Q:

What is religion to you?

Not what the scriptures say.
Not what your parents drilled in.
Not what society expects you to believe.

Just you.

Is it a guide? A cage? A ghost you still feel in your bones?
Is it love or fear? Truth or control?

Some say religion gives life meaning.
Others say it gave the powerful a mask to wear.

What is religion to you?

No dogma. No filters. Just what comes to mind.

    I hate that religion was used to scare me growing up, but I also miss feeling like life had a plan. It’s weird. You lose the cage, but also the map.

    Religion is power wearing a halo. Every time someone says God wants something, I ask who benefits. Religion to me is a system. And I don’t trust systems.

    Honestly? It’s a scam that just got really good PR. Used to be fear and fire, now it’s “community and values” but the goal is the same, control. The only difference is the marketing. I’ll pass.
