Well, I was kinda bored and mostly I have seen users from first world countries so I wonder let there be a QnA session so that other people can get an idea how atheism works in 3rd world country. I am not that much strong atheist now as I have become atheist very recently like last year so I still feel the urge to find God and to pray.

    Do you like “The Book of Mormon” musical?

    Actually, have you ever come in contact with the Christian voluntourism industry and what’s your take on how they work?

      I have not heard that but I have started to read The Book of Mormon. There are some voluntary organizations that worked in my country ran by Christians. I have visited a Catholic-owned (I did not know it before as they did not have a Christian sounding name) home for mentally and physically disabled children and adults as part of my community assignment (in 2024). It was kinda good like architecture was good, children were good, it had children of all backgrounds dancing playing. It seemed good maybe cuz preaching of any other religion other than the state religion (which is not Christianity) is generally very rare and you cannot convert the person out of the state religion into another religion legally so we don’t see other religions being expressed as publicly as possible.

        Oh cool, definitely see/listen/read the musical sometime, it’s different from the book. Would actually like to hear your Mormon-takes too when you finish the Mormon bible.

        Okay interesting. In their base countries we have running debates about whether those places are cynical or if good is good when done for selfish reasons. The people who should have a say in that are the ones who are receiving aid from them. Thanks for your answers and for posting!
