    Shiver me timbers, the God that doesn’t bother preventing rape and genocide may lift a finger against me. Must mean I’m a good guy.

    I saw this thing once where a christian group had done an experiment where they interviewed people and they found that “people who said they didn’t believe in god felt uneasy when saying it” and used that to conclude that they were afraid of gods judgement. No you fucking idiots. They’re uneasy about YOU!!!

    The shear lack of cognitive empathy here is mind blowing. They cannot fathom a world in which they might be wrong. I mean there’s faith and then there is this. I have faith the sun will rise tomorrow, but I can imagine a scenario, however contrived, where that doesn’t happen.

        I mean, that’s sort of by design.

        The God of the New Testament throws fights all the time. All their favorite people are Martyrs. The greatest hits mostly involve dying and then doing benign miracles from beyond the grave.

    Idk if god isn’t some morally bankrupt joke and actually thought about my life, I think I’d be ok, I volunteer regularly, I give to charity, I like to do random acts of kindness, I’m always ready to lend a hand or a shoulder to cry on. I believe very strongly in the power of community and I’m a lot more culturally christian than most believers I know, I like all the love your neighbor stuff, do unto others, what we do to the least of us… I feed the hungry, I give drink to the thirsty, I welcome the stranger, I clothe the naked, the only one I don’t do is visit those in prison. If god is a good and moral being, I’ll be ok and if it turns out they don’t exist, well I’ll have lived a good life

    But if you are a Christian, God might come and randomly tell you to murder your child or randomly rape you wife and you shall be fully accepting of that reality.

      That’s unrealistic. You can’t rape your wife. You own her. It’s like saying masturbation is raping yourself. - MAGA

        I should have made the grammar explicit:

        • God might come and randomly tell you to murder your child
        • God might randomly rape you wife

        And yeah, if you are masturbating while not wanting to masturbate and don’t like it, then you are raping yourself.

      Fully knowing that God is testing you, as part of a six way parlay against Satan God placed on Kalshi.

      You’ll sacrifice a pure white lamb in your son’s stead. Or your best friend’s wife will secretly be into rape-play or something. Then you’ll continue to be one of the Chosen and blessings will accrue to you endlessly.

      Point is it’ll all work out in the end. Or, if it doesn’t, God hasn’t really selected you to go to Heaven from the moment of your birth, so there’s nothing you could have done anyway.

        well… not particularly into heaven anyway, so better of going with not trying in that direction.

    I believe it as much as I believe “regional management is in the area so be ready for a visit.” Believe it when I see it.
