Wasn’t Jesus supposed to be like, a pacifist?
Sometimes he was. (Matthew 5:9)
Other times he was “if you don’t have a sword, sell your clothes to buy a sword” (Luke 22:36-38)
.
That’s the “great” thing about the Bible, its got enough cobtradictions that you can make it support pretty much anything you want it to.
Yep. That’s how I convinced a doctor to graft a leg into the middle of my back, so I can use it like a kickstand when I get tired.
Doc said no at first. When I told him Jesus said it was cool on page 148, he got me the best leg they had on hand!
Gotta trust in Jesus kids, you just gotta!
The issue is that they don’t care. They don’t care if the Bible says anything at all about the subject their on about or even if it contradicts them. What the Bible actually says is irrelevant to them, it’s only what their
glorious leaderspastors say it says matters.The root of faith is authoritarianism, not any branch of morality or reverence or regard for history or their mythology.
I blame cowboys. More specifically, the old western movies. The good guys were just living their lives however they wanted without any gub’ment telling them what to do, and when bad guys showed up, you just blasted them.
I’m pretty sure, in reality, it was a pretty terrible time to be alive, but the movies make it sound like a libertarian utopia.
They’ve twisted parts of the Bible involving Jesus and swords to mean that they should be violent and hateful.
You missed the verse that says AR-15s are a God-given right.
Not only that, he was basically a socialist.
It wasn’t Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden - it was Smith and Wesson.
He also told his possy to go buy a sword before they headed out.
Thats just a good friend.
jesus only approves of devices that can kill more than 100 humans per minute. praise the lord
“Praise the lord and pass the ammunition”
In fairness, I’ve always heard that quote in the context of negotiating with Nazis.
So this church seems a lot creepier than that quote, even.
Exactly.
While I love all of Dan Romer’s contributions to that game, as someone who’s studied cults, Ubisoft did such a disservice getting cults so wrong while Christian nationalism was taking over our Federal government.
It’s a recurring rant of mine.
Ubisoft may have not portrayed cults appropriately, but the soundtrack remained me of my childhood so much that it sold me. I still listen to it unironically, and probably unhealthy.
Naw, Romer nailed the rural gospel sound so hard. I put some of the FC5 soundtrack on my playlist as well.
Sword-mouth Jesus is going to look a bit out of place.
American ammosexuals are deeply fucked up
Ooh, ammosexuals is good. I’m gonna steal that one.
Share and enjoy; I stole it from someone else
Nice thing about not being tied to the Cult of Capital. Free sharing of things… at least the things it hasn’t figured out how to enforce monetization of, yet.
I mean… At least a black guy got it, so he can defend himself from, you know, the rest of the church
He doesn’t have to worry about them, “he’s one of the good ones.”
European here. Could some kind spirit explain? Did that guy get a gun gifted for visiting church? Or did he visit church with a gun and it got somehow automagically blessed cos it was there with him? Sry, scratching my head over these rituals.
It was some sort of Father’s Day contest or raffle and the winner got an AR-15. This isn’t even all that unusual.
If you search for AR-15 church, you’ll see a bunch of stories.
America is a very fucked-up place.
This one isn’t all that far, geographically speaking from the megachurch down in Springfield that brings in tanks and armored vehicles for their conferences on “christian manhood” (pardon the reddit link…)
In some real rural areas, you’ll have Sherrifs going up for election throwing raffles to buy votes, newer ideas are guns, but most of the time it’ll be meat (like a quarter of a cow, or maybe a full half if they have $ to throw around)
Here was me thinking it would be +1 Vs Vampires or something.
Only if you used wooden bullets.
I thought it was werewolf season! I only packed silver!
Thank you. Indeed it is.
Yeah, I’ve taken to replacing ‘United States’ with ‘American Dystopia’ in my vocabulary. At this point I wouldn’t be surprised if Brave New World would offer a more pleasant life.
Our religion is of love and peace and we’ll kill anyone who thinks otherwise -sincerely straight, white, American, Jesus.
I always like saying “no love like Christian love”
Its " there aint no hate like Christian love."
I brought my AR-15 with bump stock so I can protect my abortion rights. Am I pastoring correctly?
No because a bump stock makes it harder to shoot someone. They do nothing but make noise. It’s almost impossible to stay on target while bump firing.
This church’s slogan is “Spray’n’Pray”
You fuckin win. Lmao
Am I pastoring correctly?
Fucked any children today?
That’s preists, pastors beat their wives.
Not a comment on the story, but that dude is wide.
