Do you see now why atheists can ally with Christians?
Satanists can also ally with Christians.
Why not?
I don't know much if anything about satanism
Also, Sargon stating that Satanism is just anti-Christian is nonsense. Even though they don't worship Satan, they do value some of the characteristics attributed to him (or the Snake, depending on whether you consider them the same): freedom, knowledge, manipulation.
Christianity does not stand for freedom, knowledge or being subjected to manipulation by non-authority. Christianity stands for inverse: authority, rules and lack of access to reality.
God wanted humans to live in bliss of non-awareness.
Christianity does stand for freedom though
You can't sin if you're not free to choose
The Snake manipulated Eve to eat from **Tree of Knowledge**. Snake is freedom, knowledge and anti-authority. God is nothing like that.
No, there's a difference between allowing the pursuit of knowledge and pursuing knowledge
Christians allow the pursuit, they just don't always pursue it themselves
...and the punish for pursuit of knowledge "even though they allow it".
Only as long as you share the same living space, i.e. you're living under their roof, eating their food, sleeping in their bed
When you're gone and in your own place, you can think and say whatever you want
Well, if you apply that to a nation, you can have theocracy and claim that religious liberty is not infringed.
Because Christian shared economy
Christians tolerate the government, they don't like it
Governments are actually a false authority in their eyes
That's why they love checks and balances to democracy
Because their principles on this are firm and strong
Unlike those of atheists
See, sometimes you've got to take the bad with the good
Life is not black and white
I'm sure you know the criticism that Christians have of atheists, that their lack of belief is a weakness?
Making them vulnerable to false orophets?
prophets*
Yeah, they think not being insane is weakness. Much like I think being insane makes you insane.
If you think it proves insanity to believe in the Christian God then you have a lot to learn about humans
We literally have physical reactions to words
Is that insane?
We have physical reactions to neutral substances
If taken as part of a ritual
Our body chemistry changes when we experience fear
I'm wondering, when Sargon critiques Satanic Temple for being either
A) just against religion (rather than for anything) or
B) just for freedom (contradicting the previous)...
What is Sargon for and agaisnt?
He's against multiculti SJW religion.
And pro British Liberalism or some shit.
How is he different?
Sargon sometimes talks about things he doesn't understand
Just like most people
