I had a co-worker recently tell me that religion is a drug and can be equally habit forming.

How come when religion is criticised, people resort to deflection and ad hominem of the messenger rather than critically examining their religion?

"You like things and yet you still feel justified in criticising religion? What a hypocrite!"

(also funny because a lot of self proclaimed religious people also love all those things)

That wasn't what I reacted to. Its the deleted post. I didn't quote it because it was bad. It compared religious indoctrination to teaching people that LGBT exists.

It's ok to have beliefs you can't back up, but at that point you no longer have room to preach or propagate those beliefs.

The bible isn't proof that god exists just like comic books aren't proof that Spider-Man exists.

it made sense when it was written and just because there are now more alternatives doesn't cause it to make any less sense now.

The funny thing is Karl Marx used opium. So I dont even think he was criticizing people who lean on religion. We all need something in our lives to cope.

marx wasn't a fan of religion but he wasn't condemning religious people when he said that, no. In the 1800s opium was used as a painkiller. he was calling religion a distraction to ease the pain of everyday life in a cruel system. it only gets harmful when you start to use the treatment as a cure
