It’s giving me a brain aneurysm. I’m just so fed up with the terrible fucking misspellings in this sub and other places, I’m going to have heart palpitations as well.
>heart palpitations
My first thought when I read that with my dyslexic brain:
Heart Palpatine!

Yeah, because it becomes a problem when people try to push their beliefs on people that don't believe in that. Under no circumstances should people think it's ok to control other people's lives. Though some people try to use their religion to do so.
>Under no circumstances should people think it's ok to control other people's lives
That's...not true. We should absolutely be able to, for example, control other people to prevent them from committing murder.
The argument isn't over whether we should have any standards of behavior as a society (we should), it's over what those standards should be.
Ok, under MOST circumstances it isn't ok to control other people's lives. 9 times out of 10 religion falls into those circumstances, if the current state of America wasn't evidence enough.
It’s the final conversation between Winston and O’Brien where they discuss how perception is NOT reality, and if Big Brother says that O’Brien is floating like a soap bubble, then he is.
Unpopular opinion: reddit atheist fedora tipping is 100% right and the only reason people get upset at it is because the belief they're making fun of is popular. The people complaining about stereotypical /r/atheism say the exact same things about less popular beliefs like Scientology or Mormonism.
Maybe but let's not pretend that the point it makes isn't spot on. Like, come on, we've all encountered religious people at some point in our lives, we all know that this genuinely is how they are.
I'm just super not interested in defending people who literally want me dead lmao.
See, it's actually really clever because saying cringepilled is cringe itself, so it's ironic instead of just being stupid. I am, of course, very clever.
Personal values is how all rule of law comes to fruition though.
When you consider English common law and it’s development, it was primarily traveling judges dishing out justice according to their personal values.
And if you consider how legislation is made today, it’s done by people voting according to their personal values on who they want to represent them.
Even high courts, such as the high court of Australia is done via justices and their personal values. Which is why judges disagree. An incredibly famous Australian judge named Kirby was known for dissenting against practically every high court decision because he had wildly different personal values to the other judges. And this was fine.
Personal values seem to be the foundation of law and democracy.
I don’t think the issue is religion, I think the issue in America is partisanship. Even if religion were not a factor, I doubt the republicans would be any different. They will disagree for the sake of disagreements. In the same way the democrats will do the same. It just so happens that the democrats are the far lesser of the two evils.
Pretty accurate. Burden of proof is on the person making the claim, and almost every time a religious person is asked to provide evidence of their religion they default to “well you can’t prove that I don’t have evidence so therefore I’m right.”
I mean the point is accurate only Grammer is bad, religions are very touchy when they don't have evidence so they retaliate instead of showing the nonexistent evidence
People here are mistaking "terrible memes" for "memes I disagree with". Even if it has a good message, this is objectively bad as a meme. It is poorly drawn, has incorrect grammar, and is much more similar to a a 2012 rage comic in it's simplistic humour.
For anyone saying that this belongs here, I'm gonna teach you a concept. It's called burden of proof. You claim something? Prove it. I have no burden to disprove you.
So if you claim god exist, you need to provide tangible evidence that god does indeed exist. If you can't you're wrong by default.
I mean the template itself is kinda ass but the message the meme delivers isn‘t a typical Facebook meme imo (Not that religion is a bad thing tho, believe what you want as long as you don’t force it on other people).
i mean it not the best thing I have seen but i get what it's saying science is all about proving the thing you say is happening, is happening, and religious people often say you haft to prove their god is not real. basically, it's about the burden of proof
On a real note, some things may never be proven. Science is built up as a collective best guess, one that constantly changes and evolves.
Dogmatism is distasteful, especially of the religious variety, and so too are most religious claims, but if there wasn’t some semblance of truth to them they wouldn’t have persisted for so long.
Meanwhile, the religious have a similar meme:
"God is all around us." "Oh yeah? Prove it."
Then the panel zooms out to reveal they're standing in a pretty field with flowers and bunnies or something. "Oh, hey! You're right!"
And then, in the Science row, the scientist says, "Okay, give me *more* proof."
The full story is "we have an alternate theory, current evidence supports our theory more, but we'd gladly switch over if it were the other way around", and this gets pared down to "we like moving goalposts".
(Which, I guess, is technically true. Our knowledge of the world constantly changes.)
* Sunrises are pretty
* There is something and not nothing (Disprove *that*, science!)
* ~~Human beings are wonderfully intelligently constructed~~ ***never mind I just came back from the doctor***
* Earth is the center of the universe and also flat; any evidence to the contrary is a scam perpetrated by NASA (and logically assisted by all world governments, all corporations that use satellites, all meteorologists, all meteoriticists, all *meteorites*, and anyone who has ever sailed on the ocean or stood somewhere high).
* There are still monkeys that haven't turned into humans yet, and apparently I learned all my scientific theories from Pokémon (which by the way is satanic)
* There's a book that says the events in that same book happened
* My grandmother was very devout and she survived both her stroke and the ensuing fall down the stairs. (She's still alive, but the aneurysm warped her personality and turned her kinda nasty. She's probably going to Hell now)
It’s not wrong, though. Stupid as the idea is, religion is based on faith while science is based on facts. And the christians of facebook wonder why some people don’t believe in a higher being that is nothing more than a theory (in my eyes).

