1922's view on atheism

As a scientifically minded person, this propaganda actually makes sense. Atheism is the floor, and is thus energetically favoured. It's a poetic expression of Occam's razor.

I followed a similar path myself.

I like the word Modernist. Coined after WWI. I'm sure many started to question religion after that war.

The "no deity" step is already atheism, gnostic atheism.

You know I'd be more than happy to hang out with that Freud guy at the bottom.

no atonement & resurrection in my head should be above no deity.

Does the middle Guy look like Nietzsche to anyone else?

At first, I thought the old guy at the bottom was carrying a steak.

Love the concept.

If I'd drawn it, though, I'd've made the staircase going up rather than down, with the modernists emerging into the light.

I want to look like the bottom guy when I'm 60 or older, that guy looks badass and has a cauldron in his arm.

Well there's nothing at the top of the stairs, but a whole lot of stuff at the bottom...

Who would want to be at the top of those stairs, anyways?

Those steps are in no logical order. I wouldn't expect more from the kind of person who would make a cartoon like this.

was this supposed to portray it as a bad thing? aside from the word "descent" nothing about this image conveys an anti-atheist message.

Lobotomus_Prime · 2 months

How amusing... they thought these were bad things?

I'm pretty sure people should know that virgin birth is bs. It should be higher on this stair.

I know a guy on step 2. There's hope.

I find it interesting that "agnosticism" comes after "no deity" which would essentially be atheism.

Haikus3n531 · 2 months

If george carlin is right, there is a strip club in the tunnel under the stairs...

Disbelief in a deity comes before disbelief in the resurrection? That doesn't sound right.

The title is "A man who is on a tiny staircase"

Why is 'agnostic' even a step? Is it really that common of a belief that there is no such thing as an agnostic atheist/theist?

MoroccoBotix · 2 months

'Not sure of the year of this picture, but not everyone was religious back then.

nthensome · 2 months

Is this depicting that a bad thing is happening here?

I'm not trying to make a point, I'm actually asking a question...

This makes me want to label my stairs.

darkNergy · 2 months

The order isn't set in stone, but this seems fairly accurate.

mobyhead1 · 2 months

Aww, they're so cute when they inadvertently compliment us.

Sunsh1neMelting · 2 months

Anybody else notice that "atheism" is shown as four steps down from "no deity". I don't think that word means what they think it means.
