Yet where is that woman now? Tell me, in what heave does she reside? None of them. Because no God bothered to listen or care. If that is what you think it means to be a God, then you and all your teachings are welcome to do as that poor women did. And vanish from these realms forever.

The technology question really tripped me up. Silicon Valley is basically the worst thing in the world but obviously scientific progress is good. I guess I just don't think technology will free us as long as we exist in corrupt societal structures?

The thing is a lot of those structures exist because of superstition and tradition

It's why leftists should be anti-theist or recognized the holy books as the proto socialist works they were, but strip away the damned for eternity part

But stripping the conquered of their cultural identity, religion and traditions is a tool of the imperialists that facilitates genocide. Surely enlightenment can't be achieved by turning this weapon upon ourselves?

New religions and identities will be born of the collectivization of the species. Cults of rationality and humanity will replace those of the diety.

Any such collectivist cleansing will inevitably be imposed by a dominant culture shaped by its traditions and religious values, consciously or not, and will inevitably favor the like minded in their subjective definitions of what is rational. You're basically advocating for youtube atheism as the new model of humanity.
