Slinky don't fall far from the previous step sometimes

Eh people overblow what Jesus did to the moneychangers and merchants in the temple. Yeah he made a whip and used it to drive the animals out, and he flipped over the tables scattering the money everywhere. But he never tried to to hurt people, just get them out of the temple and disrupt all the commerce going on.

Jesus Christ Superstar's temple scene is probably the most accurate recreation of that passage as written in the Bible. He trashed all the stuff, flipped tables and sent everyone else away.

While true, can you imagine Fox news' coverage of just such an action today? He might as well have [redacted] by the way those actions would be portrayed.

J'ai repris deux fois des frites ce soir, bye bye Jean-Marie, tu ne nous manqueras pas.

She is just as racist as her dad. But not as dead yet.

[durbanpoison@feddit.nl]

Ah

So she's having a shit day.

I can celebrate at that at, least

[greenknight23@lemmy.world]

remember kids, if you get upset when Nazis die, you're a Nazi sympathizer.

[clbull@lemmy.world]

She expelled her dad from the party for not toning down his rhetoric.

That man looks like a demon wearing a human suit.

The apostles are not completely fine with wealth either. Peter has the story with Hanniah and Sapphira, where god punishes greed and sharing everything in the early Jerusalem Christian community is the norm. Paul at least has a few being responsible with wealth statements like this one: 1 Timothy 6:17-19
17 Command those who are rich in this present world not to be arrogant nor to put their hope in wealth, which is so uncertain, but to put their hope in God, who richly provides us with everything for our enjoyment.
18 Command them to do good, to be rich in good deeds, and to be generous and willing to share.
19 In this way they will lay up treasure for themselves as a firm foundation for the coming age, so that they may take hold of the life that is truly life.

my disagreements with the Christian community at large are a big part (but not the only part) of why I'm no longer a Christian. The guy I read about and the guy they seem to be thinking of are two different people.

Same. I still remember the day that I basically paraphrased a Jesus quote in a discussion of current events with my family, and someone asked me if I was some kind of communist and multiple others piled on with no one coming to my defense.

Apparently, actually believing the shit they taught me makes me some kind of radical...

[chuckleslord@lemmy.world]

Ex-catholic. Fuck Paul and his stupid, Roman ass shit. Ruined the whole thing, honestly.

[kellenved@sh.itjust.works]

Fuck Paul. Amen. Guy had some issues.

her father is blatantly racist, an idealist; she on the other hand is a politician who knows that she can be a president one day

open racism is still a taboo in france, but it's politely everywhere. Doesn't mean that she's not racist; just that she knows that she doesn't need to say it

Most people in France don't want to "be" racists, they prefer their racism to be invisible like air; all around them but mostly imperceptible

[anarchistartificer@slrpnk.net]

I'm not a Christian, but Jesus seems pretty based.

[anarchistartificer@slrpnk.net]

I hate people who say shit like "if you're glad a nazi died, you're as bad as they are". Even something phrased in a more inflammatory manner, like "all Nazis must die" still wouldn't make me anything like them. The crux of the matter is that people like me, who the Nazis would prefer to be dead, will always be a target for their bigotry; I will always be a queer cripple. Whereas a Nazi can grow the hell up, recognise our shared humanity and stop being a bloody Nazi. Depending on how much harm they caused as a Nazi, it might take a fair bit of work to redeem themselves in the eyes of their community (and some people may never feel okay associating with them), but ultimately it's their choice — they're actively opting out of the social contract and they're welcome at any point to opt back in (if they're willing to do the work that involves)

Jesus was a communist and any Christian who believes the teachings of Jesus is a communist too.

[caseyweederman@lemmy.ca]

In the new testament, Jesus went and braided a whip out of leather -- a process which takes several hours, meaning this was cold rage and not hot impulse -- and proceeded to thrash the shit out of a bunch of people profiteering off of religion.
