i really don’t like that idea that some christians have, i’m catholic myself and yes we rely on the bible and its teachings as a way to live, i follow the lessons of my church administration and so on. but i don’t believe in the argument that the bible is the moral baseline, yes i follow the bible but i have my morals of what is right and wrong, that happen to follow the teachings of the bible. i value life and kindness of all beings over anything, and i thoroughly believe in the motto +
There’s no such thing as absolute morals even if people believe in a god, morals are something people come up with themselves that are influenced by the world around them, over time certain things become socially acceptable and others don’t as people continue existing and observing in societies
You don’t get a loading screen before you’re born telling you which laws exist and why, or what the general consensus is on certain beliefs or issues, you learn those things as you grow up and start forming your own opinions based on how you feel about what you know about the world
Except they can be, again BABIES that know NOTHING ELSE show basic empathy and morality They don’t know a god They don’t know a divine being And yet they can understand right from wrong 🤨 interesting I understand your point You need a book to tell you not to be bad, that’s ok, just tell us more about how you’re not actually a good person
It doesn’t actually, you read what you wanna read lmao Not once did I say I was perfect, I just don’t need a book to tell me to do the right thing, and I don’t need the idea of someone watching me constantly to be good I don’t need the threat of damnation to scare me into being a good person, which is what Christianity is, it’s a bribe basically, a bribe from a god that claims they love everyone but condones slavery
I was getting at the fact that Christians often use religion to bully people that are different. Most commonly they target people that are gay/trans etc. like I was saying, if it doesn’t concern you directly, don’t use religion to bully and belittle people. It’s not what religion teaches us
She was between 12-16 based off Christian historian speculation…and yk…the fact that it was for some reason normal then…she wouldn’t have been in her 20’s or anywhere near it cuz they would have married her off by 15…which oh yea god condones that supposedly too…seeing as priests like to touch children around that age…ask me how I know THAT information…
It is specifically stated he was a Jew…he was born in Jerusalem…he was born to a Jewish mother…first century Judea…may not be modern Judaism but that doesn’t change the fact that he was in fact Jewish 💀 bsfr Christianity itself was not a thing until after his death, he was literally a Jewish rabbi, as is stated in the Bible he celebrated Passover, worshipped in synagogues on the sabbath, he was also supposedly referred to by Roman’s as the king of the Jews…so…
