Before I was banned, my highest up-voted post on Reddit was a clip of this woman babbling in tongues for God to intervene in the 2020 election.

HAHA fucking found it! I challenge you to watch it and not laugh.

I recently got banned for saying we should have hanged all southern traitors after the civil war

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

I got banned for suggesting that government officials who violate people's constitutional right to due process and get them killed as a result would be prosecuted for capital murder. Apparently, that's "inciting violence". I appealed it, simply to say "fuck spez", and promptly deleted my account.

You missed your stop. You were supposed to step off at 1930s Germany, right? Well, now we’re already headed towards medieval Spain. You might like the inquisition though.

"I'm up here working on the initiatives for President [Trump], who's been in ministry for 40 years and understands it," she insisted.

WTF? Show ANY evidence at all of 40 years of HitlerPig's "ministry," specifically anything BEFORE he decided to run for president.

It's from a passage in the Bible.

Ephesians 5:22-24:

Wives, submit yourselves to your own husbands as you do to the Lord.  For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church, his body, of which he is the Savior.  Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit to their husbands in everything.

My mom used to force us to go to church all the time, but she finally stopped when the pastor did a sermon on that one.

And then there’s Proverbs 5:19…

Even the ancient Levant had its furries!

I think that comparing breasts to deer was probably something of a poetic convention then. I believe that there's something in Solomon along the same lines.

goes to investigate

Yeah.

Song of Songs 4:5:

Your breasts are like two fawns,
like twin fawns of a gazelle
that browse among the lilies.

Song of Songs 7:3:

Your breasts are like two fawns,
like twin fawns of a gazelle.

That was written by a human, not God.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Ah, yes, but a divinely-inspired human, no doubt, acting on God's will to relay His message.

https://biblehub.com/topical/t/the_power_of_divine_inspiration.htm

Divine inspiration is a foundational concept in Christian theology, referring to the process by which God imparts His wisdom and guidance to humanity. This inspiration is most notably associated with the authorship of the Bible, where human writers were moved by the Holy Spirit to convey God's truth. The power of divine inspiration is evident in the transformative impact of Scripture, its enduring relevance, and its ability to guide believers in faith and practice.

Like I said, written by a human. The rest, like the entire Bible, or even religion itself, is also a human construct.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Written by a schizophrenic human

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Maybe, but a lot was written by neolithic goatherders telling stories to pass the time, in an age before Netflix. One guy had a good aptitude for making up good stories, and they got passed down.

If being a sub is her kink, she can do that. If she likes being a sub, why is she so bossy?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago

If she likes being a sub, why is she so bossy?

In my experience, those are always the ones who get off on being subby.

Now Dennis, I've heard that speed has something to do with it.

Ofc Trump has a fucking faith office. I wouldn't be surprised in the slightest if he tried implementing biblical laws like some type of Christian version of Sharia law, or called for teaching creationism as fact in schools.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

100% this is definitely what he's going to do. Use Christianity as a weapon, and cite things like this and the prosperity gospel, then ignore any of the messages of Christ. None of that Jesusy stuff you know?

I grew up in the Bible belt, and had some truly awful experiences with people like this that made me distance myself from identifying as a Christian for a long time. I didn't want to go to church and be around these kinds of people, but I realized I never stopped believing in the importance of the beautiful messages I learned literally from as early as I can remember.

The book of Matthew talks about Jesus passing through a city and someone asking him, of all of the information in the old testament, what is the most important to remember? Jesus answers the question by summarizing the 10 commandments into 2:

The first is love thy God with all thy heart, all thy soul, and all thy mind. The second is like unto it, love thy neighbor as thyself.

Literally a message straight from Jesus telling you, if you take away nothing else from this book, then remember these two things. JD Vance has tried to publicly argue that the second part isn't really something you necessarily have to agree with as a Christian. This is so very important to remember when they try to use Christianity as a weapon, and something I've thought about a lot.

The first message is love thy God with everything you are. The second, is like unto it (it goes without saying), love thy neighbor as thyself.

If you believe God created man in his image, and you truly love him with your entire heart, your entire mind, and your entire soul, then you must also strive to have that same love for yourself because you recognize you are part of God's creation.

In order to truly love God with everything you are, it goes without saying you must also love your neighbor and recognize your neighbor is also part of God's creation.

She needs to get back in the kitchen and make some sandwiches and be seen and not heard.
