Shadowy man depiction of QAnon
Meet your new faith leader?

A new poll from the Public Religion Research Institute (PRRI) found that the QAnon conspiracy theory – a core belief of which is that a group of “Satan-worshipping pedophiles” are pulling the strings of the country – is believed by some 15% of Americans. If that number is accurate, it would make this world view more widely believed than several major faiths. 

What was once a fringe conspiracy theory borne on the furthest reaches of the internet is now mainstream. Put another way: more Americans believe in a shadowy cabal of elites that worship Satan and cannibalize children than believe in Judaism, Islam, Buddhism, Hinduism, and Mormonism put together.

So, is QAnon the newest big religion?

A New Faith in Town

The pollsters were flabbergasted at their own findings. 15% of the US population really believes in an unhinged conspiracy theory? Robby Jones, founder of PRRI, told the New York Times in an interview that “if [QAnon] were a religion, it would be as big as all white evangelical Protestants, or all white mainline Protestants. So it lines up there with a major religious group.”

That analysis is correct. Per a Pew study on faith in America, Evangelicals make up about 25% of the US population, Catholics make up about 20%, and Mainline Protestants make up roughly 15%, putting them about on par with QAnon.

Non-Christian faiths make up about 6% of the population, meaning that QAnon truly dwarfs them, as it is nearly three times more popular in this country than all of them put together.

Of course, in most cases, it took these faiths thousands of years to amass followings that large. QAnon amassed that many followers in four short years. The mysterious "Q" (after whom the movement is named) didn't first post online until late 2017. Q has also gone global – there are reportedly adherents of this ideology as far as Latin America and Europe.

While perhaps a bit informal, this belief system still mimics many aspects of religion. A mysterious central figure, cryptic prophecies, fanatical believers who dissect and re-dissect every word.

QAnon adherents even utilize Christian language, referring to “Great Awakenings” and “Storms” that sound like events straight out of Revelations. They also frame their battle against the cannibalizing, Satanic cabal as a fight of good vs evil – a theme common in many religions. 

What's Next?

Despite many fantastical claims, there have been no miracles performed under the banner of QAnon.

While the enthusiasm still appears to be strong, some wonder how long these believers will keep the faith if "Q" doesn't eventually reveal himself – or somehow pull the curtain back on the supposed Satan worshippers. 

However, even if the movement does fizzle, it certainly does say something about the times we live in that a conspiracy theory could, essentially overnight, become more popular than major religions that have existed for thousands of years. 

Could this movement be a guide for what faiths of the future might look like, or is QAnon just a passing fad? What is your reaction?

    Actually, the Info on Q is so far off base that you all are doing all left turns. First of all Q only gives you questions so that you do your own research. Second Q is not a cult not is it a conspiracy. it's an information board that allows to seek truth. As far as it being satanic.WRONG. Q and it's followers are deeply religious and hold faith in God and Jesus. consistently tells all to pray. Using Gods plan so greatly outlined in the Bible. You should never comment nor Judge that which you don't understand or have deeply researched. Like if you research using very little effort. You will find that out Hollywood icons, political actors , social media, big tech as well as the Vatican are involved in human trafficking and in the process of implantation of Agenda 21, to depopulate the earth to five hundred million people so they can control them. Do believe it? NATO website has in plain sight as well as in the lobby and Georgia guide stones. Also only Freemasons with elite power and wealth are involved. Not all Masons are involved. Looking at what I'm reading not one of you has done any research. Do some real research and you will find that the wool has been pulled over our eyes. National archives, library of Congress and many other sources and you will find history is not what you have been taught in schools. Q only shows you how and where to look to find the truth. Remember if you are truly reading the Bible and believe it to be true. Judge not and ye shall not be judged. You are passing Judgement on Q without doing real research. Only what mainstream media , gossip and hearsay and fear of the unknown.if you do actual research you will find that human and child trafficking has been going on in mass for hundreds of years. Did you know they found trafficked adults and children dead and alive onboard Evergiven. The ship that blocked the Suez . Look up adrenochrome and how it made. It blood drawn from a child's adrenal gland at the time when the child is most scared. Hollywood, political actors, billionaires all were taking the drug that made them feel young again. Conspiracy no more. Don't believe it? Look it up. These are things that have been hidden that now are being brought out. If you think I'm wrong or part of Q. How is truth a cult? Stop listening to mockingbird media . You must do your own research and do it deeply and accurately. Also no such thing as Qanon. Only Q and anons that do the research. The only reason I speak this way. I don't believe what mainstream, political actors, Hollywood or even Q until I do my own research. I only believe God Jesus Christ and the Bible as the truth. Not to be mean or angry because I'm not angry just tired of people labeling things falsely or not researching properly then putting out conclusions that are tally wrong. If you want email me and I will go over the places you can look to find the truth

