I once met a guy who became a priest because he had a religious experience while talking to a chair.
The weirdest one I ever got was in highschool, someone said “how can you not believe in god, god is love” and I still don’t understand how that’s meant to be an argument.
Hahaha I love that this is written as “he had a religious experience WHILE talking to a chair”, not “he had a religious experience AND talked to a chair”. Dude’s just having a normal conversation with a chair and then something weird and unexplained occurred that put him on the path to god. I wonder if the chair was as convinced.
Well I’m being a little deceptive for the joke of course, but he just felt like Jesus was sitting in the chair and then talked to the invisible Jesus.
The guy ended up doing a bunch of stuff at my highschool and which really bugged me because he only ever had surface level religious phrases to say (motivational speaker kinda stuff but with more Jesus) that glossed over some really big issues we were all facing at the time.

That kind of phrasing always seems they assume that not believing is the same as rejecting and therefore you too believe in the existence of God/god.
They just completely miss the point.
Ah yeah “all atheists just hate god,” I forgot that was a thing. Could be the case, it was a long time ago
