“I tell you again, it is easier for a camel to fit through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of Heaven.” -Christ
Charlie “Empathy is Evil” Kirk?
Yes. Remember, they worship Supply Side Jesus, not the one described in the Bible.
Angry Jesus. He is out beating up the gays right now.
“13th Disciple” is code for “2nd Judas”
Charlie would be wrestling that guy for the bag of silver coins.
I grew up religious and don’t think I’d heard that. Is it a Catholic thing?
Republicans pretending to be “Christians” never ceases to amuse
Holy fuck, I am so sick of this.
At what point do you admit that you’re just licking assholes?
Come on, a Palestinian man preaching love and compassion ? The whole lot of them would call him a communist terrorist…
If Jesus came back and came to America, he would be shot within 10 minutes of opening his mouth and 100 years later a new religion would be started with a Glock as it’s symbol.
Have these people just never actually read the Bible, or something?
No but they thump it all the time
Acquaintance from high school married a preacher man, “met” him on FaceBook. Very intelligent and well educated man. His doctorate in divinity is real, he worked for it, absolute expert. His arguments were well crafted and we loved poking each other. Plus, we were both hot pepper fanatics and growers. :)
Here’s the point: That’s the only Christian I’ve met in life that could actually debate Biblical views. I can turn most of them into a raging, spitting, cursing mess with a dozen questions, and they almost never engage for the whole dozen.
Guess I should include my best friend. He was a conservative Southern Baptist, very angry when I announced I had turned to atheism, though he was fine with me as a deist. LOL, I corrupted that fucker. Now he’s an atheist, liberal, and supports gay rights. But again, he’s an exception. His best traits are that he’s intelligent, way more so than I, and best yet, he can admit he’s wrong and is willing to examine his beliefs. Exceptions proving rules and whatnot.
Oooo, can you give us a list of your 12 questions? Or a bunch of them?
LOL, no list. I just grew up in a white-bread Presbyterian church, know the Bible well enough to argue, if not exact chapter and verse.
Dang, I was hoping you could give us some good ammo.
Very likely not. It’s not an easy book to get through. Even the most devout will usually tap out at the begats.
Read?
American Far-Right Evangelicalism is the biggest heresy in 21st century Christianity and possibly the most wide spread heresy in the history of the religion.
Technically Islam is, since it has roots in the arianism heresy
I reckon being heretical involves at least claiming to be part of the religion. You might have a better argument for LDS
Eh, Muslims claim to worship “The god of Adam, Moses, Abraham, and Jesus”.
JWs claim to be Christian but not the same religion as Christians.
I think Mormons do claim to be a Christian debomination somehow. They even sing Christian hymns. Although I had a Mormon missionary reject monotheism to my face. But again, that’s probably why we’d measure them as heretics here.
I think the Mormons have the number of people that will go to heaven down to a set number and it is not very large like several thousand. That is of all time. Which makes it kind of funny when they are trying to recruit you in their minds you were predestined never to go to heaven.
Those are Jehovah’s Witnesses.
They believe that there is a two tier system, that there are 144,000 people who will go to heaven and the rest will remain on earth.
Mormons believe you become a god and get your own planet
Eh, Muslims claim to worship “The god of Adam, Moses, Abraham, and Jesus”.
Well, sure, but that’s not enough for them to be considered “Christian” in any useful sense of the word. We certainly wouldn’t consider Christians to be Jewish by that standard and they have a much deeper foundation in Judaism than Islam has in Christianity.
Mormons cannot really be considered Christians either
they self-identify as christian though, whereas Muslims do not self-ID as Christians.
And lo, Charles did look down upon the leper, and he did pronounce “ugh, get a job!”
He wouldn’t have needed 30 pieces of silver.
Reality is meaningless to these people. They just make up whatever, it’s a massive circlejerk.
The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.
Actually, correct me if I’m wrong but that was Matthias who replaced Judas Iscariot after he gave himself a neck stretch.
Yup. He brought the total living disciples back up to 12, but was the 13th to be chosen.
MAGA is a bad book club.
Because of his position on social issues?

If you haven’t read his wiki, now is a great time.
Only with “Republican Jesus”. You know, the white guy wearing a toga, a cross, and an AR15.
