  • Also… the Amish, the Mennonites… they very much do have as part of their culture, which very much revolves around religion… that you more or less are a expected to, and by this cement that you are a good person of faith and character, that you help others by participating, often regularly, in work-gangs, to stand up at least the basics of barn or house, in what is a shockingly short amount of time, and done in a very high quality manner, with less technologically advanced tools than what is normal for others.

    Yeah. And this sort of attitude is common - or was common, at least - in religions from Islam to Buddhism to Mormonism. Good people support their communities. Wealthy people give back their wealth to the community in greater measure. From those to whom much is given, much is required.

    Reddit-type atheists? The ones who post edgy memes about religion being an evolutionary dead end and useless to humanity?

    This is why they’re wrong.
