So, which one keeps giving it septic tanks full of dead babies?
And why the fuck do we tolerate this shit existing when that's the benign version?
I'll tell you exactly why these trump supporting Christians don't realize this, it's because most of them don't actually think critically about what's actually in the Bible. They have piss poor media literacy, and their example of Christianity is what their probably racist parents and community instilled into them. That's how my father is.
I read about this story today and looked her up. Why do so many people watch her content? I genuinely couldn't get through more than 30 seconds of anything she's posted. Not that she's a bad person, and I hold nothing against her personally, but it's just utterly uninteresting to boredom. Like photos of food but of people.
fuck off with that shit. too little too late. ACAB. destroy all religions for the future of humanity
I often feel this way and my inner-angry-atheist called the shots for years, but so many of us have done this, and we've formed a bubble thinking angry atheism is spreading and it's not. In reality we've just ceded the most important debates, the ones that morality can be baked into - LGBT rights, immigrant rights, death penalty, etc - leaving the left without the support we need to win in these arenas.
If you really want progressive ideals to win, drop the attitude about religion, run the other way - embrace religious progressives, support progressive faith communities, and watch as we start winning elections again.
I am happily MAGA= I am happily fascist.
Just now thinking about it?
Christians are evil people.
They celebrate their “savior” being murdered
They’re all insane and have victim persecution complexes
They think that being persecuted makes them good.
But they aren’t persecuted. And they persecute others.
Christians are the worst.
They (Christian MAGA) don't care. I have a family member I shared this verse, and many others with, and they only got angry at me. This was months ago.
They simply don't care. Not about what Jesus said, and not about any of us.
It's always best to address stuff like this with a very wide grin and say "Ah, it's good to know that for all your self-righteousness and false piety, you will burn in hell, and Jesus will weep knowing his sacrifice meant nothing to you. Ta!"
You don't even need to believe it, it just really gets under people's skin. Fuck 'em.
They got...angry? What, typical "don't sass me" or what? What did they saaaay?
I know it's not my place to ask but just soooo curious ;-;
My brain is still as broken as my relationship with my father when he looked me straight in the eyes and told me that yes, Jesus would be ok putting kids in cages.
