A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    • 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    • 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    • 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

Religious sects are just factions with differing headcanons about their religious text’s characters.

You've gotta read Hindu mythology.

Literally just a bunch of village priests trying to out Marvel Hero each other on power levels. Think DBZ on acid.

Things... may have gotten a bit out of hand...

And aren't they inverted in Zoroastrianism? All the good guys are evil, and vice versa

The way you describe it, sounds pretty fun tbh.

It's not, not fun, but it's also more acid-soaked than anything you can imagine.

Which religion wears cannons on their heads?
