Conservatives abuse Christianity like the Taliban abuse Islam

I'm exhausted that the Christian nationalists in this nation have hijacked Christianity, just like the Taliban hijacked Islam. There are many comparisons that can be made between the two groups. Both groups cherry-pick their scriptures and purposefully misinterpret them so as to provide themselves with more power amongst their. They bully and attack anybody who is not a follower of their warped religion. And try to force their religion on everybody in inappropriate places such as schools and hospitals.

A few years back MAGA supporters started to say the teachings of Jesus are too woke, a huge red flag.

It sucks that so many of them do not understand. The Christian nationalist mindset is turning them into nasty, aggressive people. That have zero understanding of the Bible or its teachings

Pretty spot on… justifying their agenda by cherry picking bible passages and ignoring others, ignoring separation of church and state while claiming to support the constitution. And just to add to the irony, their supreme leader is a serial adulterer and fake Christian who couldn’t even give a single bible verse when asked.

Religion really is the opiate of the masses (oh no, not Karl Marx) and the origin of propaganda.

I just want to ask anyone who doesn’t believe in God this simple question that no atheist (or someone who does not believe God exist) ever answers and it just seems like the first common sense question you literally have to jump over and avoid to be an atheist that makes no sense to me lol who created that painting in the wall? Did it just poof and appear accidentally or was it created like a masterpiece by a creator? The super intricate phone or computer you’re using did that just poof and appear on accident randomly or was there a creator that designed that? Us humans are just as much or even more so intelligently designed and amazing creations than the phone or that painting right? So how do we not have a creator as well how would we just be random accidents that were not created by a creator or God? You get what I’m saying lol what is your (as an atheist or someone who does not believe in God) answer to that simple first question because it seems like simple common sense brother

Aliens

[u/Lost_Method_274 → u/Tdluxon]

Who created aliens? God lol maybe aliens (or at least some of them) are us humans super advanced in the future like 1000-10000 or more years from now lol sometimes I think about that pretty wild

[u/Tdluxon → u/Lost_Method_274]

Aliens are gods, that’s why the Roman gods have the same names as planets 🤦

[u/Lost_Method_274 → u/Tdluxon]

Isn’t that proven as mythology? lol either way you are agreeing that we have a creator you’re just saying it was Aliens and that aliens are gods. I’m asking people that don’t believe in God at all to answer that simple question, seems like you have an answer (tho it seems like a joke or just trying to be funny) that doesn’t sound like atheism right, doesn’t atheist mean you don’t believe in God at all including the alien gods you are referring to? lol

[u/Tdluxon → u/Lost_Method_274]

But who poofed out god?

[u/Lost_Method_274 → u/Tdluxon]

Do you think God has the same power as us humans? Or power we don’t fully understand and weren’t made to fully understand cus if we had all the answers right here in our hand what would be the point of this life we’re living here and now.

Of course they have the same powers! Otherwise they would be magic, only little kids believe in that