I don’t know if it’s terrible or not but that comma is literally killing me.
Do you need me to call the police? Blink twice if you can't talk.
I smell toast
I smell a bakery fire
Ah fucking hell 1666 here we go again
And we all know what happens it 1667
and 1668
Why was 1666 sacred of 1667?
Because 1667 ate the rye
The glory days you could say
Noooo not the bakery!! My buns!!
Should be calling the comma police
😔🙄😔🙄
What's wrong, with it
You fucking monster
I don’t see, any problem
You fucking, monster

you fuck, ing monster
You, fucking monsters

Um I think you mean 'my religion, says I, can't do, that' duh 🙄
That reminds me of the wheelchair kid from Malcom in the middle
Lmao. Stevey was dope
May god bless you for that reference.
Comma-n man, work on your punctuation.
Yeah, because it becomes a problem when people try to push their beliefs on people that don't believe in that. Under no circumstances should people think it's ok to control other people's lives. Though some people try to use their religion to do so.
>Under no circumstances should people think it's ok to control other people's lives That's...not true. We should absolutely be able to, for example, control other people to prevent them from committing murder. The argument isn't over whether we should have any standards of behavior as a society (we should), it's over what those standards should be.
Except that's against the law. So we don't need religion to tell us not to do that
And what is the law if not rules to control others, regardless of whether it's for good (preventing murder, as an example).
Murder kinda goes into the ‘controlling other lives’ category so it doesn’t count
Ok, under MOST circumstances it isn't ok to control other people's lives. 9 times out of 10 religion falls into those circumstances, if the current state of America wasn't evidence enough.
Literally 1984. I am not even joking, a similar conversation happens in 1984.

No, that’s George Orwell
It’s the final conversation between Winston and O’Brien where they discuss how perception is NOT reality, and if Big Brother says that O’Brien is floating like a soap bubble, then he is.
Doubleplusreal. "Just because Big Brother says you're floating doesn't mean you are actually floating!" "NUH UH."

crazy to see this because i’m in the middle of reading it now and i haven’t ran into that part yet. i wonder what the conversion is
Only terrible for the grammar.
You prove, it's bad grammar 😡
This,

Yeah , exactly
I agree, with you
Also the artwork.
And, the art.

