🕯️ Traditions Meme of the day!

[Gildarts Tale]

Apparently the “man made religion” tells people to deny themselves, control desires, stay faithful, forgive enemies, and carry their cross.

Worst marketing strategy ever if humans invented it.

Imagine your friend says, “Let’s play a game where you have to share all your candy, let your little brother go first, say sorry even when you didn’t start the fight, and carry a heavy backpack around the playground.”
You’d say, “That doesn’t sound fun at all! Who would ever want to play that game?”

So you’re right — if people were just trying to get other people to join their group, those rules would be terrible marketing. Like selling ice cream that tastes like broccoli.

But the people who follow that religion don’t think humans made up those rules. They think God made them, and God knows that sharing candy and being kind actually makes you really happy inside — even if it’s hard sometimes. And they believe God loves them so much that carrying that heavy backpack is worth it, because it brings them closer to God.

So it’s not a trick to get followers. It’s more like a doctor saying, “Eat your veggies, not more cookies.” It sounds less fun, but it’s actually good for you.
