    These topics interest me because I can imagine how inflexible religious fundamentalists must be.

    Like, to atheists or satanists seeing a Christian display is at most annoying.

    For hardcore Christians seeing a satanic display is a literal challenge from God to be strong, to be loyal. They see it as a glitch in the matrix or some shit, like a virus.

    Same as Muslims and displays of Muhammad.

    They simply can’t compute the continued existence of such things.

    And it makes me laugh.

            I haven’t heard of Christians that kill over depictions of Christ, and to my knowledge the crusades were over centuries ago

            In fact, I’ve never once worried one of my actions might inspire a Christian to come and kill me, like labeling a stick figure “Muhammad” might do

              You must not live in the USA, or Poland or similar places full of Christian fundamentalists who go around killing people they don’t like.

              Or, are you trying to pull a “no true Scotman” fallacy on us?

              But nice try at moving goalposts. Fuck, it’s obvious what a horrific, toxic person you are. This is why you have no friends.

                Not the person you were answering, just want to butt in:

                If you say “you must not live in USA or Poland” isn’t that precisely what Hashtag NotAllChristians means?

                Because yes, there absolutely are rabid examples of people bombing abortion clinics or 2nd amendment Christofascists from Howdy Arabia, but the majority of Christians, at least in Europe are more or less quietly doing their own thing and not even going to church outside of Easter or Christmas. So yes, definitely #NotAllChristians.

                Doesn’t mean I agree with them, like them or want their delusions affecting our culture, but European Christianity has been dragged into the post-enlightenment world kicking and screaming. We as a civilization reigned in the worst excesses of organized religion, doesn’t mean it doesn’t still happen and doesn’t mean it’s peaceful and okay now, but at least we are at a point where the violent looneys are few and far between.

                  So you agree with me? Fantastic wall of text to say that.

                  That means nothing to everyone else while some still kill over it

                  while some still kill

                  See? Christians are just as bad as Muslims.

                  Fucknuckle was trying to hate on one religion while propping up their own. That bullshit should not stand.

                    Very much not religious, and not excusing Christianity, but go fuck your self if you think the levels of modern violence are comparable.

                    There is nothing I can draw on a piece of paper that will incite Christians to kill me on sight

          To be clear, it means everything to everyone. You’re being an asshole bigot here. Even worse, defending Christian terrorism.

          A bigoted hypocrite.

          This attitude is not welcome here, or anywhere.

            That you think the levels of violence are comparable is hilarious, and shows how much of a deluded bigot you are

            Projection, thy name is ASeriesOfPoorChoices, quite ironically

              I said the opposite. I never said the levels were comparable. In fact, I said comparing them, like you’re doing, is a fucked up thing to do.

              And I love how you claim -I’m- projecting. 🤣🤣

              You fucking clown. 🤡 🤦