      If you actually did research you'd realize how much of Q's conspiracy theories are based on old anti-Semetic myths which is unsurprising when this conspiracy started on image boards populated by neo-Nazis and White Nationalists.

    Did I not hear somewhere that bs like this is popular with uneducated people. Clearly the rolling bs simply overpowers any effort at common sense. By now, if there was even a shread of evidence, law enforcement would be all over it. What kind of brain believes this kind of stuff. Oh yea, flat earth type brains. Did I not also read somewhere that one of the "endearing" qualities of the, eh, less than gifted; tend to believe that thier thought processess are superior to normal IQ people.

    Equally disturbing, is the failure of society to have exposed this bs for what it is.

    I for one am willing to sacrifice a "little bit" of freedom for security. And maybe even a little more for the ability to live life without exposure to utter fuuuuing nonsense.

    Edit- I guess some folks just think that as long as these people are persueing bs, they are not a serious issue. True enough likely. But contaminating everywhere they go.

    It's not exactly a spiritual issue. The explanation has little to do with the merits or shortcomiings of multivarious belief systems. The answer is as simple as the people involved; they are stultifyingly stupid. Approximately 32 million adults in the United States can't read, according to the U.S. Department of Education and the National Institute of Literacy. The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development found that 50 percent of U.S. adults can't read a book written at an eighth-grade level. Global studies by the Cato Institute place the U.S. 16th in national aggregate intelligence. What are we to make of this? Americans are, generally, STUPID. As anyone whose job involves dealing with the public on a daily basis can tell you. Look at the politicians they elect. Look who they elected president - Trump, a moronic sociopath obsessed with women, Russians and Diet Coke. Or, to quote Stephen Ryder: "One doesn't appreciate their own native intelligence until they deal with truly stupid people."

      First thing I would like to bring to your attention is: I graduated with Honors from college. SOOOOO I am not illiterate by any term you could possibly come to.

      Second thing I would like to bring to your attention is: Trump won the 2020 election and you are going to see that very soon. GOD Wins this battle with evil! Trump will return as our true President!

      Third thing I would like to bring to your attention is: You had better repent and get right with GOD before time gets away from you. Which means you should make amends with people you have alienated.

      Remember that Q and the Anons love you and are praying for you and others like you to wake up and see the truth that GOD Wins!

      What I see in the comments here is a lack of tolerance and a refusal to look at evidence that correlates to the truth of the situation. Those who have joined the "cult of the mask" have probably joined by mistake and are just running with it lest they admit they played into the biggest lie since 9-11. Those that believe that the Q drops are based in fact and truth have seen compelling evidence pertaining to satanic pedophilia in government and religion, as have I. To refuse to look at evidence that disagrees with your belief is a sickness of the mind. A mind that is in total fear and closed off from the possibility that the answer to the question will blow your reality to pieces. You cannot even consider it because if it's true your reality ceases to exist. Simply put, it's cowardly NOT to look at the evidence while children disappear daily and not ask where TF are they disappearing to? Example: "conspiracy theorists" have said all along that the virus was man made and escaped from Wuhan either by accident of on purpose, we were denigrated, marginalized, canceled, called names and worse. Yet the truth is Fauci and government have been lying all along and KNEW it came out of a lab. So just keep your heads buried in the sand and protect your version of reality until they come for you and metaphorically tell you to "get in the boxcar, it'll all be over soon."

