Welcome to c/Christianity

"Let it be very clear, then, that when the church preaches social justice, equality, and human dignity; when the church defends those who suffer poverty or violence, this is not subversive nor is it Marxism. This is the authentic magisterium of the church.

Sad to see the Anglican church has sided with Hamas.

Actually that dude is catholic (says so in the chiron)

[–] 420LetPobedy@hexbear.net 22 points 2 years ago

You're thinking of the Archbishop of Canterbury who is Anglican, the dude in the pic is the Archbishop of Westminster who is Catholic, easy mistake to make

You think the IDF would do that? Just murder civilians and then lie about it?

It just feels utterly surreal to read "ISRAEL-HAMAS WAR" headline over the story "Israeli snipers execute woman for trying to take a shit, then execute her small child for going to check on her."

Like, where the fuck even is Hamas in all this? Every story that comes out of the conflict is just a different kind of war crime by the Israelis.

Hamas has 1/5 the number of ~~prisoners~~ hostages as Israel has Palestinian prisoners, so Israel has no choice but to murder a mother and child for shitting!

This doesn't change the point at all but just for the record, it wasn't a small child, it was an elderly woman and her adult daughter.

Ok, but they were worshiping a man named Jesus H. Christ. Ask yourself what the H in his name stands for and then you'll realize why we had to kill them

[–] EmmaGoldman@hexbear.net 9 points 2 years ago

Sorry to report but the H stands for Hitler.

Well he was Jewish so... Herschel?

[–] blakeus12@hexbear.net 6 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

think again.

H stands for Hamas. Here's why.

it's an acronym for Jesus's beliefs

H - Hell (is bad)

A - Apples (taste delicious)

M - MYou can't worship false idols

A - Ants should not be stomped on

S - Sing the praises of God
