Even if god exists religion can't possibly be the way to god (lemmy.world)

So I thought about this in the shower amd it makes sense to me, like praying and stuff never worked for most people I know, so a direkt link to god gotta be unlikely. That made me conclude that religion is probably fake, no matter if there's a god or not. Also people speaking to the same god being given a different set of rules sounds stupid, so at least most religions must be fake.

Sure, for you. If a young single parent who is the only one who can support their child dies, at best they're hoping for nontraumatic foster care, but in many places, including first world countries, it can mean far worse for them. Still, I'll cede personal cancer for the sake of the overall point. That was hardly the worst issue in my comment.
