These idiots projecting their religion onto a man who regularly makes fun of their religion is pretty weird by its self but mike is getting extra weird
I wonder if he’s one of those believers that the destruction of Israel will usher in the end times and Jesus’ return to earth and has the biggest boner right now over escalating this conflict.
I’m pretty sure he is. The weirder thing is I’m pretty sure he knows trying to bring about the rapture of one’s own will is a one way ticket strait down.
Those arrogant fucks think they can force God’s hand.
Incidentally, most of their end-times beliefs were made up in the 19th and early 20th centuries. It’s all a bunch of shitty fanfic from mentally unstable cultists. As opposed to mainstream Christianity, which is based on fanfic from deranged cultists from the first to fifth centuries AD, plus a bit of window-dressing added in the late Middle Ages.
I don’t think they do actually. Most of the super religious people in my family are Southern Baptist, they all firmly believe that they have a duty to spread the word of god because everybody living has to have been given the option to accept Jesus before the rapture can happen.
They are seriously a death cult who seriously want the rapture to happen and seriously believe they have a part in making it happen.
Never call yourself a philosopher, nor talk a great deal among the unlearned about theorems, but act conformably to them. Thus, at an entertainment, don’t talk how persons ought to eat, but eat as you ought. For remember that in this manner Socrates also universally avoided all ostentation. And when persons came to him and desired to be recommended by him to philosophers, he took and- recommended them, so well did he bear being overlooked. So that if ever any talk should happen among the unlearned concerning philosophic theorems, be you, for the most part, silent. For there is great danger in immediately throwing out what you have not digested. And, if anyone tells you that you know nothing, and you are not nettled at it, then you may be sure that you have begun your business. For sheep don’t throw up the grass to show the shepherds how much they have eaten; but, inwardly digesting their food, they outwardly produce wool and milk. Thus, therefore, do you likewise not show theorems to the unlearned, but the actions produced by them after they have been digested.
It’s the act of trying to make it come on your schedule. Doesn’t matter to mcchristians but no one is supposed to know when it would happen. Also runs afowl of putting ones own judgment above god but that’s a borderline scholarly argument these people don’t have the capacity to consider
I’m not Christian so I don’t really have a skin in the game but insofar as I’m still Lutheran: No, those people aren’t Christian. Well, actual Lutherans would never say it like that but talk about “people regrettably being in grave error” but same difference.
Point being is that you can’t profess to follow a religion if you ignore core tenets. You can’t be a dancer if you never dance. And you can’t be a Christian if your creed boils down to “Jesus was too woke”.
Your religion is evil and always has been.
Christianity has always been self-righteous and arrogant (see the Lutheran “charity” above), but that’s not the same as evil – otherwise the French would also be inherently evil. They can, indeed, be quite rad on occasion.
Not my religion. I just read and don’t paint people with broad brushes. A grand total of 9% of Christians have read the bible; like you, captain armchair, people just don’t like to read.

I prefer cult classic over new cult.

It is not those who hear the law, but those who do the law, who shall be delivered.
It’s astonishing how many self-professed Christians straight-up ignore Romans 2.
Epictetus puts it even better though:

Yeah, they’re an incredible arrogant bunch of racist tent-show snake-juggling hucketers.
The only Evanglicals I’ve ever met who try to walk the walk are from the Black churches.
Sorry that it makes you uncomfortable, but they are Christians too.
