'Who is to say you are any more woke than me or anyone else?'

Because I am acutely aware that 'our every thought, opinion and perception is programmed into us by mass 'education' and 'media' systems' and you are not.

That's mighty arrogant of you lol. You sound like part of a cult, and cults are bred to think alike due to a single authority telling them so. You sound as indoctrinated as anyone else. But sure, your path through life is the real path. Everyone else who thinks their path is the real path is just wrong and uninformed.

Fun fact, there are 4,300 religions around the world. Barely 10% of the world is non-religious.
All religious people know for real that its their religion which is true, the others are simply misguided and have been lead down the wrong path, and the real religion simply neds to go out and make them acutely aware of their mistakes.

Makes you think, eh?

i'm not in a religion, you are (and you don't know it of course.)

[mobbs]

If you call 'changing my views based on facts and evidence' a religion, sure thang

[daznez]

there are only 2 religions in the world, God's and babylon. so if you ain't in God's..

never wondered why washington d.c. is shaped like a pentagram, or the monument is 666 feet tall in all, or why the eye of horus is on the dollar bill, if america was supposed to be founded as a christian country?

facts and evidence indeed.

Starting to think you're trolling now. but just in case you're being serious, here are some facts for you, easy for you to google:

1 - 'the Government of the United States of America is not, in any sense, founded on the Christian religion' - Article 11, Treaty of Tripoli, 1797. Just because the religion had influence on the nation's moral design, does not mean it was 'supposed to be' Christian. It was specifically meant to be open to all religions. Source

2 - Washington monument is 554 feet tall. Before you throw it at me, the underground foundations are 36 feet 10 inches. You're way off. {Source](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Washington_Monument)

3 - Geometry lesson; pick any 5 points of a circle and you can make yourself a pentagram. You can also make a regular pentagon or any number of other shapes. To suggest DC is shaped like a pentagram, you would need far more specific elements, which your map fails to do.

For example, one of the points leading to Mount Vernon Square is bunk because this didn't even exist until 1902.

The freemasons that would have been responsible would have necessarily made all lines equal length to symbolize the golden ratio - that's the whole point pretty much - but they're just not.

And finally, the pentagram wasn't even thought of as some special evil symbol until Éliphas Lévi wrote about it in 1896. Before that, the pentagram was a frequently used symbol in most religions and spiritual beliefs as a positive sign.

If you were a real Christian, you would know that Christians used it for the 'five stigmata of Christ' used to ward off demons. In China, the 'wu xing', are the five elements used in traditional medicine, healing, and so forth.

Currently, the pentagram on the Ethiopian flag is used to represent the unity of the people. The one on the Moroccan flag represents love, joy, wisdom, peace, and hope. Source

4 - It's the eye of providence. It's meant to be the eye of God. If it is specifically the God Horus, he wasn't even bad anyway.

Overall, we can ask 'why' about everything, but like all religions you are stamping with a big red stamp, answers that most easily make sense to you and make you feel in control of your surroundings, citing images and youtube videos from people who agree with you already as evidence. Non-religious people, like me, are totally fine with saying 'I don't know' and 'oops, my bad'

Unfortunately, all the above points are excessively easy to find answers to online so that's why I think this was a big troll because you could have simply copy-pasted your answers and within 3-4 seconds had the answers in front of you, as well as in-depth history and explanations. But it was a good troll because it was interesting for me to learn a bit about the freemasons and such.

But since that would be cognitively dissonant, you decide all the answers are false, right?

[daznez]

my God, you must be right, there isn't any evil going on at the top levels of society, everyone has plenty and the rulers love us. no child-rape, no mass-theft of the nation's wealth via the central banking system, no wars started on lies and false flags, no torture, no poisoning and polluting and injustice and incessant propaganda, surveillance, expansion of the state powers at the expense of individual liberty - everything's really peachy eh?

being intelligent is no sign of having a clue as to the actual nature of reality.

as to your assertions about christianity, there is no pentagram, nor any other 'approved' symbol of God in the bible. you're talking about the many, many cults that have grown up around the bible and have some loose tenuous link to it, but not the words of God through the hands of His prophets.

even wikipedia would not be able to disagree on that.

there isn't any evil going on at the top levels of society

How on earth did you extrapolate that from my reply?

even wikipedia would not be able to disagree on that.

From Wikipedia: 'Christians once commonly used the pentagram to represent the five wounds of Jesus.'

More:

It was inscribed on King Solomon’s ring, which is often called Solomon’s Seal in error. Each point of the pentagram was also interpreted as referring to the five books of the Pentateuch – the first five books in the Hebrew Scriptures; the Torah.

To the Hebrews the five points of the pentagram were tied to the Pentateuch (the first five books of the bible) and represented as a whole the concept of truth.

There are many connections between the pentagram and Christianity. Before the cross, it was a preferred emblem to adorn the jewelry and amulets of early Christians (followed by an ‘x’ or a phoenix). The pentagram was associated with the five wounds of Christ, and because it could be drawn in one continuous movement of the pen, the Alpha and the Omega as one.

Constantine the Roman Emperor who converted to Christianity chose to use the pentagram on his seal and amulet...During these times the pentagram carried no evil implications at all and in fact, in a lesser way than the cross, was symbolic of the Savior.

'The adoption of the pentacle as a Satanic emblem is quite recent, dating only to the latter half of the twentieth century.'

For most of human history the pentagram has symbolized good things – the heavens, stars, health, scriptures, truth, and even the Savior, Jesus Christ.
