My mans you’re like 30 paragraphs into arguing that Mike Johnson is a Christian and that he should not be narrowed out of that category. You then listed a bunch of grievances that categorized a lot of good critiques on Catholic Church. As a Catholic we’ve always been extremely strict on who gets called that title: there’s a bunch of boxes to check. As far as Christian’s go, that’s anyone with faith in the Bible. People who believe, study, and embody the words of Jesus. That can’t be Mike Johnson.

It’s very fair for someone who was raised in many Christian churches to decide the virtue of another Christian. There are plenty of good Christian churches out there that produce good Christian’s. Mike Johnson has never been near one of them.

Thanks for coming to my ted talk. I will not be reviewing your arguments as I found them impotent angry and biased.

BS No true scottsman business. This is exactly what the pope example was. You think a person who helps an organization propagate heinous crimes falls under that definition?

Your definition is arbitrary, based on interpretation.

It’s very fair for someone who was raised in many Christian churches to decide the virtue of another Christian.

So then Its fair for me too right? Suddenly crickets.

Seems like that Christian spirit I've heard so much about.

You sound like an Austrian painter afraid of a banker.

Responding to me 3 times on one comment is legitimately psycho behaviour, and acting like calling out a no true scotssman fallacy is in anyway related to adolf hitler is childish and nonsensical.

Oh sorry I have ADD so sometimes I stop pooping make breakfast and then have another thought. You got your ass diddled in the church huh?

What psycho behavior is you foaming at the mouth making me wonder if you’re going to blow up a church at some point in the near future.

There are plenty of Christian churches whose hierarchies do not extend past the community they exist in. There are plenty of benevolent churches existing under the title Christian. Throw away the baby with the bath water to make your foul point but you sound like a Fox News anchor raving over Islam

If by plenty you mean a tiny minority then sure!

There are plenty of benevolent churches

Fucking lol to this idea. I've never seen something more ridiculous stated in such a matter of fact manner.

Thats funny, because thats exactly how you reveal yourself to think when you refuse to acknowledge that bad people can be christian.

[–] TronBronson@lemmy.world 0 points 3 hours ago

Sounds like you know everything about every one. You’ve been to every church, in every corner of the world. Your righteous anger is noted, the impotence and rage come through every post. I specifically agreed with your criticisms where they applied, certainly agree there are plenty of bad people claiming to be Christian’s. Just know real faithful people who live meek lives of service to others. People turn to religions for different reasons, some are indoctrinated at a young age. How they practice varies.

I do continue to find a lot of humor in your blatant bigotry and religious intolerance here in America.

[–] TronBronson@lemmy.world 0 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Idk: something about criticizing the individual and not the entire group of people you loosely associate together. Swap out any religion with what you’re saying and it’s problematic. Almost like demonizing wide swaths of people is wrong or something. You can bring logical fallacies into this but like bro I’m an old man. I don’t wanna have a college debate on religion with a brand new atheist with a point to prove lmao. Save that shit for someone who has a chance of being impressed. If you can’t understand that there is nuance in the topic then you’re not really the person to be wielding all those logical fallacies anyway my guy.

This comment doesnt make sense in context. You act like you're answering a question, but no question was asked for which this is an answer.

You also clearly are trying to pretend that somehow acknowledging that mike johnson is christian is the same thing as accusing every christian of being exactly like him, which is obviously and openly in bad faith.
