DOGE will shut it down, right?

Right?
If you’re trying to root out antichristian behavior, you might start with the antichrist himself.
So is he going to eradicate himself? Because he’s basically the antichrist…
How dare you talk about God Emperor rump like that! Straight to Guantanamo!
It’s wild the Christian religion is generally about love and tolerance (if you read the Bible), but the actual practitioners are some of the worst fuckers in American society
As a Christian, I can honestly say I’m appalled at literally everything the current administration is doing. We’re called to love others, not to judge them. There is a huge difference in saying you’re Christian and behaving as one.
You really don’t know very much (or want to admit) about the history of Christianity do you
You talking Old or New Testament? Because most of the arguments people seem to have with Christianity (from my experience, at least) come from OT rules/etc that became obsolete due to Jesus.
Unless you’re talking more modern history…?
you grew your church at the tip of a spear, and at the sharp end of a sword. you made demons during the inquisitions. you made partners with the nazis. christians. don’t make me fucking laugh.
So you’re talking more modern history. I don’t agree with the way Christianity has been forced on people throughout history. I don’t condone the inquisitions, etc.
It saddens me, honestly, at how far from true Christianty most publically open “Christians” are. Forcing your beliefs on others, ridiculing those who don’t believe the same as you, and not treating all of humanity with the respect and love the deserve are not actions of a true believer in Christ.
No true scotch egg or some shit
And I pose to you all those evil things are CENTRAL to the actions of a true believer in Christ, as they’ve proven to be, for the last 1700 years, that any fantasy about love, forgiveness, acceptance and peace is the fairy tale Christians tell themselves while they’re forcefully decimating anyone that doesn’t believe what they do
I like to point out that one of the first lessons the Bible teaches the reader is one of hierarchy and inherent supremacy over others. Eve is lesser to Adam, as all women should be to all men. Man is the dominator of the land, bending nature to his whims. All men are to worship a supreme being because he’s bigger, stronger, more powerful, and these are respected traits held by any authority. It’s baked into the values that some of us should be supreme to others, and the inherent violence of this philosophy can be used to justify wars and genocide, as has happened time and again.
Christianity is only good if you use confirmation bias to pick out the parts you like, but the whole text creates drones and fascists by design. I believe in God, but I would never in my life subscribe to Christian beliefs (not even getting into the open hostility the church has held against my particular section of belief throughout history that persists to this day).
Jesus explicitly said He was not making any rules obsolete.
What He did was tell and show that OT laws are supposed to be read from the perspective that they are meant to help and protect the weak and “lesser”.
And the OT is a history of God’s love for humanity as much as the NT.I was thinking more about the things such as animal sacrifices and temple rituals, which were law prior to Jesus. But he did say he came to fulfill the Law, thereby making those practices obsolete since He became the ultimate sacrifice.
That’s not the same thing as the teachings of the NT though. I’m not saying Christianity is without fault at all here, but saying the message is equivalent to the behavior of zealots from another age is kind of silly
Crusade, Inquisition, Holocaust.
None of those things are contemporary with anything Jesus would have taught.
And they never were, but they were and are in fact what the followers of Jesus have and are doing, these examples are the norm in the history of Christianity, as they are once again being repeated in Trump and MAGA. We got the receipts man, the whole world does. This is who Christians are, and this is what Christians do.
OK so you are having a different conversation with your self. Have fun I guess?
It seems you didn’t read the bible ;)
That’s pre-Jesus stuff though. You can find faults in the New Testament too but this thread is seriously missing the point I think
The Crusades never ended.
I see no statements from Muslim communities who helped him to grab this presidency. I would like to know their reaction to this.
He’s off to a bad start; announcements like that only serve to increase anti-Christian bias, mine included.
Good luck with that, fuckos.
It’s “Antichristian bias”. In other words, bias against the Antichrist.
Too bad they won’t address all the “Christians” that make it their mission to live drunk on cruelty and schaudenfreude.
If being Christian has anything to do with honoring and following the tenets of Jesus of Nazareth as written in the New Testament, there isn’t a single Christian in the Republican party.
They use Jesus like a mask or totem to be on “I win morality” base while almost exclusively advocating inhuman atrocities like destroying families and doing the opposite of everything in their supposed own book they’ve clearly never read.
It’s not like they try but fall short either. This isn’t no true Scotsman, all they do is hate. When is the last time you’ve seen a Republican express love for anyone that wasn’t rooted in angering (hating) their innumerable enemies? Is Jesus not love?
They don’t believe in good or bad acts. They believe in good or bad people. Good people do good things. Bad people do bad things. They believe in Jesus, so they must be good. You don’t, so you must be bad. Now any action against you in justified, cause they do good and you do bad and bad must be stopped by good. Doesn’t matter what you’re doing, and doesn’t matter what they do to you. The morality has already been established.
Does this mean I can potentially create an organization that has the goals of flipping over tables that sell stuff at churches?
If you remove the anti, all you’re left with is the pro.
By design in this case. 250 years of a lie lol.
