About

This is the official Lemmy for the r/ReligiousCringe***** subreddit. This is a community about poking fun at the religious fundamentalist's who take their religion a little bit too far. Here you will find religious content that is so outrageous and so cringeworthy that even someone who is mildly religious will cringe.

Rules

  1. All posts must contain religious cringe. All posts must be made from a religious person or must be showcasing some kind of religious bigotry. The only exception to this is rule 2

  2. Material about religious bigots made by non-bigots is only allowed from Friday-Sunday EST. In an effort to keep this community on the topic of religious cringe and bigotry we have decide to limit stuff like atheist memes to only the weekends.

  3. No direct links to religious cringe. To prevent religious bigots from getting our clicks and views directs links to religious cringe are not allowed. If you must a post a screenshot of the site or use archive.ph. If it is a YouTube video please use a YouTube frontend like Piped or Invidious

  4. No Proselytizing. Proselytizing is defined as trying to convert someone to a particular religion or certain world view. Doing so will get you banned.

  5. Spammers and Trolls will be instantly banned. No exceptions.

The hardest thing to believe about this is the cops taking my side on anything

The issue here is that they think "The Bible is the word of God and i believe what it says" and "I hate gay people and wish they would all die" mean the same thing.

When the bible is the one saying gay people should die, it kinda does.

The saving grace is that most people who say that don't actually mean it, as they either haven't really read it, or have made enough mental gymnastics to ignore the stuff they don't agree with.

I mean, does it not? Christianity is hateful as fuck when you don't sugarcoat it.

It does not

36 “Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?”

37 Jesus replied: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’[a] 38 This is the first and greatest commandment. 39 And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’[b] 40 All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.”

Matthew 22:36-40

If the second greatest commandment is to love your neighbor as yourself, then hate has no place in Christianity.

"When you're accustomed to privilege, equality feels like oppression."

It isn't your belief in a god that is considered hate speech, it is you trying to implement your religious views into laws that is the problem.

Isn't it illegal to believe in God in some parts of the world?

And it's illegal to NOT believe in God in other parts.

[–] 520@kbin.social 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

In what countries is it illegal to believe in God?

[–] otp@sh.itjust.works 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Off the top of my head, I want to say North Korea. It might be the only country.

[–] Thranduil@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Well it was illegal to believe in gods back in the middle ages unless it was the biblical god.

How long? Hopefully sooner than later
