I think anyone who is in a religion is a cultist to a degree, tbh. Why do you think I'm such a staunch atheist? It's impossible to avoid religious people, at this point. Doesn't mean I have to follow their beliefs.

what if i told you that angels were advanced humans and christianity, and all the religions, are cargo cults?
you know what a cargo cult is?
also, if the humans in question have mastered gravity and telepathy and teleportation, and maybe even seeing the future... then it may well be that they know about this problem of evil and are gonna show up, as they promised, and hold a full court day on the matter and put them all in the pit of a volcano.
this is why i think there has been this whole "nobody is coming to help us" meme going hard lately, because actually, they definitely are.
these are our great great great great ... great great ... great great grandpappies and grandmammies we are talking about. they will come for us.
i know that sounds crazy but that's the only rational way to explain all the evidence i have seen.
You're right. It does sound crazy. Which is why I refuse to believe it.
I've seen the lake of fire. Its not a volcano, its not on Earth and its horrid. I don't know what to say about timetraveling advanced humans, its certainly a possibility, but it still doesen't satisfy the first-mover theorem and I refuse to believe we exist because of an infinite regress. I have direct personal evidence of God at this point but I don't pretend to understand how he 'works'. I do expect we will be told when its acceptable.
