Feeling superior
Post #1I do not follow any religion and feel superior to all that I have encountered, this feeling is very hard for me to deal with or understand.

Post #11I feel similar in the sense that my beliefs about the world can be anchored with proven facts while many religious beliefs cannot be proved.
However, I know for a fact that I cannot disprove that there is a God, so I don't ever let my personal feelings of superiority grow too strong, as I could be wrong.
Simply, I feel there's no way of knowing whether there is or isn't a God/s, so I'll just believe what I want and let the people who still believe that humanity started with a man made out of clay and a woman made out of a rib believe whatever they want, because if they're willing to believe something as outrageous as that then me patronising them won't make the slightest bit of difference to their powerful ignorance.
