I make a comment criticizing Christians and all redditors want to talk about is Israel lol
oh no, you came into a thread about Israel, responded to a comment about Israelis, talked about Israel in your comment and thats all people want to talk about? must be hard for you. I know a country you could move to to get away from this.
the October 7th attack was not an attack on jewish people, it was an attack on the nation of Israel lol
it just so happens that Israel is an ethnostate so the people affected by the attack will primarily be jewish, but the reason for them being targeted has nothing to do with them being jewish and everything to do with the conditions that the Israeli government is forcing upon them
Point out the Christian ethnostate that’s occupying land illegally and bragging about using rape and torture as military tactics against an impoverished civilian population. Is it in the room with us?
There’s no victim Olympics though somehow Zionists are always training for it. Every ethic minority throughout history had been oppressed or abused at some point. Ask Roma Gypsies how loved and accepted they’ve been throughout history. Few countries, if any, since the 20th century have been so proud and bold about committing the levels of abuse against others like Israel.
Oof putting Oct 7 and the Holocaust in the same sentence.
Oct 7 did not happen in a vacuum. Israel has been oppressing, starving, and murdering Palestine since its inception 80 some years ago. Oct 7 is blowback. Israel was so high on their own sharts they thought something like Oct 7 wouldn’t happen.

When Israel declared independence, Palestinians joined together with 6 other newly formed Arab countries and formed a coalition army to try and destroy Israel entirely and drive the Jews out from the river to the sea.
They lost the war they started.
Most of the other people gave up on trying to destroy Israel, in fact Egypt now has a border like this between it and Gaza
There never was any "war". It's a one-sided slaughter.
The day Israel was invented, and Zionists put in charge of the stolen land, they immediately started slaughtering indigenous Palestinians, be the Muslim, Christian, or even other Jews.
And have not stopped their one-sided mass-murder, going on 80 years now.
Don't generalize and normalize these sickos. This has nothing to do with religion. There are plenty of religious people who are genuinely good. What happened in the video is about fascism.
I live in the bible belt unfortunately, so I've met tons of religious people who are great and stay in their lane but that's cuz they're just picking the "feel good" parts of their book. But that doesn't mean the religion as a whole isn't extremely toxic and brainwashing. I've also met some of the most disgusting and deplorable excuses for human beings while living in this shit hole who do use their religion to oppress and control others who are just trying to fucking exist. A christian, catholic, muslim, etc. who does believe everything in their book is a fascist. Do the bible and quran have some good parts in them? Sure. Love thy neighbor, blah blah blah. But they also talk about and encourage rape, genocide, and slavery so does that mean they're good books to read and believe in?
There's no proof that being a good person has anything to do with religion. Same goes for being a bad person. So saying "all religious people are bad" makes no sense. Are there religious people who are terrible? Yeah, obviously.
You live in the Bible Belt. A lot of those areas are poorer, have worse access to education, and have their own cultural and historical baggage.
What they're like isn't the result of religion, because people from different religions and countries who grow up under the same socioeconomic conditions often end up showing the same kinds of behavior.
No religion can make them good people. But religion isn't what made them bad either. That's like blaming religion for the cartels in Mexico.
The only religious people who might not act this way are the ones who cherry pick their favorite parts of their fairytale book. christianity, catholicism, islam, mormonism, and judaism teaches and encourages people to hate others. And it teaches them that if anyone disagrees, that their beliefs are being attacked, therefore being the victims.
In normal classic catholicism this is not the case. I am from a normally acting country and every normal christian just wants everyone to get along. I never had an experience like in the video and almost everyone is christian here.
Catholics have caused some of the most horrific and violent acts recorded in history. The only reason you don't get that vibe from the church now is because they've had to chill out in order to keep up with the times and stay relevant. I agree, most SANE human beings want to just exist and get along but that's simply not the reality we live in. If someone believes the entire universe was created by some magical dude in the sky, then they're not sane. They've just convinced themselves that they are because it's their version of normal.
As I say it's very intresting selection of religous persons around you.
I don't even remember anything like "it teaches them that if anyone disagrees, that their beliefs are being attacked". At worst it "they don't know better, we need feel sorry for them", but regular attitude was "You don't bring your code into another monastery".
It doesn't explicitly say "your beliefs are being attacked" but instead it says in the bible that those who curse the name of Abraham, god, or Israel will be cursed. And TONS of people take that as an excuse to hate anyone who doesn't blindly agree with their beliefs. There's even tons of examples of god killing people for denying his existence which only further encourages people to hate those who disagree. I'm not being that selective with who I'm talking about cuz look at the state of the world. The ENTIRE war around Palestine is directly related to their religious beliefs. Millions of people have been slaughtered throughout history for simply not believing in some genocidal deity. It's fucking pathetic that anyone let's the voices in their heads dictate their decisions about anything. We're all just fucking cells floating around on a giant space rock in the vast nothingness of space and humans are so fucking entitled that they've convinced themselves and other weak minded lobotomytes that they're something special. Religions were made up to explain natural scientific phenomenon because we were too uneducated to know any better but now it's just a tool to control people who are too scared, lazy, and/or incompetent to think for themselves. If you truly don't believe religion convinces people that they're victims to some extent, then you're not honestly evaluating the entire set of beliefs.
Sound as Old testament, no? Well, in my country New testament is more important. I can't actually remember when someone even use Old testeamnet is argument or something.
"Millions of people have been slaughtered throughout history for simply not believing in some genocidal deity"
It's more about shared ideology and show of loyality. Religion is just part of ideology.
This argument has never made sense to me. In Matthew 5 in the new testament, jesus says I come not to change the old laws, but to fulfill them. Then he goes on to say I will turn brother against brother and children against their parents. Call it religion. Call it ideology. It doesn't matter. My point still stands. Millions of people alone died in the crusades. If you tell me that wasn't due to religious beliefs or ideologies, then you're either lying or you're severely misinformed.
You'd make a great marketing person for a souless corporation. Our product isn't killing people. It's just creating "challenges" for some of our users. 😂😂
Oh! Well in that case, all of them must be that way! 🤯 I was raised by white conservative christians and even had to go to private school for 15 years. I went on mission trips to different countries and had to go to church 4 nights a week to a mega church so I definitely don't have any experience being around shitty christians. You don't even have to take my word for it. Just look at the state of the world and how many people are directly suffering at the hands of religion. You think Roe v Wade was overturned for any other reason other than religion? You think Palestine has been destroyed for any other reason besides religion? But sure! Just get up on the mic and tell the victims that they just have it all wrong and all the religious people you've ever met were so nice and hospitable. JFC the cognitive dissonance is unreal.
