Whats the difference between conspiracy theorists and religious people?

[PortCityProphet]

Aint they all in the same boat?
Cause religion ain't shyt but theories right?

Preacher go up there and talk about a magical man turning water into wine = sane messenger

Random nikka on the internet saying that the CIA knocked off Kennedy=internet nut job

 

[Joe Budden]

As an atheist there’s no difference.

 

[Yinny]

No one Sky Daddy to talk about.

don’t be getting offensive after they had church yesterday though a few Christians inspire me to be a better person

Also religion are fables not theories (falsifiable, built on empirical evidence).

 

[Breh Obama]

The real conspiracy is that religion is a control and brainwashing system

 

[Stone Cold]

Everybody is a "conspiracy theorist" in their own way nobody has the absolute truth

 

[RARI_Godwind]

Religions are older

 

[Dafunkdoc_Unlimited]

Religions posit that there is a 'good' reason that EVERYTHING exists.

Conspiritards posit that only THEY know what's really happening and it's all 'bad'.

No, they aren't the same.​

Religion brings forth followship between it's practitioners and sometimes religious people really do be giving back by volunteering and going on missions and stuff. although some times they take it to extreme and will be violent or discriminatory against other groups. or just use the religion to grift money from people.
Conspiracy theorists have the same level of unfounded beliefs but with very little of the actions. they just shout their opinions to anybody that will listen and think that being correct about whatever is actually means something.

Conspiracy theorist also have fellowship amongst eachother.
And one can argue that nothing has caused more deaths in the entirety of human history than religion.

My dad grew up catholic.
He told me the catholic church biggest brainwashing operation ever.

 

[semicko82]

Religion has brought some good in this world
Conspiracy theorists on the other hand

 

[Umoja]

Depends on how religious the person is. For the most part, I would say the difference is cognitive dissonance and compartmentalisation.

Assuming the person isn't a religious fanatic, they're able to apply sense and logic to other topics.

You take a look at someone who believes the Earth is flat, there is nothing there. The mind is feeble and weak.

 

[analog]

Humans have been getting slaughtered in the name of a mystical God since that shyt was first conjured up.

Conspiracy theorists have been harmless by comparison

people saw Jesus die and comeback to life

[Jeshaman]
