gollark: Religions often lean on the "you are a horrible sinner so go believe X and you'll be saved", and "believe X or you'll go to bad place™".
gollark: I did mean the "find another religion" thing somewhat jokily, but it is still quite weird that somehow people are fine with being implicitly told they're terrible and will be punished horribly because it's religion.
