Ways to know if you’re in a cult: you have to question if you can say science is real.

You have to ask permission to believe in things. This person is literally crowdsourcing their opinions. I've seen this elsewhere, as in "guys, is this transphobic? I can't tell"

What cracks me up is you know everyone in that thread hates religion because “it denies science and keeps people from thinking for themselves.” There’s zero self-awareness that they belong to one of the most fundamentalist religions currently in existence.

Yes, exactly!!! So ironic to see this behavior out in full force, when I used to witness the exact same thing among extremely dogmatic Christians, for example.

In a way, I'm a little bit glad that I grew up in a religion, just so that I could know what red flags to watch out for as an adult...
