Pagans weren't assholes as well when they went about ripping up each others entrails to fortell the future? News to me. People seem so hooked on "manifestations", well, this isn't a court of law. I don't have to wait for someone to act out their bloody little tendencies to say "asshole", it's just my opinion. Where would these "manifestations" spring from if people weren't so callous that they didn't stop and think to themselves "wait a minute wtf?" I understand and appreciate some peoples situation, born and raised to believe (my wife for example), but exactly what does that excuse them from when it comes to my main point of contention? Precisely nothing. Peoples beliefs don't get them kid gloves from me. In the long list of things that people can be or do to deserve the "asshole" title this is just one that makes my personal list. Nothing more, nothing less. Is an unfaithful spouse as asshole? Depends on who you ask, a tax evader? Again, depends. Well, for me, christian = asshole. No worries, we all have a little asshole in us here and there, and I wouldn't say that an asshole is all that any christian is (in totality), but it's definitely present.
"Well, as a christian I don't see the christ narrative the way you do"
-"that's because you're an asshole"-
Look, Summer, find me a christian that says "No thank you, I'll handle my own shortcomings myself, I made those choices and it's up to me to shoulder the consequences. Take christ down off that cross and send me to hell if I deserve it, I won't be party to your little blood magic bullshit" -then I'll reverse myself. Hell, I might ask him how one goes about becoming a member of his goddamned church. Those who -require/demand/accept/profess the sanctity of- the sacrifice of others to feel redeemed or worthwhile themselves aren't going to get any pleasantries from me, period.
