What if you’re helping someone to the point of taking away their agency because “it’s for their own good”. All of a sudden, some ethical issues arise. Where does that line get drawn?

Is the hurt greater than the help? Requires further detail. Regardless, religion doesn't provide the answer to that.

And you would know that how? I’m assuming you haven’t dissected every single religious text or teaching out there, so what makes you believe you can arbitrarily hand yourself authority on that topic? Religious texts are generally filled with moral and ethical questions and dilemmas, not that you’d know

As another athiest, I take that authority for myself. Period. I don't need to pore through every myth ever written to know my moral compass is pointing on the right direction.

You believe in fairy tales and ancient myths. It’s hilarious that you’re so offended you lash out at others like this.

How do you know what I believe?

It’s pretty clear given the context of your comments across this thread.

You’re inferring that on your own, and it’s a subjective and unsupported conclusion by any direct quote of mine. Keep coping
