mmmmmm not a fan of religious characters in shows being encouraged to go against their beliefs portrayed as personal empowerment and A Good Thing™

How is going against things you were taught to believe from birth and thinking for yourself not literally personal empowerment.

Concept: a huge amount of religious people weren’t that way from birth. Another concept: a huge amount of religious people think quite deeply about their faith. Another concept to blow your mind: these days, being genuinely devout is counter-culture, whereas being non-devout is mainstream. So you want us to think for ourselves by doing what society expects of us?

the Atheists™ think we haven’t heard that argument and don’t already meme about it