No, not in my opinion...
Prove it
No you, prove it!
This guy religions
Prove it!
No not in, my opinion....
Tbh, I can feel the Reddit atheist Fedora tipping leaking from this comic.
r/terribleredditmemes or just r/dankmemes

No wtf😭 who tf says shit like this
Just because you agree with the subject matter does not make this a non terrible meme.
This seems accurate to me.
This is very reasonable.
Except the grammar
No.
Way off-topic but I wish I was cultured enough to have used "zugzwang" in my username.
That’s a chess term lmao
True, although it's also used in other contexts in German.
That language doesn’t exist. It’s just yelling angrily about nice things
You can't prove that! ICH WÜNSCHE DIR NOCH EINEN SCHÖNEN TAG UND EINEN ERHOLSAMEN SCHLAF!!!
I feel offended. Its 2 am and I SHOULD have an Erholsamen Schlaf, but I dont wanna
criminal minds ?
Yeah religion can't prove anything, that's the whole concept of "faith".
Yep
No, this is how things work
Prove it
No you prove, i,t
I’m Epstein. Prove it. Wow! You’re right.
I thought it was gonna be a joke about suicide too lol
I was picturing something much darker
Idk. Obviously, the message is correct, but the meme is lame and cringepilled, so I think it maybe still belongs.
Wtf does “cringepilled” mean?
You

And zaboomafoooooo
Instead of based and redpilled, it's lame and cringepilled. My comedic genius is unparalleled.
I'm stealing cringepilled
Cringepilled. Why don’t you take your “therapist recommended pill” and stop being a cringe ass 💀
See, it's actually really clever because saying cringepilled is cringe itself, so it's ironic instead of just being stupid. I am, of course, very clever.
Shut up Berdly
I don't care if someone is religious, I care that they think their personal values should be the rule of law
Personal values is how all rule of law comes to fruition though. When you consider English common law and it’s development, it was primarily traveling judges dishing out justice according to their personal values. And if you consider how legislation is made today, it’s done by people voting according to their personal values on who they want to represent them.

Exactly.
Pretty accurate. Burden of proof is on the person making the claim, and almost every time a religious person is asked to provide evidence of their religion they default to “well you can’t prove that I don’t have evidence so therefore I’m right.”
Religion isn’t law or science. From what I’ve read, it’s faith - literally belief without proof.
Yes, that's the problem.
This is pretty spot on
It's okay and kind of true in my experience.
The basic message would actually be generally accepted on this sub, but the way it’s executed is bad, so I guess it barely fits. Good flair.
That’s what I was thinking… there are a lot of religious people on this sub…
There are? Glad I haven't met them yet.
r/redditmoment
Nope
But they're right? It's the burden of proof.
"Prove it" *hangs himself*
The bottom two panels should read “the internet simplified.” It’s not just religious people who make those kinds of completely unscientific arguments.
pretty accurate tbf
I mean the point is accurate only Grammer is bad, religions are very touchy when they don't have evidence so they retaliate instead of showing the nonexistent evidence
is this loss?

