My views on religion and belief

On the question of religion and belief, I generally agree with BILL, I do not believe in the existence of a so-called God, I do not believe in any gods in any religion, because there is no real proof of their existence, even if there is Such a super creature, I don’t think he will act as human imagined, and the histories of the gods preached in various religious schools are indeed ridiculous from the point of view of today’s people, just like China’s twenty-four Like the emperors recorded in the history, the sky will fall auspicious clouds, the house will be full of colorful lights, and the mother and the beast will be pregnant and give birth to the emperor in October. Is there anything more bullshit than this? Because history is first written to The emperor looked at it, and I looked at various religions in the same way, but I didn't mean to blaspheme them. In addition, I also very much hate people who use the name of God to swindle and deceive people everywhere, obviously for their own interests, but they fool a lot of people to follow Ya. Everyone goes to be cannon fodder. Fuck promises, that's what blind faith leads to.
Since it's about faith, this is where I and Bill's views diverge. Not everyone believes in religion, but I think everyone should have beliefs, right? I don't believe in gods, but I believe in my own ideals. Without belief, I don't know where to go. Our generation often talked about ideals when we were young, but now when we talk about ideals to others, many people will laugh at you for being innocent and naive. It's a very sad thing. In fact, they are not without faith, they believe in cynicism, believe in thick black, believe in gold worship, and so on.
No matter whether you believe in religion, theism or atheism, if your beliefs are blind and you don't have time to reflect, then whether you believe in or not, you will be easily lured by others. Do you really think that if you don't believe in religion, you will not Been fooled? Just like XXism, it can be a good tool for cheating after being used by others. Conversely, if I believe in religion, must I be fooled by others? Not really, right? It can be seen from the conversations of many people in the film that everyone has their own views on the understanding of religion, not all of them have a unified thought, so you can't talk about religion for nothing. The most important role of faith is to Spiritual support, psychologically speaking, many people will pin their hopes on other things, it should be a very trustworthy thing, it will not be like a great man, it will not It never even appears, but it is eternal and indestructible. It supports believers in the most critical times so that they will not be knocked down by difficulties. From this point of view, the role of religion is positive. of.
The deepest impression I felt after watching this film was not BILL's vitriol, but what is true freedom of speech, no matter whether you are a congressman or a god, still embarrassing you, not letting you go down the stairs, making you sweaty and overwhelmed , you can disagree with my opinion, but I have the right to express my opinion. This is unimaginable in some countries. If Bill speaks like this in some countries, he will probably be buried when he goes out. The leader knows what you said is right, but turns his head and gives you small shoes.
I think this film is unfair during the debate. It is obviously edited according to the producer's ideas. I feel that many points of religion have been edited out. Called, but the opponent was silenced. Add a lot of mocking sequences in post-production, if the producers really want people to see the absurdity of religion, don't use this kind of crap, I think it's even useful for convincing people who are deeply religious. opposite effect.
