"Love thy neighbor, unless they're gay, black, immigrant or they think different from you, then harass then and make false allegations and boycott every woke media" - somewhere in the Bible.

also remember how jesus helped and fed poor people? well that's commie bullshit, we don't do that here

I think that was in Shitforbrains 24:7 or was it Propaganda 69:420?

Either was totes there, Jesus was big on hating thy neighbor.

Christianity and capitalism aren't compatible but no one is ready to have that conversation

Isn't there a story in the Bible where Jesus kicks the merchants out of a church and punches them?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

He flipped over tables and straight up whipped the merchants and money changers calling them thieves.

I've had this exact same epiphany after having arguments with my parents about politics... Like, "You made me this way!"

It's very sad. I'm fortunate that it was the opposite for me. Born into a hyper-conservative Catholic family, then when 3 out of 4 of their children wound up LGBTQ, they realized that God might have been telling them something. They're extremely and refreshingly Christ-like, and total allies. They treat my same-sex fiancé as their full-blown in-law.

That's good, but such a low bar we give them

I think it's more that Christians are mad that they would be helping others who don't share their same belief system.

Which is funny because that's exactly what the Bible tells them not to do

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Bold of you to assume that Christians actually read the Bible.

Love is the sister to hate. It's very easy to convert one to the other. "Love" your enemies. Love is the Christian codeword for hate. God "loves" you with the intensity of 1000 suns. Climate change is god's love.