    Q on 4 chan in 2017 I guess but I am sure the Q thing was going on at Godlikeproductions a good year before that, most certainly well before the election because the chatter was ABOUT the elections and how Trump had been chosen to be the candidate and winner. Over 2015-2016 there was a movement that took over not only that site that had been building but also sites like Natural News around that time shortly before primaries all those sites took a simultanious hard right turn that shocked me. The Q phenominum was an orchestrated planned event. It's purpose looking at it nows seems to be to destroy the American democracy. Best guess it was designed by former KGB guy Putin who has waited all these years to exact revenge on America for the fall of the Soviet Union and take back what he thinks is his country righful place as a world super power. The quick turn of so many site's owners says some were setting up a following intending to take this turn perhaps others were blackmailed or coersed into it. Claeraly the behavior of some members of congress inddicates they are acting under some sort of duress or blackmail. As for spirituality the group most drawn to this are far right Christians they are the extemist wing of Christianity and cross multiple denominations.

      The author of the article is pretty clear (twice) on the numbers and what specific religions are being compared . What is f'ing sad, as you put it, is this is part of the problem...jumping to opinionated conclusions, skewing and spewing off the cuff with negativity and derision. Filtering out anything that doesn't fit your own angry paradigm. Be better.

      1. Matthew Beckett's Avatar Matthew Beckett

        Replying to my own earlier reply to correct something: the author makes it clear more than twice, not twice. Sorry about that, but facts do matter.

        Yes, the author is crystal clear on the numbers, and his conclusion does not fit math. Seems you're as lacking in basic arithmetic skills as he is.

        Go get some more exercise and jump to some more conclusions.

        1. Matthew Beckett's Avatar Matthew Beckett

          I can't believe I'm taking time to cut and paste DIRECTLY from the article itself, bit here goes:

          "If that number is accurate, it would make this world view more widely believed than several major faiths."

          "Put another way: more Americans believe in a shadowy cabal of elites that worship Satan and cannibalize children than believe in Judaism, Islam, Buddhism, Hinduism, and Mormonism put together."

          " “if [QAnon] were a religion, it would be as big as all white evangelical Protestants, or all white mainline Protestants. So it lines up there with a major religious group.”"

          And author elaborates further:

          "The pollsters were flabbergasted at their own findings. 15% of the US population really believes in an unhinged conspiracy theory?"

          "and Mainline Protestants make up roughly 15%, putting them about on par with QAnon." Which follows his mentioning the percentages of other Christian religions, but in context, is referring to the statement right above it about Mainline Protestants... that's what context is for. He's not adding all the percentages together.

          "Non-Christian faiths make up about 6% of the population, meaning that QAnon truly dwarfs them, as it is nearly three times more popular in this country than all of them put together."

          Nowhere in there does it say it imply what you said:

          "25%+20%+15% = 60% of population that believes in/practices a mainstream christian religion"

          And:

          "And he or she enumerated and explained the denominations to which he or she referred - Evangelical, Catholic, & Protestant."

          Clipping out of context, and presenting what you want to hear , is not a good argument on any stage. This isn't even up to par with a basic high school debate team.

          What truly baffles me is the omission in your rant of the "Judaism, Islam, Buddhism, Hinduism, and Mormonism" statement in the article. Pretty specific...as is the specific, "Mainline Protestants" part. The author actually compares QAnon to both groups, as the Mainline Protestants are at 15% and the whole list of non-Christian religions are fare outweighed by the 15% as a whole.

          And your little snide remark, "Seems you're as lacking in basic arithmetic skills as he is." is both out of line, and completely disregarding the specifics of the article and the context itself.

          1. Minister Mike's Avatar Minister Mike

            That's a lot of blather that says nothing. But, that's what blather is - a group of words without any real meaning.

            The headline states that Q is more popular than many major religions. - True, if the numbers for individual religions are the only accepted numbers.

            However, the writer went to great pains to bring up more numbers, probably in an attempt, like you, to hide the insignificance of any of the numbers.

            15% of Americans believe in Q. 66% of Americans believe as per one or more major religions.

            Do it any way you want, but 15 does not exceed 66. Never has, never will.

            At the end of the day, though, your inability to perform that basic arithmetic means nothing. The issue of the article, as convoluted as the writer tried to make it, is nonsense with no correlation to day-to-day living.

            I is apparent you are one of the devout Q'rs. And that's your right, but it does not change the laws of mathematics. Never has never will.

    We have to llok at the definitions of the words: religion, spirituality and cult. A religion has to do with what system of spirituality one follows. OK, so then what is spirituality? It is the relationship, however expressed, that one has with the Divine/Eternal. A cult is hidden, and only members may participate in its meetings. This Q thing does not sound like a religion or a cult; it is certainly not a system of spirituality.

