What you’re seeing is unresolved trauma. Breaking away from religion can be an emotional, traumatic, socially isolating experience. And if people don’t put in the work to heal, it comes out like this.

“Shit I gave birth to a moron” is just straight up pretentious and has that fedora redditor energy thinking they’re superior to theists. Just let them have some sort of concept of god as a coping system. Doesn’t mean you’re better then them.

Yep, that edge is the trauma showing. Why would someone need to be edgy if they were confident? They still haven’t processed their issues and they need to.

That said, having religion as a coping mechanism is dangerous. One you believe something that large without evidence, you can be easily conned and manipulated. This is exactly what we see in America, and look how that’s going.

Which we are, at least when it comes to the field of believing in fairy tales well into adulthood.

It’s just social media being a retarded echo chamber of people who don’t get out much. The reality is most Christians AND atheists don’t give af about other’s beliefs; more occupied with living their own lives instead. Online has a lot of tribalism mentality.
