I’m curious how much of the traffic here is people with religious beliefs.

There’s no rule against it. I just want to understand better. I’m not interested in debating or criticizing anyone’s choice to visit the comm or practice religion.

My questions:

  • Do you practice or otherwise hold some sort of faith? What kind? Is there a comm for it?

  • What are your thoughts on this (c/Atheism) comm? Do you visit because threads appear on your front page, or do you subscribe/visit intentionally? Why do you click on the topics / what kinds of topics do you click on?

  • Do you comment when you read threads here, or are you more of a lurker?

  • Is there anything you would like to express to the members of this community?

Thank you in advance for any responses.

    I would argue that not believing in gods is not the same as being religious or spiritual.

      I was trying to keep the post simple so I didn’t include this. Sorry for being reductionist, you’re right and thank you for bringing it up.

        You’re good. I understood the question. Since I have you, I am atheist but I take stuff from Buddhism, Shintoism, and combine them with universal connectedness. I believe we are connected to all things past, current, and future. That’s deeply meaningful to me.
