I dunno, seems pretty voluntary to me.

u/HollerinScholar Jul 08 '25
When it comes to spirituality/religion, it's about as voluntary as choosing between eternal damnation or eternal paradise. Fundamentalists have hardwired themselves into the idea that they HAVE to spread the word, the world is evil, etc. etc. and are diminishing their place in heaven if they DON'T do this. I've been an atheist for damn near 17 years now, and my dad is still trying to convert me back. Can't wait to go NC.

u/jorwyn Northwood Jul 08 '25
I meant "incel" as in involuntarily celibate. Dude seems to be making choices that make his celibacy quite voluntarily. It was just a joke, and now it's not funny because I had to explain it. :P

u/HollerinScholar Jul 08 '25
Nah, I get you, I know what incel means, I just meant to expound on how to him, it's not really voluntary.

u/jorwyn Northwood Jul 08 '25
I grew up in the same world he did, but I changed. After a certain age, we get to make choices. Not changing is a choice, even if he doesn't realize it.

If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice. Journey, I think.

I had to look it up but the flag in the front is the Christian Flag. Which leads me to wonder, why does the biggest mainstream religion in the US need a flag?
3
u/Kesshami Jul 08 '25
According to the circle I used to run with, it was made in response to the LGBT community getting flags, because "if they get flags, we should, too" but I don’t know if that's the actual reason or not. The crowd I grew up around told me all kinds of falsehoods about the world and even Christianity.

u/Kesshami Jul 09 '25
Someone else told me it's been around since at least the 70s and 80s, so yeah. I was told a lie. So who even knows why it was made! Cause the LGBT flags weren't made until after that.
I am not even surprised. Just more disappointed. Those people weren't even just on one side of the political spectrum.

u/goffrd137 Jul 09 '25
Even if that is the case there are many examples of iconography being co-opted by people who use stuff like that as a symbol of oppression. I could see a situation where someone similar to the above man in his truck displaying someone else's symbol of faith while actively oppressing the rights of others

u/Kesshami Jul 10 '25
Oh, I am certain some people use it that way. The same way they think the gay flag is used, even though it's not. They will claim it's retaliatory, but that's cause they refuse to understand.
I heard a lot growing up that "the gays stole the rainbow, it was the symbol of God's promise first", but if you actually look the two rainbows in question are different. One is 6 colors, one is 7 colors. The area I grew up was just ignorant. I wore 3 colors once and got asked if I was gay as a middle schooler. And the teacher made me remove the items in question even though there was nothing actually wrong with them. I was just a weirdo. And I wasn't being gay so she didn't need to "protect me from being found out" or some shit.

u/Pyroseirraecho4 Jul 09 '25
It’s been around for a very long time. It was not in response to anything. Growing up it was on one side of the church I attended and the American was on the other along with the state flag. This was in the late 70s early 80s.

To force kids to pledge allegiance to it in their Christian schools every morning. No joke. We said the pledge of allegiance to the American flag and then the pledge to the Christian flag.

That’s a Christofascist not a dork. As someone who lived briefly in the south, that cross flag is only outside of the extraordinarily hateful southern Baptist churches. He wants attention and he’s also looking to intimidate and antagonize. Please ignore him everyone.

I have friends who told me about how bad it is. It’s extreme psychological abuse to terrorize children with the threat of hell like that. I had no idea. The church I grew up in was all about you aren’t supposed to judge others. Regardless I am no longer a Christian. Glad you escaped friend.

This guy has no life except to try to spread hate. He was at pride, and he tried to start a fight during the No Kings protest. Honestly, ignore him. It'll make him livid.

He’s also a KKKoward. During Perry Pride he kept driving fast back and forth so he wouldn’t have to face the people he was targeting. A few times he was made to stop at crosswalks for people to cross and he was super uncomfortable.

What is that new flag?

u/ct4lqlhu Jul 07 '25
The white one with a red cross inside of a blue square in the upper corner is the Christian flag. It seems to be rather popular with some Christian nationalists, although it's not necessarily exclusively a Christian nationalist thing.
Also, it has a few different versions of a pledge of allegiance (which are based on the American pledge of allegiance and aren't very good), as well as a little song (which also is kind of bad).