    Freemasonry could qualify as a cult.

    60% and 15%; this whole article is a non-sequitur.

      Obviously you know nothing of Freemasonry, besides what Q has told you. A Freemason must declare a belief in deity before he can become one. Other than the belief, it is a Masonic offense to discuss religion or politics in the lodge. Freemasonry is base on relief, brotherly love and truth. No atheists nor religious libertines can be Masons. As with many on this thread, know of what you speak before making blanket comments.

        I was married to a Mason, (who has passed away) and I have been in the buildings with the masonic bible that is the KJV that sits in the center of the room. I have my late husbands Masonic bible and all the hand books.

        Your claim is false 100% about the discussion of of religion and or politics in the lodge. I personally have been inside the lodge when both were being discussed. These things were both discussed by a Baptist Preacher who was a Mason.

        Now ask me if I think the lower masons are good people and believe that masons do good things?...The answer is yes. Do I believe that they are deceived?... The answer is yes. Do I think that anything hidden by them will be brought to light?... Yes I Do, for GOD tells us so in the Bible.

        Any structure built on secrets will fall before the LORD our GOD. That includes Freemasons. Government, Skull and Bones, Illuminati, you name it and it will FALL. GOD WINS!!!

    It seems to me that Q-anon does not meet enough of the criteria to be considered a religion in and of itself. The same things could be said of psychology or dentistry for that matter. According to LearnReligions.com, the defining characteristics of a religion include: 1. Belief in Supernatural Beings 2. Sacred vs Profane Objects, Places, Times 3. Ritual Acts Focused on Sacred Objects, Places, Times 4. A Moral Code With Supernatural Origins 5. Characteristically Religious Feelings 6. Prayer and Other Forms of Communication 7. A World View & Organization of One’s Life Based on the World View 8. A Social Group Bound Together by the Above

    Most recognized religions of the world include at least 5 or 6 of these basic characteristics. I prefer to think of Q as a sect of Americanism, which includes
    all of them. Our National Religion, for example has: 1. The Founders and the Framers 2. The Flag vs. the Mexican flag 3. Pledge of Allegiance, Football games, 4th of July, Thanksgiving, etc. 4. Ten Commandments, Bill of (God-given) Rights, Declaration of Independence 5. At the flag-raisings, military funerals, parades, and speeches 6. Pledge of Allegiance, patriotic hymn-singing (God Bless America, etc.), social media groups (every church has one now) 7. Self-evident. This and #8 are why we are even discussing the topic.

    And then there is the question of the Disney-Marvel Universe. Is THAT a religion, too?

    If they want to believe it let them. Its no different then Atheists demanding their own priests and churches in the Military, now why in the hell would someone who does not believe in a deity or religion want a church when they could do the same thing in a local bingo hall!

    1. Lionheart's Avatar Lionheart

      Thanks Daniel but atheism isn't a religion. An atheist is just someone who lacks belief in the existence of any god, or gods, due to insufficient evidence of the claim that a god is real, perhaps a bit like your atheistic belief of other religions gods, unless you believe in them all.

        Sorry lionheart but Atheism and Humanism HAVE been ruled a religion by the US Supreme Court. And if it isnt a religion then why are they demanding a church and religious leaders?

          Thanks Daniel. Their statement saying “ Atheism must be treated like a religion under the First Amendment” is for the purposes of the First Amendment.

          This doesn’t make it a religion, and their statement is only applicable for the United States.

          “Recognized religions” are generally noted to be as such, no matter which country one is in around the world.

    The same group of people even tried to convince music fans that two musicians didn’t commit suicide, but rather murdered. One died in a hotel room and hotel staff would not even let the guy’s friend into the room due to hotel policy, doubt they are going to allow a complete stranger in his hotel room. The other died in his home and unless it was a robbery gone wrong, no stranger would commit a murder in a private residence. What those idiots don’t realize is the one who died at home HATED TRUMP.

    I’m not surprised at all that 15% of the population is a member of Q. I’m actually surprised the number isn’t higher! So many evil people in this world! Devil worshippers have always been around. Now they just aren’t hiding like before.

        Didn’t you hear Trump say he is against violence, then promoted violence? Too many more examples to mention. This is how it works.

          I believe you have that information all wrong.

