>your religion/etc.
Atheism bordering on anti theism.

>the religion/etc. you were raised with

Eastern Orthodoxy. I live in a former commie country and both of my parents never really gave a fuck about religion and only started doing so after the war because it was getting shilled by nationalists. I was being taugh religion at school but I started being cynical about it from the getgo because I was always bombarding my teacher with questions of why this why that… And I ended up really not liking the answers and was terrified by the concept of hell. And the teacher didn't like me either because of that. So whenever I went to church with my mom I felt really awkward and was always getting an ugly vibe while in there. I just really didn't like the atmosphere of anything religious. It was when I was 13 that I heard about the whole atheism thing on the internet and slowly began despooking myself from religion. Now I'm militantly anticlerical and when I started Higschool, I had this Metal chick in my class and we would always debate about all and everything with our religion teacher (who was also really chill)

Tl;dr I disliked religion from the moment I learned about it but believed out of fear until I found out that atheism was popular and dropped it completely.

>Current
I don't have one, don't even consider myself atheist either. Just completely detached from the very question to the point religiousity / irreligion can't be used as a descriptor for me. Maybe you can ask about spirituality, on which case I am more agnostic - don't dismiss the possibility of an afterlive in some form or another, though the way I see it would have nothing to do with spiritualism and just be hidden material reality of the universe, but not really a believer in "the vibe energy" or whatever.

One year, our scripture teacher for that year just claimed she didn't believe in Hell. Like, wut.
One of my friends in high school was devout as fuck eastern orthodox and also socialist, I think they went down the Jordan Peterson rabbithole afterwards, haven't talked politics with them high school but they'll always be anti-airstrike. mfw they got drunk and were telling someone a gay teacher was possessed by the devil or something.

Not for certain, but I'm 90% confident he's atheist. We never talked about it, I only (vaguely) remember a conversation when I was still young asking something about heaven and I think he explained that people have different opinions on whether it was real, and some occasional comments from mom that make me suspect he's agnostic or atheist as opposed to her. We own any bibles and I've never seen either pray.

None. All major religions are retarded. Something supernatural might exist, but it's irrational to believe it does until evidence is shown.
Actual evidence, not shit like shroud of turin or whatever.

>religion raised with
Catholicism in its most vile form.
Homophobic, tribal, focused on "defending the cross", with any good acts being completely incidental and massively overblown to "prove" that catholics are good.

>story
I actually coped pretty hard when I started realizing that christianity is bullshit.
I were too invested into it after years of regular going to church, hating on innocent people just because the religion says THEY BAD, guilt tripping myself over irrelevant shit while still allowing religious excuses for hate.
One of my childhood friends was an atheist and that helped me not think of atheism as ENEMY OF CHURCH WHO WANTS TO DESTROY US. I still thought of atheism as an enemy, but not as much.
Also, my OCD poked at all my copes and they couldn't "stick". It's like having a shitposter in your head who quotes the vulnerable parts of your post, says "lmao", debunks them using just your knowledge, refuses to post sojaks that would allow you to disregard him as just a shitposter, and appears every single time you feel doubt.

Unlike most kids in my area, a lot of whom in particular attended an extremely conservative Catholic church, my household was secular. My mom personally was Catholic, and my father a deist. I'm thankful for that because it gave me the ability to look at religion from an outside perspective.

>a relevant story
There was this one kid who was in a couple of my classes whom I knew reasonably well, who seemed to take it personally that I was an avowed atheist and that I could bring up parts of the Bible where god acted like a dick. Naturally, he became convinced that I thought all that because…I had been brainwashed by my parents into hating god, and started harassing me on facebook in order to save my soul. Which actually isn't the first time classmates have tried to do that, but he was by far the most persistent.

I call it that because for the most part I accept the basic premises of Gnosticism, but also adapt the idea of Lucifer as a symbol of rebellion/enlightenment against a decrepit old order. As Lucifer fights for freedom against the tyrannical Demiurge, so too does the socialist fight for the liberation of the working class against a sadistic capitalist system.

I was an edgy atheist in my teens, until i went to a christian retreat later in adulthood. At my Christian retreat i went to church three times at day and sang christian songs (once a day isn't enough, let alone once a week). then i felt the presence of God, it was a strange peace that came over me. My family also felt this peaceful presence at their retreats. It's very subjective and hard to use as evidence, so i don't, but it was something.

Those were orders to the isrealites, not for gentiles. At least for the "slaves obey your masters" part it was to make the best of your situation, and also slavery in biblical times was different from slavery in America. You could buy your freedom, and it was to pay back debt. Jesus also abrogated some of what was commanded of in the Old testament.

Was born into a Lutheran church, got out when I turned 18 so I didn't have to pay church tax. Was with the evangelicals for a few years until I became a secular atheist. I turned from social liberalism to anarchism along the way during my youth, so I wouldn't have fit in with them anyway. Did some volunteer work for them. They were very much like the American christian right in their views, frequently had such speakers in their events and are about as zionist as they come here.

I don't see why they have to be considered gods. Mortals are powerful, arbiters of destiny.

It's just as easy. You can even just recycle half the Christian trolling techniques.

They are not, the people is. Individuals are relatively powerless and can do absolutely nothing about anything without joining up with other individuals. Alone they are impotent, ignorant, but self-important and grandiose with the narcissism of individualistic ideology in capitalism.

>Mortals are powerful, arbiters of destiny.
Mortal men on their lonesome are no arbiters of anything let alone destiny, destiny is the arbiter of them until they come together as one to become THE arbiter of destiny, history and the world. Mortals are insipid bootstrap-pullers full of themselves who will never recognize the gifts the people bestowed upon them.

Individuals are born and killed, but the people is forever.

Thank you, I know. I am going to have to study Hegel and sacred scriptures of various religions to confirm this schizoism to have some sort of basis.
