Not many people have a high opinion of religious people, and for good reason. But being cringy does not mean “you are wrong”, it means that people cringe when they have an experience you gave them. Whining about “religious persecution” is pretty pathetic and unnecessary. I have noticed you several times on this platform bringing up religion when it is completely irrelevant, exactly as you did here. Also, sidenote, given that almost no one who speaks english anyhow is worshipping many deities, it’s weird you always have to specify “monotheism” as if that’s a needed or relevant thing to specify. That’s like me claiming someone is anti-human because they are racist against me. It’s just a weird thing to focus on. In any case, maybe if you stopped randomly bringing up religion, people, tankie or not, would stop shitting on you for it. Just a thought.
I know they have their reasons, especially if they’re American because most big Trinitarian denominations would give Jesus an aneurysm, but that’s not me nor most people in the world who claim to be religious. And it is necessary, because Trinitarians think Jesus, a man, is also the Creator, and there’s also the Holy Spirit somewhere and that makes up their pantheon. And I just mentioned it because it’s true, because just by saying things like “oh thank God” people start getting uppity at times, nvm pointing things out while quoting the Qur’an or the Bible. It’s like you’ve forgotten where we are. You can tell me “just take the negativity and unnecessary hostility or leave, it is what it is, this is a Western space” and that’s inhumane but fair, but you can’t tell me it isn’t a thing.
Because US Christians usually think that or “GD” is taking the name in vain, when it’s really outwardly saying the right things and going to church while also lying, cheating, stealing from, human trafficking, selling poison to their neighbors is what that means. Fwiw, I’m well aware that according to the scriptures, Ismael’s seed was also blessed. Besides that, if you believe in a Creator/Creatrix, S/he created all or didn’t. That means if your sibling demonstrably desires to live in peace as your neighbor, then you are to live in peace.
I mean, I am a person and it happens to me. But regardless, all I said was “I’m too monotheistic and… for .ml”, which is true, and it was a single phrase in a long-ass post so I don’t think I was being too whiney or idk.
You’ve spent more words than me talking about it here… And monotheism is the framework through which I understand existence, it’s at the core of my moral beliefs and otherwise and not just decoration, so it makes sense it would come up a lot.
I certainly didn’t and typically wouldn’t bring up religion. You did.
it’s at the core of my moral beliefs
Not really. You don’t believe it’s wrong to kill people because a book or an entity told you so. You believe it because it’s obvious. Atheists probably hold 98% of the same morals. So no, there’s rarely a reason to bring it up. Yet I’ve observed you do so repeatedly. You even put it in your username. This is insufferable behavior tbh.

That is just not common. But even on the rare occasion where that were to happen, it’s weird to take it personally.

The truth is “I bring up religion constantly and people are annoyed by it”. Like you did here.

You’re triggered by something that’s as common as saying “hello” in my circles. I would recommend you block me so you don’t have to suffer more.
I’m telling you because most everyone else feels this way too. Self awareness is good to have.