      Devil worshippers are just good regular folk, these Q people are paranoid and destructive...way different from religions.

      1. Tammy Sue Peck's Avatar Tammy Sue Peck

        How are they destructive? How are they Paranoid? I agree it's not a religion, and they are definitely not devil worshipers.

        I follow the Q post, and I feel less afraid since the post lead me to read the bible and understand GODs Word. I know that Jesus Christ is my Savior and the only way to the LORD is through Jesus Christ.

        Have you read the Q post? I assume (I apologies if I am wrong) that you have not. Please research the subject before you claim to know what you speak of. Engage people that follow the Q post and then you will understand something very amazing. Their LOVE for their fellow man/women is as commanded in the 10 Commandments. Their LOVE of you as their Brother/Sister in Christ is amazing.

        Q is not about Trump or the government. It;s about Right and Wrong according to GODs Word. Awaking the world to the need of Jesus Christ to SAVE all humanity.

        1. Rev. Dr. G. Waldron's Avatar Rev. Dr. G. Waldron

          Yes you made the point; it is a relgion.

          1. Tammy Sue Peck's Avatar Tammy Sue Peck

            Q is not a Religion, BUT, Jesus Christ is.

            If Q can lead people to Jesus Christ, is that not a good thing?

            I don't know anyone that worships Q.

            I worship Jesus Christ.

            1. Tammy Sue Peck's Avatar Tammy Sue Peck

              Sorry I wish to make a correction, Jesus Christ is not a religion. Jesus Christ is our Savior. Jesus Christ did not create religion (man did).

        2. Rev Mark D's Avatar Rev Mark D

          Yes you are wrong. So as you said, you owe me an apology Tammy Sue.

          1. Tammy Sue Peck's Avatar Tammy Sue Peck

            I will not apologize for telling the Truth.

            Just as I won't apologize for not getting a vaccine, or wearing a mask which the world is now finding out that the conspiracy of man made PLANDEMIC (it was planned over 10 years ago) is actually not a conspiracy and the fact that now the truth of mask actually stopping nothing is now coming to light.

            Covid is a man made control mechanism against We The People. And guess what ??? Millions are falling for it, they are too LAZY and BRAINWASHED to see it.

            Every Sheeple that continues to dis-believe will have a really rude awaking very soon. GOD Wins!

            GOD is working in our world right now to save all that will come to him through JESUS CHRIST.

      Yes Nicholas, the Bible is the least read best seller. Few thoroughly read it. They just like to say they own one, like some children like to say they own Harry Potter books, though in children's cases they do read them and understand them.

        Many buy several the Jimmy Swag-art fans buy dozens every-time he turns on the tears begging for money . millions of copies get tossed in trash cans at motels .

        Because a group puts them there in hopes someone will actually read more than 1 passage out of thousands .

        Swaggy puts out one that tells them what to read and how to believe what it says but ignores the rest of the book and chapter that actually says do not do it that way .

        Many groups buy large lots of them to give to prisoners that accept them hoping parole board will see it as a Ingot religion so am rehabbed and should be released.

        so yea lots of sales but few used .

        There are over 300 + books known to exist that could be placed in the today's Bible, but the 60 that make it up today have been picked over 2000 years or so to give it its basic under-laying theme. So reading the current bible from cover to cover is not necessary to understand the basic theme of the word! One should consider the bible a sort of Library of sorts and not a true book as such! So reading is randomly can be very enlightening. Thats the main reason those 60 books were chosen to be in the book/library in the first place.

    God is our creator and mighty savior.......can we just get along as brothers and sisters out of respect and love for each other?. Everybody is special and wonderful in its own way and image. We all are entitled to our difference of opinions and ideology. Let us not forget about the privileges and freedom rights that are given to us in this country. We have freedom of speech and freedom of religion in America. I chose to pray for all my brothers and sisters. We must unite our hearts and souls for the common well-being of the people If we share our friendship ,love and peace among one another, maybe we can reconcile and learn to live in harmony once more. These are hard times we are facing now a days and we should cooperate been tolerant with empathy. Together in unity we are children of the universe. Pastor: Juan Alatorre. God bless Everybody

    1. Lionheart's Avatar Lionheart

      Thank you Juan. I agree with your sentiments, apart form you stating "god is our creator and mighty savior" of which there is no demonstrable evidence to support that claim. Other than that, you are right in saying we need to come together to support one another in love and friendship. 🤗

  1. Joanna Whitney's Avatar Joanna Whitney

    Q anon is a controlled opposition psy op designed to keep the patriot from action- however there is a satanic elite group running the world- that part is true- and in their religion they believe in human sacrifice and pedophilia

    1. Matthew Beckett's Avatar Matthew Beckett

      Ah, "the patriot" kool-aid...mmm...tasty.

