Agree with you brother, I find the idea that the big bang was “the beginning” as being far too narrow minded. It wasn’t the first and it won’t be the last.
While I find value in what you’re saying, I’d encourage you to take the time to explain your positions. When you say
you must realize that you’re speaking to an audience that is familiar with christianity, the Exorcist movies, or played diablo 2 at some point. Not only does language matter, but context of the time does too, as you said. If no other word will suffice, you should take the time to better explain what you mean.
I say should because the world isn’t binary. There are people who want to hear your perspective but will absolutely dismiss you as a right-wing troll because of that one word - because there is only so much time in the day to dedicate to talking and thinking about things to risk wasting it on a one-liner with no further context.
If a person can’t get passed their own prejudices in order to reach understanding, I would rather leave them to their ignorance than waste time trying to drag them out of it.
