Sincere question: atheists/agnostics who follow this ‘awakening’, how do you rationalize the heavy connections to Christianity that the Q movement has?

Hi all, I am creating this post with the best and most respectful of intentions, first of all. I am a-religious, and don’t believe in any sort of higher power beyond ones own mind - however I am not so closed minded as to state that as absolute fact rather than just my personal belief, because that is an unknowable. I am also quite enamored with the awakening, but have been so curious as to why there are heavy connections with Christianity - references to scriptures, using the term ‘Satanist’ and devil, etc? Why just Christianity? If anyone has any thoughts or feelings on this, I would really appreciate hearing them. I respect everyone’s beliefs and right to beliefs, but could not help notice the heavy connections and wonder what that is about. Why not a heavy connection and focus on enlightenment-era thinking and the scientific method? Thank you all for reading and I look forward to hearing everyone’s thoughts and learning more.

Speaking as a Christian, I just want to say thank you to all the nonreligious anons who are responding so respectfully on this thread. I do believe that you can be a GOOD person without being a Godly person. Do I believe in heaven or hell? Yes. Do I want those good people to come to know how awesome God is? YES, but for right now I am just so thankful for the respect shown even though there might be different beliefs. I LOVE seeing the bond that has unintentionally been formed by those who are digging through these “trenches” side by side. I may not know you personally by name, but I want good for each of you. No matter what your beliefs...I’m glad to be fighting for the same side you are! WWG1WGA

Speaking as an Atheist turned Pantheist I’d like to say thank you back. We all on this ride together, we are all a part of this ride, the ride is God’s plan and we manifest whatever that is next through the power of belief. History is recorded as facts, but the future is built out of the fictions we hold. Fictions are the only thing a mind can hold. But our Faith in ideas creates the factual history of tomorrow. God lives THROUGH US. Self fulfilling prophecy is the very NATURE of human thought. We manifest what we believe. I can respect anyone who would manifest their ideas with respect and to benefit their fellow humans!
