    Many of us are predicting that #QAnon will evolve into a full-fledged religion. It's practically there.https://twitter.com/unormal/status/1350978337829740550 …

    Ultimately qanon gives people what most modern religious design does; a social ingroup that believes something strongly that the outgroup rejects strongly reinforcing the bonds of the ingroup. The centeal strong-but-absurd-to-an-outsider beliefs are a feature not a bug.

        I'm still searching for a distinction between religion and conspiracy theories. No luck so far. What, for example, does Q-Anon believe that's any more batshit than Noah's Ark?

        Only if you define a religion, or a ‘true’ religion in its most conservative fundamentalist matter. Even then, what is the conspiracy? They believe that their texts are the absolute true word of God.

        Not a fan of calling things‘religious’ that are not. It’s a way for atheist to take shots at groups they don’t like. The right wing libertarian atheist are calling other atheist ‘woke’ say they are practicing the religion of wokeness

        Well then Qshamen gets to live tax free. If I had a say religions who dabble in politicis should lose their first amend protections.

        It does operate entirely on belief despite the absence of tangible proof.
