    Oh yes, I totally believe that they were really going to donate $7600, yep. And now they’re definitely going to give $7600 to St. Jude’s. Yeah right. I’ll bet they’ve never given a dime to anyone and don’t leave tips either.

    They weren’t going to donate shit. They just saw an opportunity to try to shit on someone else, and fabricated a lie.

          The unborn are a convenient group of people to advocate for. They never make demands of you; they are morally uncomplicated, unlike the incarcerated, addicted, or the chronically poor; they don’t resent your condescension or complain that you are not politically correct; unlike widows, they don’t ask you to question patriarchy; unlike orphans, they don’t need money, education, or childcare; unlike aliens, they don’t bring all that racial, cultural, and religious baggage that you dislike; they allow you to feel good about yourself without any work at creating or maintaining relationships; and when they are born, you can forget about them, because they cease to be unborn. You can love the unborn and advocate for them without substantially challenging your own wealth, power, or privilege, without re-imagining social structures, apologizing, or making reparations to anyone. They are, in short, the perfect people to love if you want to claim you love Jesus, but actually dislike people who breathe. Prisoners? Immigrants? The sick? The poor? Widows? Orphans? All the groups that are specifically mentioned in the Bible? They all get thrown under the bus for the unborn.

          -Pastor Dave Barnhart

            Yup punish the “sluts” with parenthood and poverty, punish gay people with children dying from cancer, punish the heathens by hanging and burning them on pyres. The only thing they want in this world is hell for everyone, and deep down they know there’s no god to give it to them so they have to do it themselves.

              I love the ‘deep down they know there’s no god’ as I’ve heard the exact opposite thing from theists.

                They’re not worried what a god thinks, only their congregation. There’s so much “behind the curtain” sinning that they certainly don’t act like there’s an omniscient god judging them.

                Hell, they do more sinning than me and I’ve dabbled in satanism.

          Only if the parents are heathens(or they need anything that cant be achieved by sending thoughts and prayers™) Then it’s gods punishment and they get to feel okay about condemning a literal baby to death.

      This is how we fix all problems the human race is encountering.
      Although, I’m pretty sure the bible has more to say on (and can be interpreted as against) the fun homosexual activities, rather than 2 homosexual parents

    You can do what you want with your own money, but it costs nothing to keep your bigoted opinions to yourself. Also, the quotes around “hateful” trigger me a bit. It wasn’t “hateful”, it was straight-up hateful.

      I used to not understand the concept of opportunity costs but now I’m beginning to believe that there is such a thing even when spouting disgusting, obnoxious, dogshit opinions. Like, some people in the world are losing out if they don’t take an opportunity to slander and disparage someone else.

      They’re lower than dirt.

          Well, that’s two religions, which are both part of the same family and are even arguably the same religion. That data doesn’t tell us anything about Shintos, Haudenosaunee, Sihks, Maori, Hellenists, Aztecs, realists, pantheists, Buddhists, Celts, or any number of other religions I could name.

          The problem is that people go their whole lives where the only religious people they interact with are Abrahamists, so they think Abrahamism is representative of all religions. But that’s an extraordinarily sheltered viewpoint, and no good has ever come of dismissing foreign cultures out of hand with no relevant data.

    Could you imagine being all powerful and creating same-sex attraction (or at least allowing it to be possible), but being so butthurt by it that you have to give babies cancer?

        I mean, I get that this is basically the last standing GOP policy, but to read those verses correctly, you have to remember that “to suffer” is another way to say “to put up with,” and he’s talking to his disciples, not the children. He’s just saying “Hey! Teachers! Leave them kids alone!”

          That is why they selectively read from passages - both amongst themselves (ignoring the parts where they were commanded to help others) and those they had read aloud to their slaves (there is where they read all those other passages!).

          Picking and choosing whatever people would like to believe - e.g. “God wants me to be RICH!” - is a very lucrative business model for pastors/priests/ministers. And quite a comfortable one for the believer too. None of those pesky “commands” like how the worker deserves his wages.

          It is exactly like how on January 6 the self-styled “patriots” rose up to “defend” American democracy. Jesus / God’s message - Love One Another - is fantastic, too bad the religion part gets in the way of it.

    If they didn’t want to donate, they could have said nothing. This is the worst sounding rejection.

    Ah, but at least they sent their prayers - that’ll make everything better /s

    Seriously though, how can people live with such vitrol in their hearts towards people who’ve done literally nothing to hurt them.
