No I was just hoping “Bible Bad, upvotes to the Left” was something we could outgrow BEFORE we graduate high school.
It’s not a matter of respecting beliefs but of looking like an adult.
Considering the political and social leanings of the typical Lemmy user, I think you’re going to be repeatedly disappointed looking for people who think the Bible is a good thing. In any modern and halfway decent society, yes, Bible is bad. Recognizing that something is shit isn’t an ability restricted to children.
I’m not asking people to think the Bible is a good thing, I’m asking people not to talk like they’re snorting cheeto dust while they watch Rick & Morty.
Ah, so we can think the Bible is bad, we just can’t say anything about it because that would be edgy. Gotcha.
Don’t put words in my mouth. You’re an adult you know how to behave without making a fool of yourself.
That advice definitely goes two ways.
All I’m asking is people stop acting so smug and quit villifying out-groups.
Vilifying out-groups?! In case you haven’t noticed, “vilifying out-groups” is kinda their whole shtick, as evidenced by how shitty things have been getting lately for actual persecuted minorities anytime Christian nut-jobs get control of governments. Miss me with that shit.
Yes, but you’re equating the entirety of the group with the extremists, that’s fucked up.
I’m asking you to be better than extremist fundies, which we’ve established are scuzzy as hell, this shouldn’t be that hard.
Some of us adults are tired of other adults having imaginary friends and expecting to be treated like adults
So just because someone has a religion you don’t think they deserve to be treated like a human being? You have revealed your bigotry.
