as a basis yeah, not that churchy people are any better humans. those types generally have repressed sexualities which can lead to marital woes.

2019-03-25 03:00:53 UTC  

Well, now we're getting into the weeds about Christian denominations

2019-03-25 03:01:56 UTC  

sure, quakers seem to handle everything better imo. catholics probably worst due to the whole confessional set up

2019-03-25 03:02:08 UTC  

oof

2019-03-25 03:02:20 UTC  

Quakers are the reason we have Progressivism

2019-03-25 03:02:31 UTC  

So, no

2019-03-25 03:02:44 UTC  

I'd argue the opposite

2019-03-25 03:03:30 UTC  

But that's a discussion for another time

2019-03-25 03:04:03 UTC  

perhaps, i've been babtized lutheran but been relatively agnostic the last 30 years or so

2019-03-25 03:04:57 UTC  

i know nothing of quakers except what has been portrayed in tv and to me it really seemed appealing. other denominations seem to take everything way too seriously where as quakers just meditate during their 'sermons'

2019-03-25 03:07:14 UTC  

@TwinVickers Check this book out.

It talks about the "Quaker question" as I put it

https://www.unqualified-reservations.org/2008/04/open-letter-to-open-minded-progressives/

2019-03-25 03:07:41 UTC  

I'm not suggesting there's an elaborate conspiracy by Quakers or anything

2019-03-25 03:08:23 UTC  

But their ideological foundations have had a huge impact in American history, and the roots of Progressivism and international interventionism can be traced to it quite easily

2019-03-25 03:10:06 UTC  

fair enough, i haven't really delved that deep into it. to me it seems that the message in the new testament has been perverted into something very different. it seems christians are very eager to judge their fellow man rather than try to understand and love

2019-03-25 03:10:34 UTC  

Fair enough, I guess

2019-03-25 03:10:48 UTC  

Maybe a little bit of column A and B

2019-03-25 03:13:26 UTC  

i'm not talking about newboro babtist either, just the general feel when i read what religious people write online. then again it is online and you really have to take everything with a grain of salt you reed online. especially social media.

2019-03-25 03:13:43 UTC  

reed, i'm typing phonetically it seems

2019-03-25 03:13:56 UTC  

Westboro lol

2019-03-25 03:14:28 UTC  

Yeah, I just found out that some Christians don't take a literal view of the Bible, in the past 2 years.

2019-03-25 03:15:19 UTC  

I went 24 years thinking a majority of Christians were like Evangelicals and Young Earth Creationists

2019-03-25 03:20:53 UTC  

i'm really not that well versed in christian denominations. i have a basic understanding what makes a catholic person different from a mormon or a protestant

2019-03-25 03:51:53 UTC  

There are tons of Denominations and sub-denominations...and yea, the overwhelming majority don't take the bible litterally

2019-03-25 04:10:22 UTC  

Atheism is also an ancient thing. It's not "only 100-200 years that atheism has even been a thing."
Stop lying.

2019-03-25 04:10:39 UTC  

Now it has raised in the general population dramatically during the last 100-200 years.

2019-03-25 04:10:46 UTC  

That is a point that you can make honestly.

2019-03-25 04:11:21 UTC  

Ever since anyone ever said, "God did it," there has always been someone to say, "bullshit".

2019-03-25 04:24:51 UTC  

@Grodd You are correct.

The other guy should read up on some Greek philosophers

2019-03-25 04:29:49 UTC  

you are one rude fuck grodd, you need to stop calling people liars

2019-03-25 04:30:21 UTC  

also you might consider the context before talking shit

2019-03-25 04:31:46 UTC  

Context is for goyim plebs

2019-03-25 04:31:59 UTC  

i don't know what that means

2019-03-25 04:32:38 UTC  

@Grodd did psychology exist in ancient greece?

2019-03-25 04:33:57 UTC  

Yes

2019-03-25 04:35:00 UTC  

well scientologists say it's older than the human race. i'm under the impression that it's only few hundred years old science

2019-03-25 04:35:12 UTC  

but even if i'm wrong, that's a long way from fucking lying

2019-03-25 04:35:17 UTC  

The only real advances we've made as a species in the past few thousand years are industrial and clinical

2019-03-25 04:36:08 UTC  

i'd argue science isn't a genetic advance

2019-03-25 04:36:17 UTC  

<:thronk:441701565607444482>

2019-03-25 04:36:23 UTC  

I didn't say it was

2019-03-25 04:36:32 UTC  

well you mentioned species
