Yeah, that was what was taught in my home school ""history"" class
My parents still believe in the shit
The nonsense of that is a big part of what drove me to becoming an atheist. That and being trans and bi, the bible is very clear about what it thinks should happen to LGBTQ people and it frustrates me so much when people try to pretend that Christianity isn't inherently bigoted and homophobic
The queerphobia is honestly just the tip of the awful shit that book justifies. Deeply evil religion and god, right from the start.
Honestly it's kind of surprising to me that we have a Christianity comm on this site. Like it's a irredeemable religion full of so much heinous shit anyone who calls themself a leftist should be opposed to it
People don't like calling a spade a spade when it comes to religion. For some reason you get a pass if you couch it as a religious belief. I'm supposed to be civil to people who think its justified for me to be tormented forever.
The god of the bible supports slavery and genocide and is a disgusting monster. he's the most evil character I have ever heard of.
Also I just blocked that comm when I first joined, do people post there?
It doesn't really get that many posts, like only a couple per month
There was a general megathread posted there two weeks ago though
Idk liberation theology was a thing in south-America no? I'm not wellversed at all on this subject.
So? That doesn't even come close to making up for all of the horrible shit done in the name of Christianity
people on this site say "liberation theology" to defend Christianity like Kanye fans say "he made graduation."
Liberation theology is just trying to polish a turd
Extremely relatable, also had this kind of home school classes. The average person who just likes the selected pieces of Jesus's dialogue they've heard doesn't grasp how shitty the Abrahamic religions are in the source material. I have more leeway with the people who just never cared and think of themselves as part of a religion because that's how they were raised, IDK how a person exists like that but it seems to be the majority.
Anyone who converts to a monotheism as an adult is a major major red flag, though. 'Returning' to the religion you were raised creates the worst people. Adult converts to a different flavour of your original religion, like protestant to orthodox, are the weirdest people. All of them are taking fundamentally anti-materialist views on the world as well as choosing to ignore the racism, sexism, homophobia, genocide, etc.
