Guy who wants you to love thy neighbor and turn the other cheek, but still thinks old testament genocide, torture, maiming and murder of women and children is still ok, would scare me too.

havokdj,

That’s not exactly right, the new testament is literally the abolishing of the old testament

And yet it’s still part of the Christian Bible.

havokdj,

It’s only there for archival purposes, you can actually buy just the new testament which is the important part in christianity

samus12345,
@samus12345@lemmy.world avatar

That would be fine, except for the fact that it’s still constantly referred to by Christians.

Agreed, that’s how it should be, but so many jackasses cling on to it to fuel their hate and prejudice that can we really call it abolished?

Boo!

I love how this isn’t fixing anything at all

LemmyKnowsBest,

Right?? 🤣 I don’t own any editing software whatsoever so I did the best I could with what I had.

No no. I mean by switching places it makes an upside down cross, thus being a symbol of the devil 🙃

Maalus,

There is more cross under it, they just shopped the upper “arms” and left out the “trunk”.

captainlezbian,

Fun fact: the inverted cross is actually a holy symbol in Catholicism. St. Peter was crucified upside down and so it’s his cross

HootinNHollerin,

Wtf is up with the whole ’god fearing christian’ thing anyway? No way I’m going to buy into any belief where I’m supposed to fear the omnipresent being

ItsAFake,

Remember when you were a kid and you feared your parents wrath if you did something wrong, but then you grew up and didn’t need to have a parent scolding you? Well these people still need parenting by a big scary adult.

HootinNHollerin, (edited )

they really took the children of god thing literally

lars,

If it works for dictatorial despots who pay lip service, but nothing more, for their followers’ wellbeing, then why wouldn’t it work for the gods?

They mean it when they talk about the "fear of god"

lars,

and yet

fear of god

is technically and delightfully ambiguously either:

  • fear that others have of god
  • fear that god has of others
