I need to lose weight tbh

@FailurePersonified I disagree about love, look up agape. Gods love isnt less than ours, its much higher.

@FailurePersonified most of my beliefs can be renconciled with different christian traditions actually, though i dont consider myself a christian. I believe jesus is God. I'm just a monist panentheist and I believe in karma and trasmigration of souls and the ultimate liberation of all beings who return to God.

these christians who hate and deny Gods love, Christ would say he never knew you

@meeper @sarvo I never zoomed in on it so I'm just learning this

I probably know fifty or more sanskrit words at this point, maybe 100

graf is a good person but poast was a mistake

another day debating chuds I guess

@gucciloafers @ChristiJunior @Goalkeeper @matty @Frondeur @James_Dixon except I love jesus and have nothing but respect for people who follow him

@James_Dixon @ChristiJunior @Goalkeeper @matty @Frondeur I'll not address your initial threat to me with more than this, but I must direct you to acts 3:17 "Yet now, brethren, I know that you did it in ignorance, as did also your rulers". jesus forgave the jews, except obviously judas, who certainly resides in hellfire.

your statement that the romans were uniquely ignorant and thus blameless is unrealistic. you know pilate was said in luke to have mixed the blood of murdered jews with their animal sacrifices right? all contemporary sources about him show he was a very evil man. you are interpreting the romans as upright but thats just not true. they were a powerful empire, they were not likely browbeat into executing anyone. the roman guards humiliated and beat jesus, the soldiers divided his clothes. pilate is only made partly sympathetic in the bible to appeal to the new roman converts according to nearly all historians, and I'm interested in what happened to the actual jesus, a man who lived, died, and was ressurected.

as far as the guilt of the pharisees goes, most jews werent lawmakers and scribes, but were lay-believers.

here's more reading for you:

@fkq1q2r2 @alpha60 I dont want anyone to starve thats kinda my whole point. and I believe that that God exhibits both perfect justice and perfect mercy.

@meowski @ChristiJunior @James_Dixon my source is quite new and its from a libertarian think tank lmao

@meowski @ChristiJunior @James_Dixon yes, you were told that using the approach of households instead of individuals is misleading.

@vriska I mean yeah but they were lobotomized for lesbianism not for wearing pants

@meowski @ChristiJunior @James_Dixon you believe a lot of nonsense but I'll just shoot with this

@vriska those were (at least mostly) lesbians specifically but agree with the general sentiment

@James_Dixon @ChristiJunior @Goalkeeper disagree with most of this but I'll make this quicker, this boils down to your last point that immigrants are "lying thieves". obviously lying thieves shouldnt be given much, so you dont believe in charitable attitudes towards them. but youre wrong, most immigrants are peaceful and just want to provide for their house, just like you.

@James_Dixon @ChristiJunior @Goalkeeper @matty @Frondeur just want to say that I appreciate you engaging with me in a serious manner instead of being actively cruel and just calling me a jew or saying refugees should be murdered. I dont believe this interpretation though, that the jews (besides Judas and others who knew jesus personally) all knew exactly what they were doing and that jesus only referred to the romans. they didnt believe that jesus was God, if they knew He was God they likely wouldnt have been involved in his death. many of the romans were doing what they thought was right and snuffing out the movement of a man who many thought was a dissident king, and many of the jews were doing what they thought was right and snuffing out what they thought was a man who committing a grave sin by claiming to be I AM, God. in the bible unintentional sins are treated much more leniently than intentional sins, and jesus saying "forgive them father" is an extension of that. of course, for judas, he was not only betraying a friend, but committing to death the man who he knew to be God himself, holy and perfectly sinless.

@alpha60 God is love, you should try to be more like Him

@vonzeppelin SSRIs are great at making you "content" with misery
