Pretty much. Could be Christianity, or Buddhism, or anything really, even being addicted to health and fitness, but they’ve got a giant gaping hole in their brains that SJW postmodern nonsense fills to give their lives meaning. If they didn’t have that, they would have nothing.
What would define morality if not for some greater power, whether you call it Buddha or God or you believe in karma and reincarnation? Legitimate question here.
Can you justify any act as being wholly moral or wholly immoral without having to look at it outside of the perspective of humanity? You might say that your morals can be deduced through logic, but not everyone has the same reasoning capabilities as you nor do they have the same views on life as you. Without a higher authority or being, who is to say that your set or code of morals is right or whether someone else's might be correct?
I'm not saying you can't be a moral atheist. Especially in today's day and age you certainly can be. But I think it takes an astounding amount of naivety and ignorance to believe that human beings would eventually come across the firmly established moral code we live with now without religions, both ancient and current, driving the philosophy behind those morals.
Your comment is ignorant, like much of your post history. You have commented before supporting censorship, banning contraceptives, and denouncing individualism (ironic from someone who hates Marxists)
Gee, maybe it’s because I’d rather not have degeneracy and subversive content being allowed to RUIN our society (edit: and, might I add, EVERY SINGLE SOCIETY in some form or another has had censorship of subversive or counter cultural ideas. Rome has the censor and in the first years of our republic we had blasphemy laws), we need to increase the native birth rate and make sure, if you try to have sex out of wedlock, you don’t get to have it “risk” free (nevermind the spiritual and mental wounds it causes), and individualism is basically atomization of society and the so called “Right” (basically classical liberals, not true right wingers) allowing it to be picked off one by one. Even if we accept individualism, please not it only works in homogenous societies. Do we look fucking homogenous to you?
I’m for 100% free speech, which includes the right to be racist. However, be prepared to accept the consequences of your speech. For example, I was fired from academia for “wrong-think”. It sucked at the time, but it ended up being the best thing that ever happened to me. This dude is getting downvotes, which is meaningless. If you look at the new account, it is interesting to see it is a few days old and anti-Jewish. That doesn’t concern me so much, as my best friend is a Jewish lawyer and he is anti-Jew. Still, it’s not everyone’s thing, so be prepared for downvotes and don’t complain about imaginary internet points.
I’m interpreting anything literally meaning anything like a hobby or something they are passionate about or even just purpose. They lack all of them and put their whole being into being woke or an sjw so all they have is just that it is their entire identity. You don’t have to be religious to be a good person. I’m catholic but wouldn’t say non religious or people of other religions have to be catholic.

No. Just Christianity. Only Christ can save the wicked.
Edit: What’s with all the downvotes?
Don't have to be Christian to have logical and consistent morality. Just can't be a leftie.
Oh it is absolutely a very big and influential part of our history and only a statue-toppling commie would deny that.

I wouldn't worry about it tbh. With so many users there are bound to be people who disagree or are cuck voting.
You are being downvoted because shills are here. That or .win let way too many redditors on here. I always knew it is a mistake.

"Your comment is ignorant" only libcucks talk like that...

That’s what you believe and that’s ok I’m also religious but don’t believe that. We can have different beliefs.
or Climate doomsday
Deep down they know they have no sense of meaning. That’s why they try to make everyone else around them as miserable as they are
