The scare quotes remind me the Christian community runs lousy with believers who assert those other Christians are not true Christians according to a personal standard.

It’s a standard that drastically changes depending on the individual. Some believe those who suffer LGBT+ folk cannot be true, while others would challenge the countless Protestant Evangelists in the United States Marine Corps who are expected to follow orders to kill without reservation.

As an outsider, I use the same model as the LGBT+ community, that someone is valdlid if they identify as a thing, which works for Christian as well as it does for Lesbian

An Underground Education by Richard Zacks. Especially since all the controversies are getting combed out of Wikipedia.

I suspect nonbelievers are more no, beating kids just sounds stupid while Jews are all we tried that shit out a long time ago and found it just makes for sad, dysfunctional adults, so yeah, we don’t do that anymore.

The Federalist Society six would have to struggle to be more obvious in their intentions. Normally, cases are dismissed unless someone has standing, e.g. is harmed directly by a given incident, and often judges will dismiss cases, even when there’s clear wrongdoing, but the plaintiff doesn’t have clear standing.

Given no-one bothered to confirm that Lorie Smith was actually commissioned by a couple to make a gay wedding website, it shows just how overly eager the court was to utilize this case to further privilige Christians over all others in the US.

Not only do bullshit rulings like this further reveal the court’s corruption (and de-legitimize it further in the eyes of the public and legal acadamia) but it also further divides society. Some Christians don’t actually want to be Christian Nationalists or haters, and yet more and more they’re having to choose between their faith and their community.

Considering I am totally inactive on Reddit now, yes.

In 2016 White Protestant Evangelicals voted 80% for Donald J. Trump knowing full well the severity of his character attributes. Even before the election they had already protested everyone [Trump at least] deserves forgiveness all the while being critical of Hillary Clinton for the relationship transgressions of Bill. It was evident to the rest of us that people in the movement (what would reveal itself to be the transnational white-power / Christian nationalist movement) were forgiven where the rest of us were condemned regardless of wrongdoing.

It showed to me that Christians in massive voting blocks were disinterested in the Jesus of He Gets Us adverts rather they were either drawn to Trump because a) he was racist as fuck, and gave them permission to also be racist, or b) because he was going to appoint at least two jurists to the US Supreme Court, and would appoint Federalist Society shills, which he as good as admitted was his part of the [Faustian] bargain. for support of the OG Republican Party.

Hatred is (allegedly) not a virtue of Christianity, but a lot of Christians are glad to play to it.

Pragmatism isn’t a virtue of Christianity either. In fact doing evil that good may come is directly proscribed, and yet we’ve seen a lot of Christians are glad to explain away all the parts of the bible they don’t like.

85% of the same demographic, white Evangelical Protestants voted for Trump in 2020.

Philosophically, this all is an indictment of the whole foundation of resurrection-dependent Christianity. Forming a church to spread the word sucks if the word is love your neighbor rather than massacre the infidels This wouldn’t be the first time that the Christian establishment took to the sword and forced everyone else to convert or die. And this shows that the God-breathed bible doesn’t offer a plan that wouldn’t almost instantly be subverted by humans. It rules out an omniscient god, unless They are playing hyperdimensional chess.

At this point, the elites have long used Christianity and hate (with lots of intersection) to preserve their power, and while I can’t speak for any other faith, I am not sure Christianity can survive the coming conflict, but then I’m not confident that the human species has more than a few centuries left, and we’re gone, our gods die with us.

So we continue to require the same closet that gays sometimes do.

In that case, we shouldn’t expect atheists to individually be out and proud until it is safe for them to do so.

I’m also curious how much hate-motivated violence is committed against atheists and pagans (compared to Muslims, who’ve been a target since 2001)

So there’s a catch after all.

If you’re concerned about Chinese spyware, You might want to also be concerned about US spyware as well. The US justice complex is not a friend to the US public, nor is the US national security complex.
