i cannot support any religion in which being kind to others is given less importance than submitting to a god. i cannot support any religion that pushes its followers to be better worshippers rather than better people.

Magical thinking won’t protect you from a virulent virus.
“Just as Christianity must destroy reason before it can introduce faith, so it must destroy happiness before it can introduce salvation.“
Believers aren’t happy, they’re just relieved.
Church nativity scene puts the holy family in cages, because that's how America deals with asylum-seekers like Christ
Jesus and his fam were refugees, so it’s only fitting that the folks at Claremont United Methodist Church decided to put its nativity figures in cages behind razorwire.
As Rev Karen Clark Ristine said, Jesus, Mary and Joseph were “the most well-known refugee family in the world. What if this family sought refuge in our country today? Imagine Joseph and Mary separated at the border and Jesus no older than two taken from his mother and placed behind the fences of a Border Patrol detention center.”
A separate nativity inside the church reunites the family. Nearly 70,000 children were imprisoned by the US government for seeking asylum in 2019.

That’s why they don’t do it.
The War on Saturnalia begins.Â
Who says prayer isn’t effective?
From a Christian stand, would it be fair to consider Nationalism the worship of a false idol?
I’m just saying, if I had a replica of the golden cow and I stood in front of it in a golden cow t-shirt and golden cow hat with golden cow tattoos, held up a gun and threatened to shoot and kill anyone who disrespected the golden cow, or at the very least beat the shit out of them and remove them from their homes, I feel like it’d raise some red flags
Like yeah I worship God and follow His teachings above all else, but like… not if they go against the Golden Cow
AND THAT’S THE TEA
HEY. LOOK AT THIS.
