    I’m 100% convinced that if Christ came today the majority of white American Christians would call him a demon and one of them will end up shooting him. Especially if he came back as a man of color that spread anti-capitalist ideas and hung out with the poor, sick, and unwanted. They’d never, ever, tolerate that.

    IF Christianity is true, a large amount of souls of self-proclaimed “Christians” are in danger of damnation. They are actually doing Satan’s work for him. The issue are the ones 100% certain they are “saved” while spouting racist, evil things at the same time. How do you talk to people like that? How do you convince them that they are in fact 100% wrong and likely going to the same hell they claim everyone else is going to? I’m an atheist, so most wouldn’t even take me seriously.

    If there’s one thing everyone can say about Trump, it’s “this guy isn’t on my side”.

    It just takes longer and comes as more of a surprise to some than others.

      Well, some say money talks, and I’m sure Trump’s on the side of the Dollar 😛

      But considering how many people he have thrown under the bus so far, it’s amazing how many that are still waiting in line

    So many older people tend to wonder why the younger generation do not support religion yet this headline definitely should give you a clue.

    Imagine thinking the teachings of a man who is supposed to the son of the literal God they worship is weak.

    Imagine the disrespect those people are throwing when they insult the man who died for your sins according to their faith.

    If I were God, I most certainly would not let those people into heaven because clearly they don’t understand that you aren’t supposed to absolutely disrespect his teachings through Jesus if you want to go up and not down.

      I’m not familiar with Raw Story, can anybody confirm their reliability in general? This article seems solid but the name makes me think of all of those weird right wing “news” websites. Looking over it a bit it definitely doesn’t seem to be one of those though so idk.

        I take all articles with a grain of salt. Look at the person who wrote the article, look at what they post and think for yourself if that person has bias or not.

        Most of the time people will have a bias which is normal for humans, we tribilize into groups.

          And there’s also Occam’s razor. MAGA shitheads are hateful. This is probably true on that alone. But I’ve also seen a couple other articles of Christian’s alarmed at the same trend. The truthiness is strong. I can feel it.
