Billionaires usually being proclaimed followers of Christ is so ironic since Jesus preached about giving away all your belongings before joining him.

As someone who was raised by conservative evangelicals but actually read the bible instead of cherry picking from it, Jesus hated the rich and would fuck them up with a whip in a rage.

@trinityblair 100%

I left the church because I was tired of the hypocrisy, but I've always said that Yeshua was actually pretty cool and had some really really good and important things to say, and most Christians should probably actually pay attention?? instead of using religion as an excuse for horrible horrible bigotry and violence?? maybe??

@nofunoverlord @trinityblair I mean #God from bible is actually quite a fucking evil beast.

#Christians at some point were like. Wait a minute #Jews. This god from old #testament is worse than satan. Lets introduce #Jesus who is a mild version of god from old testament.

A lot of #religions around the world were built to control and abuse people. Same as #political movements and concept of global #economy. Its all to enslave majority to give power to minor group who have the power.

@grayrattus @trinityblair yeah I say throw the old testament out? most Christians spend more time listening to it (fucking awful? and like.... god did not write those books? people did??), or listening to the letters from Paul than they do actually listening to Christ?

@nofunoverlord @trinityblair but its the same god. If you don't believe in old testament as words from god you have no background to believe that Jesus was a messiah.

Jesus without old testament is just random dude who was killed for his beliefs xd

@grayrattus @nofunoverlord you're expected to believe the entire bible is the "word of god", doesn't make it true.
@trinityblair @grayrattus 100%!!! those aren't gods words they're just words of people writing shit down! the book of Genesis was probably just some fucking fiction book someone was writing in the year 800
@nofunoverlord YES! 100%
@trinityblair some guy in 800 hearing voices like "what's this then? must be god speaking"

@nofunoverlord 😆 It's basically like fan-fiction at this point.

I take that back... it's an insult to fan-fiction.

@trinityblair lolol yeah , absolutely though

any surviving scrolls and shit are all tightly controlled by the catholic Church, and it's been translated from a translation of a translated translation. it's like a great game of telephone

god: "no no, I didn't say hate the gays I said love the gays"

@trinityblair god: *talks to prophets to set the story straight*

prophets: *gets institutionalized*
