must consider whether the displayed flag or banner illustrates or shows someone’s opinion, emotions, beliefs, or thoughts regarding politics, economics, society, faith, or religion.”
So that means nothing about Christianity then, right?
While there are zero prophecies left to be fulfilled, AND like five of them have been fulfilled in the last decade, if there is a supernatural Jesus to come back, we still have a long way to go to match the worldwide suffering seen in Revelations before Jesus’s return.
Not exactly wrathful, more like, he shows up when there’s a lot of ambient wrath going on. Mainly he just resurrects all who died in faith and sets up a judgment throne.
And he won’t kill them, just they don’t get heaven. The sheep and goats judgment. The section that “What you have done to the least of those, you have done to me” comes from there.
Honestly I think the existential suffering brought about by realizing that they have no place in heaven after a lifetime of religious lip service is FAR more poignant than any death could be
Not that most lemmings think this is anything more than a long repeated fairy tale, granted
“Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past.”
The assholes know what they are doing. They know they are hypocritical. They don’t care. You cannot engage in conservatives/anti-semites/fascists/et al with reason because they will not argue in good faith. They are bad people. Selfish, fearful, people.
Seems to me like flags are usually political and/or ideological in nature… That’s, like, one of the main reasons we use flags at all. The US flag is political, the Idaho flag is political, banners that say “Merry Christmas” are gonna have to be left out of schools, even “Happy Birthday” is going to read like religious favoritism to someone like a Jehovah’s Witness. Especially if the Christofascist snowflakes can’t even be bothered to put up with “Everybody is welcome here”. Why would anyone else feel inclined to put up with their shit?

Remember when schools were having a War On Christmas and removing all signs on Christianity and Christmas displays? So much that South Park made strawmen of the schools to make fun of. Pure projection.

I’m pretty sure Jesus would be on board with the “everyone is welcome” message.
Actual Jesus would be in CECOT by now.
Given the demographic they are going after, I wouldn’t be at all surprised to find out that a few people named Jesus got sent to CECOT already
I think they would have just murdered him again, tbh.
Although when Jesus comes back he’s supposed to be wrathful, so he’d probably kill all the Christians who use his name for hate as his first act.
He needs to hurry the fuck up and stop taking the scenic route back.

Pretty sure if Jesus came back today conservative evagenlicals would send him to a concentration camp
Time for the sartre quote again.
