re: view on christianity
With the immense focus on guilt, it feels like it was preprogrammed to escalate into a cult. You are guilty from birth, and you must do this to be saved.
It's just geniusly engineered to become cultish.
Especially after I learned that the concept of the original sin that's so harped on in christianity seems to not be a thing in Islam and Judaism? I don't know if that's entirely true, I read it on tumblr I think. I also generally am not very well-read on Christianity at all but the constant theme of everything is that you are guilty and must be forgiven or saved. No matter what you do, Jesus has to save you, you have to find him to be saved.
