Historically, the demographic most likely to sexually assault children is straight men.

Does that mean we should kill all the straight men?

This is something that will eventually Happen. It is already is happening “underground” they just use loopholes to get people killed. Look at the king of hill guy. That’s not just a one off thing. It’s social manipulation. It’s not just happening to them. They know what they are doing. We are already in a social psychological civil war, and it’s not random crazies… it’s people manipulated to go crazy, whether it’s someone murdering, suicides, or pressure that makes someone commit crimes so they end up in prison. This is America.

We often point out how modern christians would crucify Jesus again today, but they also hate listening to what he said in the Bible. Take the plank out of your own eyes you sorry excuses for people.

ws:Bible (King James)/Leviticus#Chapter 20

12 And if a man lie with his daughter in law, both of them shall surely be put to death: they have wrought confusion; their blood shall be upon them.

13 If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.

14 And if a man take a wife and her mother, it is wickedness: they shall be burnt with fire, both he and they; that there be no wickedness among you.

It says nothing about women who have sex with women, or men having sex with men while in a standing (or perhaps seated) position. Also, Leviticus doesn't use the word "homosexual" or "homosexuality" much less condemn it.

This fake-preacher lies about what the Bible says.

Evangelicals are Christofascists

Period

[–] phoenixz@lemmy.ca 21 points 2 days ago (1 children)

The Bible teaches that those people are worthy of death. They are supposed to be executed by the government. We are not to take the law into our own hands.

But, you know, if someone were to take matters in their own hands, we'll just wash out hands in innocence and act like we didn't do anything

It's almost like these people have never actually read the Bible.

Tax churches, make them keep playing the victim when they need to justify just how much they are fleecing from their congregation