  1. Tammy Sue Peck's Avatar Tammy Sue Peck

    Well I have to say that Qanon is defiantly not a religion, for one there is Q and then there are Anons. This is Biblical, and when the article says Good Versus Evil, and that's a fact. Every day humans face the issue of right and wrong on a daily basis or Good Versus Evil. So I think the article really doesn't understand what the movement is.

    Most Anon's that follow Q are Jesus Christ saved and follow Q due to the fact that all you have to do is look around and see that Right is now Wrong and Wrong is now Right. Everything seems to be following the bible and specifically Revelations. If you bother to read the Q post than you will see there is zero violence or hate or racism. Its about uniting and getting right with Jesus Christ, and helping the other people around us to see that we need the LORD Jesus Christ more now than we have ever needed before.

    I feel sorry for people that want to twist a great message.

    1. Dennis Paul Shipman's Avatar Dennis Paul Shipman

      Tammy, Jesus would denounce Qanon. Remember, he said "The truth shall set you free".

      1. Tammy Sue Peck's Avatar Tammy Sue Peck

        Where has Q lied? Jesus would embrace the fact that Q states truth about him (Jesus Christ) is being brought to light.

        Also, there is no Qanon. There's Q, and then there are Anon's.

        Q says that the Truth will Set you Free and to pray for the Truth to come to Light.

        So you need to read the Q post to understand that it is Biblical .

        Wake Up little Sheeple!

          Ermm! Not my knee. It would be nice though if there was some solid evidence that this Jesus fellow really existed along with the stories and tales.

          It would be a shock wouldn't it if we actually find out that when we die we have to bend our knee to Allah, or Vishnu. Personally, I quite like the Lord Krishna fellow, or Osiris.

          Thanks for your thoughts though Tammy

      My biological father, as I like to call him, was "Jesus saved," too. Such a good man. Beat his first wife until she was unrecognizable. Sent his third wife to the hospital, where her body shut down some basic functions from extreme stress. Good times and good people, them there Jesus saved ones. Don't even get me started on the killin' for Jesus throughout history thing. Holier than thou, it seems.

      1. Tammy Sue Peck's Avatar Tammy Sue Peck

        Matthew Beckett,

        I am so sorry that you experienced that with your bio-father. As you know in any group there are the good, the bad and the ugly all mixed in with the good. I can see that it has colored your vision of those of us that Love Jesus Christ. I am not going to be able to change that. But I do ask that you be fair and realize that we are not all evil, just flawed. I will never be perfect and never claim to be. I am human just like you. The best I can do is pray to the good LORD that he will aim me in the right direction on a daily basis and forgive me when I miss the mark.

        I am not trying to make you mad, but I am asking if I can pray for you. I will honor your wishes.

        please forgive me if I have upset you in any way, I would never want to do that.

        1. Matthew Beckett's Avatar Matthew Beckett

          Pray for my biological father if you wish. And not mad, just commented on the part where you said, "Most Anon's that follow Q are Jesus Christ saved," which seems to imply that they are all good people. My point was merely, using a personal example, that is not 100% true. On the flipside, I'm not trying to say they are all 100% bad by using my one example either. Context, or more specifically, gestalt, is very important. Anyway, have a nice evening.

  1. Eric R. Moore's Avatar Eric R. Moore

    I think the origins of new religious groups such as Discordians and the Church of the SubGenius should be studied for context on how we ended up in this situation. I often think Qanon is just the next phase of Operation Mindfuck.

  1. Kenneth E. Salvage Sr's Avatar Kenneth E. Salvage Sr

    Believing the existence of an all powerful God and living by his biblical words gives one a 75%+ chance for a good outcome after death. Believing any other way is a 50/50 flip of a coin! This is what "Pascals Wager" referred too! Your eternal fate is in your own hands in other words. Thats the beauty of free will! You make your own outcome! So believe what you want! You are the one that will held accountable!

