Leaving intolerant religious backgrounds can lead to loneliness and lack of community. On the other hand, people from non-religious backgrounds may also feel a lack of purpose and seek meaning. Atheists who believe reason can protect them may be underestimating the impact of community and a sense of purpose. It is a misconception to generalize all religions as the same; different religions have diverse beliefs and foundations. Some religions focus on sacrifice and reward after death, while others emphasize forgiveness, love, and compassion. Recognizing the positive aspects of religion and its functions is crucial, as it provides a sense of community and purpose that individuals may seek in modern times.
