    It’s literally not possible to both follow the teachings of Christ and support a Genocide such as the one the Zionists are commiting.

    In fact, the same applies to the followers of the Jewish Religion itself: of the commandments from God, Zionists regularly break at the very least:

    • Thou shalt not murder.
    • Thou shalt not steal.
    • Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor.
    • Thou shalt not covet anything that belongs to thy neighbor.

    Whatever the fuck those people are, it’s not true followers of the teachings of the religion they claim to belong to.

      I bet they think it only applies to humans and see muslim believers as not human.

      You can interpret religion how you need it, it is the whole point of religion, in my opinion.

      I think any religion is just a manipulation tool (which of course can be used to manipulate people to be “good” as well)

      Nothing better than something that can’t be proven wrong.

      Yeah, true, but these particular Zionists have based their religious beliefs on the supposed infallibility of one old dude in Rome. It’s one thing to do tons of mental gymnastics to avoid seeing brown people as human beings, but it’s another to disagree with dude X when your whole religion is built on unconditionally agreeing with and obeying dude X.

        My point is that “mental gymnastics” is a standard way of thinking of most religious people.

        Having grown up in a Catholic country (but not being a believer myself), I have yet to find a Catholic who doesn’t daily do some mental gymnastics to balance the contradictions between the way they live life and the teachings of the religion they trull believe they follow.

        Merely once in a while when the Pope says something about it, coming up with some way to mentally handle the contradiction between what the Pope says and their own personal glee in an extremely Racist Genocide, is nothing compared with, say, their daily breaking of several of the Ten Commandments (generally Greed, Envy and Glutony) and going against the teachings of Christ.

        Most religious people are hypocrites, and they do it by not thinking hard about it (those who do, generally stop being religious, IMHO)
