When people say “why do you atheists don’t just leave religion alone”
This is why. This and because they try to dictate how others should live our lives. It seeps into government. And no, I will not stop. -

Interesting image. A sort of apostolic (or submissive, perhaps) bowing of their heads as they trudge (I’m betting they’re trudging) along reaching out to touch the guy in front, not sure what that signifies but they do it a lot on Trump, for instance. I’m curious if the cross is rolling on a wheel or wagon, guy is obviously not holding it up. Woman with 2 coffees next to him, *chef’s kiss*. -

I’m just blowing out my ass but it strikes me that in all those contexts and more this laying of hands is perhaps to facilitate the passage of magic jujube from the sacred center of whatever event is occurring. Hinduism has a similar thing called Darshan I think. One “takes Darshan” by being in the presence of a holy person or object. But don’t quote me.

Hello?) but they are always condemning “magic” or ancient native religions

A historian friend tells me that they all used to be way more open and acknowledging about sharing and trading in their magics. These days they get all pissy if you call them on it. -
