I’m so tired of this psycho Christian bullshit. When you teach people to fervently believe a bunch of things that make no sense… it’s too easy to make up nonsensical excuses, and there are people who 100% fall for them.

atheist insanity
example? I don’t see a lot of atheist insanity in our politics tbh.
I think that would include any non-religion specific insanity

Lol look at the downvotes man. Everyone here thinks you’re an idiot, not just that guy.
You should think more.

No, it’s because you’re rambling about things that aren’t relevant to the previous comment while using big words. You probably think it makes you sound smart, but none of what you’re saying makes any sense.

A lot of Christians have a pretty vague understanding of the bible, or the religion as a whole, usually jusy what will let them justify whatever they need to be justified.
This should be expected, to be fair, since Christianity is a cultural inheritance. You’re not expected to know much about it other than what your priest tells you, if the Christian even goes to church to begin with.
What’s even the point of deciphering the Bible when you can make it say what ever it is you like. Why not just start with what you want to believe and patch together Bible verses that support it?

As an actual Christian that reads the Bible and goes to church, I wish more people who called themselves Christian actually followed what the Bible says. It’s a big problem in the US
Some aren’t just ignorant of the Bible… they’re actively rejecting its teachings.
Yeah, if you don’t read the Bible or go to church, it’s almost impossible for you to actually be a Christian.
But for some reason what counts as a Christian is determined by what you choose to call yourself instead of what our holy text says.
Reading the bible is the leading cause of atheism.
Patently false. Most atheists have read the bible as much as most “Christians”. Some of the most-common “causes” of atheism are: never was pushed/encouraged to believe, skeptic/scrutinizing personality, or being annoyed by what “Christians” say or do. All of these reasons and more for being an atheist are good and valid-- I’m just arguing against this bad-faith (no pun intended) crap that you are arguing, and that some other atheists say.
I feel like you misinterpreted the comment you are replying to.
What did you think the implication was?
That some people read the Bible and say “wtf is this nonsense?” and then question how anyone could base a religion on that.
That’s my main problem with the culture. If people want to believe random supernatural stories written long in the past and use that as a basis for their morality… uh, okay… I just don’t like how they rely on other people to do their reading and interpretation.
And yet: “And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil”
That has never sat well with me. It suggests that God leads the sinful into sin, and capriciously decides whether to deliver or condemn.
Maybe God interfered in her free will like he did with the Pharaoh?
Something something Nuremberg Trial something something ethical subordination
And shit like this exactly is why religion needs to be kept out of school. If someone is curious, they can learn about it on their own, it’s a decision best made once more mentally developed, anyways. Don’t indoctrinate children with your bullshit, especially if the teachers are clearly not able to keep their own shit out of it.
Her attorney said Monique is just a “normal Bible-believing Christian.”
That’s an admission of guilt, not a legal defense! O.o
I disagree. If any of those “bible believing christians” had actually read the bible they’d know to be full of shit.
The American cults are truly fascinating as they managed to create the stronges gap between staun fundamentalist religious belief claims and a comical lack of actual scripture knowledge.
It shouldnt be considered a religion but a radical ideology with loose association to Christian symbolism but no actual connection to christianity.
It is truly amazing how some people claim to be incredibly firm believers in this or that religion and then it turns out they know almost nothing about the true principles and history. Like these people lately who have been saying Jesus’s teachings were ‘too liberal’. WTF, I know it’s how they do it, but you’re not suppose to just pick and choose.
So when I first read this I assumed that she posted a nazi meme that showed Nazi’s in a good light.
An understandable mistake given the current political climate. But she shared a meme that equated nazi flags with pride flags.
In a really perverse way, I’m at least happy that she still equates being a nazi with something ‘bad’. In her mind pride flags are bad so equating them with a nazi flag means she thinks that nazis are bad. What a relief!
Probably moreso insensitivity and stupidity than being a nazi
yes, we all know how mischievous loki tricking us for doing his shenanigans
Alberta, of course
It’s like Texas and Florida had a baby
The best part of Alberta is leaving it.
Can Confirm
Same, left two years ago and dread the one or two times a year I have to go back.
With conservatives. it is always someone else at fault. Always.
Although I have to admit that blaming the Holy Spirit for Nazi behavior is a new, bold move. What’s next? “Jesus would have shot this person, too!” or what?
Granted, it goes the other way too.
Doctor saves a Christian’s life? Praise jebus!

That’s hardly fair to people with actual bi-polar disorder.
Ironic of someone to use the Holy Spirit as an excuse with the context of brainwashing.
Probably gonna get downvoted for this, butthat’s a misleading headline. Nazi meme implies the meme itself is Nazi, where as the meme in question, according to the article, was comparing LGBT to Nazis.I don’t agree with the meme, for the record, I just have (what I think is) a reasonably specific definition of Nazi. “Bigoted” would be a more accurate word to use here.
But then, this is Not The Onion, and the headline is technically correct (it’s a Nazi meme in that it’s a meme featuring Nazis,) so whatever.
Yeah, it should be called an anti-trans or anti-liberal meme. Saying she was supporting Nazis is misleading and sensationalistic. However, ironically it is a point of view that historical or current Nazis would support.
Agreed.
Though I am now enjoying imagining this woman trying to be a subtle bigot at a party, while Hitler keeps butting into the conversation to emphatically support her…
I wish her self-awareness and growth, and all the discomfort, embarrassment and revulsion at her own choices that will come with it.
Here’s a friendly suggestion for Monique: if you are more concerned about protecting your fragile beliefs than understanding that freedom of speech does not absolve one from the consequences it brings, keep your Nazi memes to yourself and spare us the melodrama. The world doesn’t need more deluded individuals who use religion as a shield for their bigotry.
Based
They aren’t even following their religion properly. just using it to make themselves feel better and above everyone else.
Just a second. checks notes
God = Good
Devil = BadSomething seems off here.
She’s wrong
“Oh God, make me not responsible for my own actions!”
normal Bible-believing Christian
I agree with her attorney.
STAR PLATINUM told me to post Satanic content then.
Oh fuck i did it again. I posted 15tb of jotaro p0rn because santa claus told me to.

It’s the same kind of content as my content.
