      In a cult, the people running it know it’s bullshit. In a religion, all the people running it who knew it was bullshit are long dead.

      Cults are just desperate people giving up on thinking for themselves.

      At a certain point I don’t blame them. I would like to give up on this whole life thing too. I’m pretty tired and it shows in my eyes. If you look into them you can tell that joy once lived there but it’s now an empty hollow. I’m not even kidding

      The problem with let go and let God, the let God people want to skull fuck the corpse of human autonomy.
