"Intersex people don't exist. Stop making up words. If a baby has multiple sex charistics then OF COURSE surgical intervention is needed to force a binary choice. God doesn't make mistakes, but sometimes he does a whoopsie."
These people refuse to understand human biology because their goddamn Bible has already told them everything they want to know. Yet they have the gall to laughingly repeat "iT's bAsiC BiolOgY" without a clue to their ignorance.
I'm pretty sure they haven't even read the Bible at this point.
Reading and comprehension are two different things. They have likely read the bible. If they believe in hell and quote Leviticus as though it represents Christian law then they have failed to comprend it.
They had their stories preached to them by their pastor, they haven't read shit. 54% of American adults read below a 6th grade comprehension level. These people operate on their own fan fiction and head canon.
Geez, that link is damning.
They think this sounds quippy like they're in a sitcom, whereas really they sound like an under-educated five year old
God doesn't shit, but sometimes he does a poo poo.
I want so badly what they mean by woopsie. Like....if God is capable of an woopsie, then he is not infallible.
So....is he God or not?
If God is infallible we'd all believe in him, ipso facto, he doesn't exist.
I can't tell if that intersex quote is real or not.
The crazy has become so normal i can't be sure.
I actually doubt the Bible goes into gender identity. It’s all pure bigotry.
It doesn't but Jesus does he's pretty clear he says
'be fuckin nice to people you shit heads"
i may be paraphrasing but that is what he's trying to get across
Jesus was based.
literally we gotta take him back tbh
dude was a highly sarcastic political activist who was mocking the roman emperor and got killed for it.
when he said drink my blood, eat my flesh. dude was tongue in cheek mocking the cults at the time being so dramatic and also embracing this identity that Jewish people are evil and use curses and blood magic shit.
His mom was next level. Gets drunk, fucks around, gets pregnant. She tells people that the kid is actually the son of a god and people eat that shit right up. Joseph though.. That poor guy had to be in some serious denial. That dude was probably like Charlie from Me, Myself & Irene.
I don't remember it being prominent but there are a shitload of bizarre rules.
“If your right hand causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away.”
If masturbation is a sin, there should be a fuck ton of one handed christians out there.... Just sayin'.
If they are going to believe in a god but then deny, abuse and destroy nature, which could only be thought of as their god's expression in physical form, doesn't that make these people blasphemous heretics by their own definition? Unfortunately, these "religious" fucks are just liars who in reality think they know better than whatever god they act like they believe in. They'll abuse and destroy anything in their path because to them noone and nothing has actual value. The only important thing to them is their own imagined version of the divine.
People seem to think religious people do things because their religion demands them. That is not how this works.
Their id demands it. Their ego demands it. Then in the cold light of morning. They had to do it. For God.
