Well it's probably best to let people worship their chosen "sky pixies" then and not interfere in anything else we casually mock but don't appreciate.

You were the one who suggested going into their place of worship and saying it.
Apply this to the rest of your viewpoints.
Soldato
Whoosh.
You've some how managed to make the point others were making, against your own previous posts.
How you've done that with complete ignorance I don't know.
Now that we've come to the natural conclusion of this silly distracting attempt, let's get back to Elon the messiah and his greatness/lack of greatness
You know, this guy

I consider people's religious beliefs pretty sacrosanct and to be treated with respect. Any ideas religion's going away any time soon is ridiculous, there's probably been more religious premises built in the UK during the last 20 years than there has for the last 100 or so.
Soldato
I like how you view the quantity of building as an example of religion not going any where, rather than the percentage of population.
Did you know there's a shortage of homes? Now, a really silly person would say "but there's more houses built in the last 20 years than the last 100"
But as before, your "everyone must follow me rules to protect others that I don't mind, but then not protect those I do mind" is not anything at all related to Elon nor twitter

I find it hard to respect stuff that’s made up and provably false. Religion is stupid. IMO.

Off topic, but... I was a militant atheist most of my life. But as I approach 60 I've searched for any proof that secular society is functioning as I'd wish it too. Community; keeping an eye on each other; being a team to support each other in everything, rather than living as islands of humanity where government fills the gaps. Inadequately. Very inadequately and very expensively.
I'm now an atheist involved, peripherally, in several Church groups because -- warts and all -- there's nothing imaginary about their support for each other and the wider, non-believing community around them. Respect is earned. Wisdom is knowing what matters... and what doesn't. #HappyClappyEmojiHere

That we need a sky fairy to have community, compassion and empathy says a lot about humanity and society, none of it good.

Jack has changed his tune from a year ago.

Well it doesn't take a genius to come to the conclusion that dorsey has come to.
I imagine dorsey is disappointiled that his "baby" is now run like this, but at the same time, there's few better people in the world than dorsey to take advantage of the **** up that is elon, and make a better version that everyone wants.
Bluesky is an OK name, but it sounds like a Internet company, rather than a product

Well, at least you're well balanced about all this, having a chip on both shoulders.
But why do people need to be scared of an imaginary being and his wraith/hell to be a good person?
People should just be good for the sake of being good.
People doing it because they are scared of their own fate is just depressing and further highlights their selfishness.
People SHOULD, doesn't mean they do. Humans are lazy, selfish, and destructive without intervention. Religion, to a degree, changes this and gives people a purpose. Just because someone should do something, doesn't stop them doing it, hence why were always at war, rape still exist, places are robbed, poverty exists, slavery exists.
As a whole religion is a good thing, because it tries to teach right from wrong or it utilises fear (heaven/hell and so on) to train humans to step away from being *****.

It WAS a good thing (in some ways....not all obviously as it has also created collosal conflicts and atrocities).
It is now antiquated, and quite obviously nothing more than fairy tales.

It can still be a good thing, theres just less utilising it.
It's more than the 'fairy tales' if you take focus off the God aspect.
