that we are all/came from one source (big bang or something else I don't know) and should live in harmony with universe as a whole and of course our surrounding environment, aka the earth. when we live in a secular society, we see everything as purely material and so we can manipulate it to suit our needs, even if it fucks over the environment and causes things like climate change. I'm not going to dismiss science at all, but I believe we need a paradigm shift to change how we view our relation to the only planet we can live on, and I believe pagan forms of spirituality. what's bad about that? how's that the same as monotheism?

Because its rooted in the same bullshit.
A lot of monotheists do some great things too. Doesnt change the faith is bullshit.