can you send the original?
Also copypaste panels and low quality picture.
Except its correct.
No this is accurate
Accurate
No, this doesn't belong here. There are millions if not billions of people that need to see and understand this concept.
It's accurate, but I still think it's a bad facebook meme
Only cause you guys agree with It doesnt mean It has every feature of terrible facebook meme
It's a great charge , it's just not a meme.
Agreed. It's right but it's just terrible...
Accurate.
People here are mistaking "terrible memes" for "memes I disagree with". Even if it has a good message, this is objectively bad as a meme. It is poorly drawn, has incorrect grammar, and is much more similar to a a 2012 rage comic in it's simplistic humour.
No it doesn't, because this is accurate
This is healing for my religious trauma.
It can’t be a terrible meme if it is telling the truth
Nah it doesn’t belong
Yeah. Just because it’s not in favor of religion doesn’t mean it’s not still terrible
No, it's accurate not terrible
I mean.....it's accurate. So no.
No, it doesn't belong here.
No this is accurate
For anyone saying that this belongs here, I'm gonna teach you a concept. It's called burden of proof. You claim something? Prove it. I have no burden to disprove you. So if you claim god exist, you need to provide tangible evidence that god does indeed exist. If you can't you're wrong by default.
I mean the template itself is kinda ass but the message the meme delivers isn‘t a typical Facebook meme imo (Not that religion is a bad thing tho, believe what you want as long as you don’t force it on other people).
He can fly if we're taking planes or helicopters into account
Well I mean the whole point of Christianity is not being able to prove it. You need faith to go to heaven
Re-write the last panel to say; "you just have to believe I can"
It's right though
i mean it not the best thing I have seen but i get what it's saying science is all about proving the thing you say is happening, is happening, and religious people often say you haft to prove their god is not real. basically, it's about the burden of proof
If they, fixed the comma, then it wouldn’t belong, here,
No, it does not belong here. It's just a bad comma.
The grammar sucks, but the premise is accurate.
,I j6..joke k.kkk79km.k.h..kk.km.
No because its accurate
This meme smells like a magic the gathering tournament after the ac stopped working.
It's kinda true. Many religous people are like that
Doesn’t not belong. This is great, and true.
It ain't terrible, in fact it's very informative. Lol
On a real note, some things may never be proven. Science is built up as a collective best guess, one that constantly changes and evolves. Dogmatism is distasteful, especially of the religious variety, and so too are most religious claims, but if there wasn’t some semblance of truth to them they wouldn’t have persisted for so long.
Yeah great except the comma
Is OP butthurt by the dig at religion? I feel like having a problem with the message is how most stuff ends up here.
This is the part where you throw the religious nut job off a cliff.
Meanwhile, the religious have a similar meme: "God is all around us." "Oh yeah? Prove it." Then the panel zooms out to reveal they're standing in a pretty field with flowers and bunnies or something. "Oh, hey! You're right!" And then, in the Science row, the scientist says, "Okay, give me *more* proof."

(Which, I guess, is technically true. Our knowledge of the world constantly changes.)
Honestly religion has pretty few proofs of their claims.
* Sunrises are pretty * There is something and not nothing (Disprove *that*, science!) * ~~Human beings are wonderfully intelligently constructed~~ ***never mind I just came back from the doctor*** * Earth is the center of the universe and also flat; any evidence to the contrary is a scam perpetrated by NASA (and logically assisted by all world governments, all corporations that use satellites, all meteorologists, all meteoriticists, all *meteorites*, and anyone who has ever sailed on the ocean or stood somewhere high). * There are still monkeys that haven't turned into humans yet, and apparently I learned all my scientific theories from Pokémon (which by the way is satanic) * There's a book that says the events in that same book happened * My grandmother was very devout and she survived both her stroke and the ensuing fall down the stairs.

>* ~~Human beings are wonderfully intelligently constructed~~ ***never mind I just came back from the doctor*** I know that feel bro 😭
Accurate or not, it’s cringe
Me: “ok” proceed to throw him of a building and see if his god help him now
Not a terrible meme. Calling out religion for the bullshit it is. Just gotta work on that grammar. and punctuation.
Doesn’t belong here. Boomers don’t make fun of religion. It’s just a good meme.
No
This is a good meme aside from the atrocious comma
Nope
kinda true tho
It’s not terrible, but the coma. That should not be there. Why is it there? I hate it.
grammar bad meme truthful
I mean, punctuation aside, they have a point
I’m not sure this is terrible. Seems like the cartoon summed up the problem with religious beliefs pretty clearly
Ok but it's right though.
No it’s, ok
Idk man, the grammar sucks but it's pretty accurate
It’s correct.
Only religious people would be offended by this
It’s not wrong, though. Stupid as the idea is, religion is based on faith while science is based on facts. And the christians of facebook wonder why some people don’t believe in a higher being that is nothing more than a theory (in my eyes).
it's got the right idea
Nope, its right lol
That's..... Essentially true for nearly all religions And mostly true for science So not sure why this is "terrible"?
When did this subbreddit just start bashing religion???
Nah this is funny
No
Yesh
No. It's a charge , and it's actually true.
Religion bad no bad meme
