Its been 5 years since i have left my faith and i am at a place where i would like to learn about religion as whole, in secular sense.Not looking for anti-theist discussions.
I wouldn’t mind if the creator is religious themself as long as they are nice and don’t push their views on the viewer.
I am interested in religious themes, history, mythology, spiritually in general and don’t mind long videos. I don’t have specific religions in mind, rather i would like an array of perspectives. That said, don’t worry if the creator you want to recommend me focus on only one religion or just the Abrahamic religions in general, i am open to any perspectives.
I do have a pile of saved articles and books on religions i want to read eventually, but its been difficult for me to start, so i wanted to try a more passive medium.
Feel free to recommend me podcasts if you.
I’ve come across the channel “Heliocentric” (https://youtube.com/@heliocentricofficial) he seems to have a really empathetic yet atheistic stance on religion that I quite appreciate. (From what I can tell, I have only watched a couple videos from him so far)
I’ve been going down a Mormonism rabbit hole over the last couple of months (I grew up “nondenominational” Christian, and find it fascinating how wild Mormonism theology is) and it brought me to his channel. He goes out and actually interacts with different religions and the people in them, but doesn’t shy away from discussing the darker and shitty parts of those religions, such as how bad mormons treat those they excommunicate.
It sounds like it might be up your alley.
Gotta say, the look of the channel is off putting
Fair enough. To each their own.