    1. Matthew Beckett's Avatar Matthew Beckett

      This reminds me of what I like to refer to as Schrodinger's Jesus...both alive and dead... depending on the observer.

        Schrodinger's Jesus! That's a good one!

    2. Tom's Avatar Tom

      Given the large number of different faiths in the world, it's much worse odds than 50/50 or a 75% chance. This argument of "Pascals Wager" tends to ignore Eastern faiths as well as those of indigenous peoples to make believing in the existence of the Judeo-Christian appear to lead to a higher chance of a "good outcome after death."

      1. Matthew Beckett's Avatar Matthew Beckett

        And yet a vast amount of "Christians" still fear death...even if Jesus "proved" it is an unfounded fear. Jack Faith... pretending wholeheartedly one believes and follows there savior without really listening to him/her/it.

        On a side note, I find it fascinating how many Christians don't listen to the whole forgiveness thing (Matthew 18: 21-22), but practice the whole old testament "eye for an eye" revenge thing (post 9-11 comes to mind). So, regardless of the apologists retort that Jesus was a Jew, I know many Christians that need to ask themselves, are you a Christian or Jewish? Pick one, for God sake...pun intended.

        And does one take the Bible literally or figuratively? Pick one. It's like my Morman co-worker who chugs caffeine daily. How maliable is your faith? And where is the actual faith. What "rules" does one abide by? The Golden Rule itself seams to be lost in translation. If one believes in Jesus, for instance, he clearly says repeatedly that it is the "Father within," and not him... but somehow Jesus became the focus...and not actually what he said.

        I could keep going with a stupid amount of examples, but faith itself seems to be lacking all around. Whether the religion is Based on Jesus, science, or an eggplant. Just food for thought for nurishment...or indigestion...it is all relative.

      That list you posted is the Total Sample...you even put it in your post. The break down of numbers is NOT one that "lays out those that believe this so called conspiracy," as you have said. That is simply a breakdown of the people who participated in the survey...the Total Sample. If you read the stuff way before that list, it breaks down the specifics of who believes in it and who does not based on many factors. Nice try though.

      But there is the real history, you say!? I read about that on a website or two. I guarantee those websites also had very specific back and white and extreme conspiracy theory based foundations to them (much like Q). Again, something for everyone. But of course, when the government/academia/corporations/media unleashed the internet for everyone, it became a true pipeline of free information... unfettered from propoganda, indoctrination, or anything else controlled. Yeah, you say!!! They're controlling "The Left!". Those damn liberals! Soros! Clintons! Hollywood! But, of course, they would never control "The Right," now would they. Oh no. Or would they? Rhetorical questions are fun. And they would never push both "sides" to the extremes, would they? Never put one against the other. Because it is definitely not easier to control people's minds, on both sides, by doing so. /S

      Most of us have blood..and a liver...a heart....a spleen...DNA...a mother, a father (in the most biological sense at least)...in other words, us humans, despite how much melatonin is in our skin, or what Country we happened to be born in, or what brand of clothes we wear...we, whether we like it or not, are humans (well, except for the alien hybrids, of course...cough). And yet, sooooo many of us humans...even though we were actually born with Republican or Democrat thoughts....or born worshipping Jesus or Krishna....or born preferring Coke or Pepsi...or born knowing we are a patriotic 'Merican or Russian...or Iranian....or any number of ism's, or preferences, or indoctrinated, taught, pressured, brainwashed, passed down shit, we own that shit anyway.

      The real question....whether it is Q, or Jesus, or Pepsi, or patriotism, or...damn, this list could be huge....the real question is:

      Why?

      And the second real question is:

      Why not? Why not the "other side"? The other beliefs and thoughts and feelings and blah blah blah.

      What humanity truly needs is perspective...to step back and truly ask...why? Maybe even have an actual unbiased conversation with each other (not just those who have been programmed one way or the other).

      But F that! Let's keep fighting and judging and being the programmed puppets we have been made into. Let's keep the dualities going! Let's stick to our guns and battle each other with our rights and our wrongs. Let's keep cancelling each other. Because who the hell wants or needs to live life for LIFE itself...for joy, happiness, pleasure, altruism, learning, being, helping each other along the way? F that! /S
