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.
gollark: Well, said belief says I'll be eternally punished for bad reasons, and they worship the being doing so, so... yes?
gollark: Or, well, says "be respectful", so actually no.
gollark: The rule mentions people and not beliefs anyway.
