I look forward to Christians saying this is blasphemous and it subsequently being made illegal. As is tradition.

Christian here, I don't understand why anyone would object to this lol

Could you... I dunno, just talk to other Christians? Tell them they're being silly on stem cells, women's health, the age of the Earth, evolution, LGBTQ+ people, and much more?

And could you please, please, please get them to finally actually read those Bibles gathering dust on their bookshelves? Help them discover for themselves that Jesus has a lot to say about hypocrisy and nothing to say about gay people? Maybe they'll also discover that God doesn't help those who help themselves, but instead commands his followers to help each other?

I think the other Christians may have other issues that need resolving first if they believe that this is something that should be stopped or hindered.

Christianity as a religion is laudable.

Christianity as a political ideology is terrifying.

[-] TheBananaKing@lemmy.world -2 points 1 year ago

Religion IS political ideology.

[-] Hardeehar@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

I believe it can work inwardly and be separate from politics. In reality, though, I don't think it can.

[-] TheBananaKing@lemmy.world -1 points 1 year ago

No, I mean they're the same thing.

It's a bunch of ideology, doctrine, a platform, people get irrationally defensive and tribal about it, 85% of people follow the same one their parents / peers do, etc etc.

Only difference is the top guy tends to be invisible and impossible to vote out.

Hey, that makes sense.

I was seeing "political" and misunderstanding it.
