@Vigil "People of faith are generally good. I oppose demagogues who bastardise the holy books to fulfil their own bigotry" -- except that's exactly what you did, hateful bigot, when you so dishonestly mangled and misinterpreted a Bible passage, then doubled down and lied some more about it. The truth of the matter is, you've been little but a passive aggressive bigot and bully.

It's like... kinda... almost sorta... but not quite...?

I quoted the Bible

Max calm the fuck down

Am I a bigot if I oppose bigotry? I'm curious

Further., @Vigil , youy are a completely dishonest hypocrite who joins hateful Atheist ideologues who LIE about relgiion, LIE about the Church--like you lied with your abusive, bigoted ideologue out-of context Bible quote--and you say NOTGHING about the MUTLIPLE lies your friends here told.

I'm not even atheist

The truth of the matter is you are not a follower of Christ or his message. You lie about the Bible, you lie about Christians.

I'm agnostic and live in a Christian manner

If I lie about Christians do you deny my assertion that most religious people are generally well-meaning?

@Vigil I didn't say you were an Atheist. I said you were a dishonest bigot who mangkled te Bible on purpose in a malicious way. Which is what you did. You also called me out for bad behavior but refused toa ccknowledge your vicious Atheist bigot friends for THEIR multiple lies. You are a hypocrite, who poses as if you have some values. You do not. You're doing nothing projecting your own bigotry, and that of your friends.

Max, sit the fuck down, mate. Take a breath.

@Vigil I'm not interested in your position that most religious people are well-meaning, because it's not jrelevant to the fact that you and your friends are behaving like a bunch of lying, hateful bullies, and you have one set of standards for them and another for others. You're just a bigot and bully who lies about history and lies about religion, just like the rest. BUt you're real good at playing victim.

If I'm a bigot for standing against supposed Christians making fun of people for being poor and fatherless, then yeah, I'm a bigot

I'm not even a victim here

I just think you're a hypocrite and a bad person

@Vigil You were called out for dishonesty with the Bible, sir. Try being a man and just admitting you were out of line.

I quoted the Bible

Elisha and the Two Bears

@Vigil You LIED with the Bible, and you know it, by quoting out of context, and mischaracterizing it. You're still maintaining that lie. And playing victim.

Max?

You COMPLETELY misdescribed it, and you did it just to be malicious.\

Elisha and the Two Bears is a story where a man is made fun of by children for being bald and he summons two bears to kill them

Where does it say that this room is for repeatedly calling someone a liar until they yield?

It's in the Bible

@Vigil No, that is NOT what the story is about.

23 Then he went up from there to Bethel; and as he was going up by the way, young lads came out from the city and mocked him and said to him, “Go up, you baldhead; go up, you baldhead!” 24 When he looked behind him and saw them, he cursed them in the name of the LORD. Then two female bears came out of the woods and tore up forty-two lads of their number. 25 And he went from there to Mount Carmel, and from there he returned to Samaria.

Explain to me how I "read the Bible wrong" please

https://answersingenesis.org/bible-questions/elisha-little-children-and-the-bears/

He still killed like 42 people for calling him names

Yes @RyeNorth that is pretty accurate.

So now, @Vigil will you please apologize for your completely hateful mangling of the story?

Off to the Church now, where my son and I will be doing our Bible reading. Laterz!

It wasn't a hateful mangling. He killed 42 people through the power of God because they called him names.

Have a nice time at Church. Please listen to the scripture.

My lord.

We have a virtue signaling CJW. o_o

Lmao

👌

Well I'm going to church on a tuesday because you're wrong!

I like how even the most charitable reading of that passage is 42 people getting maimed for shitposting

I'm still stuck on the fact a grown man with a wife and child just said "Laterz"

I put the perfect reaction. 😄

I concur

When the crux of your argument is

What would I know though, I'm just a poor fatherless buffoon who's uneducated.

YOU'RE A LIAR

You might want to sit down, take a deep breath, formulate your thoughts, and reconsider posting in Debate.

"There are many ways to interpret these passages, just not the ones I disagree with" is a sentiment I see often

Like, that was NOTHING but effing name-calling. No substance.

Most of that shit's mistranslated anyway.

Even though I... literally graduated from a Catholic college doing a course focusing around Christian theology.

Lol he started with it yesterday

He made fun of me multiple times for having no father. He's not a Christian

Naah

Said Cipher had a shallow idiotic reading of scripture after fabrics were brought up

The sad part is, he probably IS a christian.

He's one of a large number of people who believe they're Christian

Let's not get NTS in here

Hol' up.

So are the minority of Islamists that are blowing themselves up in the name of Allah the actual Muslims?

Of course not

K. Just checking.

Making sure you were being consistent.

Although, to be fair

Majority does not equate to correctness

I believe the true meaning of Islam is a peaceful one at its core, but even if I'm wrong, the majority of people I've met who associate themselves with being Islamic are well-meaning and lovely people

I mean, yeah.

If you truly think your beliefs are correct, then the beliefs of others shouldn't be a concern to you.

Well, if you truly think your beliefs are correct, you'd try and be helpful to others

Rather than berate them for real life factors out of their control

Well, yeah. Sure.

Especially in a religion of love

We're not on about that anymore, right? I'll move on from that

But with the existence of an Abrahamic God, justice is ordained in the afterlife.

As I said, the difference between 'God will punish you for that...' and 'I've been sent by God to punish you.'

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YkgkThdzX-8&ab_channel=johnlennon Get your lighters up motherfuckers, I love humanity

Eff that song.

Lmao, I post it mainly memeing but I like the sentiment of us actually being unified

'Imagine' is overrated. Change my mind.

Songs about Communism for 400, trebek!

Oh it's definitely overrated, it's a good song though

And yeah, "Imagine no possessions" made me double-take

I think he's more speaking against materialist attitudes though

Imagine there's no countries

Not material property as a whole

Imagine all the people sharing all the world

I get what you mean

It's literally communist propaganda.

Lennon stated: "'Imagine', which says: 'Imagine that there was no more religion, no more country, no more politics,' is virtually the Communist Manifesto, even though I'm not particularly a Communist and I do not belong to any movement."

I suddenly don't like the song

🔴 💊

Lmao

A better song, then

Get moving

<:RedPill:489181017064865833>

There we go.

> kill 42 children using bears for insulting someone
"that's bad"

> maiming 42 young/immature adults using bears for insulting someone

"See? the is the almighty good god"

glad we found the line. -.-
