@pachabelcanon he sees religions in progress (lutherism as the most ideal religion 😭😭😭) and wants to finish this progress with a new found understanding of humanity's potential and true status - like other cults of reason!! maybe french atheism and German atheism share a root 😍😍😍
@pachabelcanon I think the idea of a cult of reason can be found in feuerbach as well! While he sees religion as alienated anthropology he thinks that religion still serves a crucial purpose in reminding humanity of its ideal status that it could reach (if not alienated themselves).
