    “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.

      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.

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

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

          Jesus and the teachings of christianity in any of its forms are irrelevant to a functional modern society. Anyone who uses any parts of the bible beyond a few cherry-picked, out of context, touchy-feely bits as a foundation for their morality is almost certain to be a worse person for it.

      Christianity is the perfect religion for capitalists. They can do all the harm they want while they’re alive and all they have to do is ask for forgiveness to go to heaven.

    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.

    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.
