Mx. Luna CorbdenThis is a long way to say: If you don't understand the effects of cognitive dissonance, and don't unpack your own internal contradictions, you can be more easily manipulated into behaviors and beliefs you would not *consciously* agree with.If you like free agency and are a big fan of free will, this is the sort of thing you need to work on.<a href="https://defcon.social/tags/philosophy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#philosophy</a> <a href="https://defcon.social/tags/atheism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#atheism</a> <a href="https://defcon.social/tags/theism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#theism</a> <a href="https://defcon.social/tags/exvangelical" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#exvangelical</a> <a href="https://defcon.social/tags/exvie" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#exvie</a> <a href="https://defcon.social/tags/exmormon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#exmormon</a> <a href="https://defcon.social/tags/exmo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#exmo</a> <a href="https://defcon.social/tags/ReligiousTrauma" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ReligiousTrauma</a> <a href="https://defcon.social/tags/AbuseCulture" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AbuseCulture</a>

Mx. Luna CorbdenTheological concepts like "The Problem of Evil" aren't just atheist gotchas. The contradictions within certain theologies can exist unawares within the minds of believers, causing dissonance that comes out in ways that perpetuate and allow harms to continue.For instance, even if a Christian believer has not consciously considered the Problem of Evil, they will still feel this contradiction whenever it is encountered:1. God is good. 2. God is omnipotent. 3. God allows evil to exist.They will have many sideways methods of resolving this discomfort, which will vary from person to person and from situation to situation.They may, for instance, lean on Just World views (the feeling that the world is automatically fair and so if someone is disadvantaged they must have done something to deserve it) when it comes to LGBTQ issues. God is good, and omnipotent, so if a queer person is suffering, it isn't because their church community has stigmatized them or because church doctrines about God's will are wrong (or further, that God might not exist or might not be good), no it must be proof that being queer is sinful and they deserve their suffering. This same formula applies in many other areas, including towards abuse victims.The contradictions within many popular forms of theism are not harmless. They get resolved, usually unconsciously, by organizations and individuals. When they are resolved without mindful consideration of the consequences, people get hurt.For abusers and powertrippers? This is by design, to their benefit, and more likely to be conscious.<a href="https://defcon.social/tags/AbuseCulture" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AbuseCulture</a> <a href="https://defcon.social/tags/ReligiousTrauma" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ReligiousTrauma</a> <a href="https://defcon.social/tags/exmo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#exmo</a> <a href="https://defcon.social/tags/exmormon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#exmormon</a> <a href="https://defcon.social/tags/exvie" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#exvie</a> <a href="https://defcon.social/tags/exvangelical" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#exvangelical</a> <a href="https://defcon.social/tags/theism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#theism</a> <a href="https://defcon.social/tags/atheism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#atheism</a> <a href="https://defcon.social/tags/philosophy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#philosophy</a>

☭ 𝗖 𝗔 𝗧 ☭I'm now an apatheist (actually, I've been one for a while now, but I just found out what apatheism is). I just don't care about arguing with people about if god exists or not. It doesn't matter. If god exists, it clearly can't or won't do anything. If it doesn't, then it doesn't. Who cares!?There are serious problems (capitalist oppression and exploitation, climate change, racism, sexism, etc) that we should be focusing on instead. <a href="https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apatheism" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apatheism</a><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/atheism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#atheism</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/theism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#theism</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/god" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#god</a>
