DazharionSatan IS rad as hell
Tempus FugitSatan’s not out here murdering 168 school children. Christians are doing that.
toadI recall saying any of these words you’re putting in my mouth. Are you suggesting the people committing these atrocities are not what I say they are?
rockerface🇺🇦Organized religion is a very useful tool for imperialism and capitalism, and I’m tired of pretending it isn’t
Evangelical Christianity IS a manifestation of capitalism. It is the culture arm of capitalism.
It predate capitalism by a thousand year but ok.
You’re thinking of protestant, it’s not secret that allowing usury meant breaking up from the pope. But even then, religions are theaters of the class war, not only tools for the powerful.
Racism literally came from Christianity. It definitely is the problem and creates a framework to allow capitalists/wealthy to take advantage of people.
From Abrahamic religions in general. They seem to share the theme a lot
Imagine confusing Xenophobia with Racism. While there are some traditional cultural.groups that experience discrimination this does not translate to general racism like in the US or Europem.

Most African Americans experience more freedom in Japan than in Christian dominated cultures. Why is that?
Toad opens mouth and inserts foot.
Because japanese racism is mostly targetting chinese and korean whereas black people is presented to them through american medias, which they consider high culture.
Japan was allied with the nazis ffs
Glad we can put you silly comment about racism to rest
The US funded the Nazi for Christ’s sake. What is your point?
My point is that the US isn’t evil specifically because it’s christians and that religion isn’t the enemy.
My wife’s muslim and the fascists here would have no problem shipping her back to the very same place where extremists attempted to her life. In the name of atheism.
Literally has no clue about history. Sad.
I know all this. Ever heard of liberation theology? Religion is a theater of the classwar, not an enemy in itself.
Nowadays secularists want to “remigrate” my wife because she’s muslims.
So why is the Israeli government and IDF committing a genocide?
Because of nationalism and colonialism. They might use religious rhetoric where it suits them and there are religious people in government, I don’t deny that, but over all it’s a ethnic supremecist ideology and religion is only one identity marker, not the motivator.
And all of this is rooted in religious overtones. You take the religious aspects out and I doubt this would be happening. The ethnic supremacy is rooted in religion.
kroldenMurican patriotic rhetoric is full of liberty and the founding fathers and the flag and stuff. Do you think, without one of these elements, there would be no nationalism?
I’m not talking about the US.
samus12345Satan isn’t really much of a presence in the Bible at all. Christians made up more shit to have something to blame for everything they don’t like.
Wasn’t it that Satan did 4 things?
- A bit of arrogant rant that he is not gonna serve humans. Got thrown to hell. By all loving father. Yeah.
- Still prissy, nudged Eve to break the God rule abput apple. God hat a meltdown and not only banished but also cursed Adam amd Eve.
- Teased Jesus to break his goal. Didn’t work.
- Teased God on few occassions about devotion of humans. Then God made people suffer to prove his point.
Like, Lucifer always seemed to me more like disgruntled old family friend/worker than some evil guy.
The serpent being Satan was a retcon from the New Testament, too.
“I’m not in the business of murdering innocent children. That’s God’s jurisdiction.”
